Dave, nah. That is a bit different to advertising for a service to the general public. Besides, who hasn't helped a mate/rello or family friend every now and again? Fuel and some carton currency is par for the course and is a given. Doing this sort of thing (from what I understand) isn't what the fun police are trying to stop, it is the person/s who advertise it for a fee and trying to make money from their car over and above "costs".

Flammers, dunno about that one. I'm not into the car club scene so have no idea how that works but can see what you're referring to. Clubs cost money to run/insure etc so guess it is all going to a good cause in the end. I would think they'd have their own set of rules to be complied with for it to happen?

Byron, she's gorgeous. It must have broken your heart to see her drive away...

James, I'd just settle for two years of spare time just to catch up on all of the stuff I want to get done now, let alone what else I would like to do before I shuffle off! PLI is a killer though, gone are the days when they had a "one size fits all" type of small business policy that was above all, affordable. Now it is all about what the insurance company can weasel out of and getting top dollar for the right to fleece you.

Times have certainly changed from the hardworking but carefree days of the 80's and 90's I remember - and I'm not all that old!
