That's the BP servo! I'm about 1.5km from there. I used to get my car washed at the old Red Rooter site till I started doing it at home again.

The Shell on Cotham is my V Power Racing source. I'm only 800m from there.

Sounds like we are locals.

Respect.

I don't like that Magic car wash place.. It is originated on Hoddle street opposite to Collingwood townhall. I started to go there about 10 years ago when I just want to detail my car before getting sold. Coz there was a car place next door and I love to look at there 2nd hand spotless cars. I still go there a lot although the owner has changed many times since then. The owner is the previous employee there. They are the only one that does not make any scatches to the car. Otherwise, I do my washing at the carwash on Whitehorse road, Deepdene. You prob see my white Kluger more. I only drive my 8 every now and then. Work is just up north about 3 km away.

The best wash I think is at Thomastown. Final inspection is just too far for me.

Taka lives very close to the Red Rooter. As does my sis. I was going to build a house further up in Kew near Kew junction, but decided to sell the land cos I prefer to live in the city.

I am around the corner from Cotham Shell. Literally. 100-200m away.

I guess you could say we live in or around Far Kew! :wink:

I never tire of that joke :smile:

Lived in Kew for 22 years, before moving barely 600m to just over the border into Balwyn. Also was a Carey Fairy for 13 years, so I'm definitely local.

You smoked too much crack at Uni mate. You and I first year at Uni in 1994, our Year 12 was in 1993. I got out of uni end of 99. You were a high flier by then mate.

You don't know what you missed out on at Uni mate. Ask some of your fellow medicos particularly the one who is divorced from my friend. We had a ball! Haha. Anyway yes, Year 12 was indeed 1993. I counted backwards and came to that year too.

I should sue the Melbourne Uni for their location of medical school. I missed out on too much fun.

All medical schools are located at the corner of the university. Do you realise that? Perhaps except a few new ones.

For me, Med school was just a bit far from Union house where the commerce students are ... I was just too lazy perhaps.

Dodgy is a doctor too and I assumed he went to Melb Uni hence his response. Commerce building is actually next to the library, so not far from you. But we hang out at Union house because which sane Commerce student go to class anyway???
