Clearly things are more different down in Australia than here even besides driving on the wrong side of the road. Reading what Eddie took the time to tell us about this particular !QUOT!leak!QUOT! would prove that it wasn't really a leak but rather a flooded engine. I don't even know why I respond to half the stuff I respond to here. I guess it's to keep my abiding fans in total entertainment amused by my complete and utter continued finding that my hypocricacy has no bounds and I will argue with a dead horse when given the opportunity.
Sean, Just for what its worth mate and myself being an Aussie also I thought you might get a kick out of the reason we do drive actually on the left side (besides being upside down)......
Iam not 100% sure of the facts here but the story sounded pretty good to me!
I heard a long while ago that the real reason that the Scots, Irish, English and Aussies etc etc. drive on the left now days is that it goes way back in history to pre car, even pre firearm days in good old Europe.... Apparently in the old days of horse travel and when one only had a sword to use for self protection it was advisable and customary to always approach any on coming and unknown traveler on the road/trail etc with utmost caution and always pass on the left side just in case you may need to draw your sword in self protection...
