BBS RS 15×8 +15

bbs_rs_zen
Have always loved BBS RS’s although I never thought I’d ever own a set.

I spotted an immaculate set on Yahoo Auctions Japan which was set to go over $2,500 (which apparently is about right for some freshly built ones), was about to place a bid on them, but then this set came up locally for $1500 and I didn’t hesitate to grab them!

I’m looking forward to being a wheel whore with the MX-5. I’ve got a set of Watanabe’s on order. A set of SSR meshies waiting for me at JDMyard and now this set of BBS RS’. Happy Days!

Grand Theft Auto V

Goodbye world.

The last time I bought a Playstation, it was to play Grand Theft Auto III, which I had to source from NZ as it was banned in Australia because you could bang a prostitute, then beat her up to take your money back (!).

I couldn’t resist the Grand Theft Auto V hype (damn there’s $O much hype around things these days?!), and despite the PS3 being an old console I had to buy one in order to play GTA 5. I found this bundle at JB, plug and play, the game is great, graphics are nuts and I’m totally addicted. Goodbye world. See you in a week!

Maroubra Beach to Bondi Beach Coastal Walk

Spent the glorious day in the sun with Jess today. We thought we’d do the coastal walk from Maroubra Beach to Coogee, but ended up going all the way through to Bondi Beach (then then Bondi Junction to catch a bus back home!!!).


Lurline Bay.


Hey Jess!


Serious rock hopping.


Don’t touch my flowers… please.


Lots of nice houses to admire.


Love these wooden walkways over the marsh areas close to Coogee Beach.
