@John did you by any chance have 4852 yesterday?

Yes I did. From half 12 to half 3

Ahh yes that timeframe is right, as I needed it I snapped it and just looking at the photo now I thought theres a chance it might be you  ;D

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

@Rob in this case not guilty as at 1023 I was on my laptop at trainbasher HQ checking if I had emails from any possible clients

Just passed Tony on Corporation st in town, guessing on his way to Miller st to join the other inspectors that stopped me X51 this morning ;) (why is it always when I'm already late I get slowed down even more?)
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....

Was that Tony precariously situated on Five Ways Island this afternoon? He got some good shots of the road rage incident ;)
