Trying to crib a few years? lol.

If you got it in NSW in 1970 you'd have had P's (ie for first licence).

I got my licence in NSW in 1967 and had P's.

Then I got it again in 1968, then 1969.... then I came up to Qld and got a five year unrestricted licence.

They reckon cops are hard these days.... sheesh...

Translation.
Congratulations Kyro, do you know where I live? Come and pick me up one day and we can explore the countryside in your beautiful automobile.

You now have the freedom to go anywhere you please, just don’t wrap the thing around a pole trying to impress your mates.

yeah been driving from 7am yesterday to 4am this morning when to see st kilda st (lol) no we went for a cruise there to muck 'round with the prostetutes*sp ... we wanted to see which is female and which is male... we came across 2 that talked like blokes... and they charge $100 an hour... i wasn't interested in 'em hell no, but had fun asking jokingly about them lol

oh i hit a cat too... in bundoora just at night 3am seen him at last second swerved, knicked him with guard.. but he ran off.

a tank of fuel lasted me all that time, filled a full tank again but no money to refill so i'm limited to what to do for a week :P

i went got my brakes quoted/test drove cause of me heavy braking at winton an the guy is like i probably glazed the brakes an probably won't be air in lines or master cylinder, but he is going to check it on monday for me.. (brake pedal goes near the floor) ... i can stop but i want it stiff again !

thanks for your comments, well i definately drive 10 k's under the limit cause my speedo is out , rather not get a speeding ticket goin fast :P
