He sounds like an entertaining Uncle.

You could say that. He wasn't much adapted for modern living I think. Kept losing his drivers licence for drink driving, so he just stopped getting his licence in the end, living in the country anyway. He had a cat way back then that he seriously named "dickhead".

That makes him even more appealing I don't always feel like a good fit for modern civilization

Yeah, had some interesting times. Been eel fishing with him and his dad had made his own smoke house, so smoked eel is very nice. Plus he would also do a lot of rabbiting with ferrets and nets over the borough entrances. So I've seen rabbits being killed and skinned for eating. BBQ wild rabbit is also very nice.

Random information:   On the side of the flasher there is a small hole that you can stick a bent paper clip into and tun them off

*filing away that info for future roadtrips*  :laugh:

Even though it would be a dead giveaway to have score marks on the side of your pickup you should keep score in a discrete notebook.

In North Carolina, the policeman would probably arrest you.  They arrested Joseph Carnevale for making this sculpture:

 ^ :lol: The road cone people were apparently ok with it, though, as it got drivers' attention about the road being blocked off.

Here is what Aussie ones look like:


Those stick ones are everywhere now. I don't hit them but I see plenty of them knocked over. :D

The tall ones are harder to knock down I prefer the the smaller ones but won't ship the big ones

I toook out a line of about 8 of the stick ones that were keeping traffic out of one lane on dual carriageway with a transit van while I was trying to light a ciggy.
