Uhhh would offer you a lift Sheather as I would like to go too, but my car broke down last Thursday evening in Ryde. I was on my way to drive back to Brisbane when the coolant level/temperature warning light started blinking madly. I was on a main road in heavy traffic in the furtherest right hand lane so I couldn't pull over easily, so the car started smoking from under the bonnet... I managed to turn off and pull over in a side rd, then a couple of hours later my car got towed to a repairers. Guess I'm lucky it happened near the heart of Sydney, rather than say two hours north of Sydney. My car was full of luggage though which was a pain to recover the next day, by public transport. Anywho, I got a plane back to Brisbane last Friday; and I have access to a manual car here... however I don't have my manual license. So if you have an open manual license I can whack on the L-plates and drive us there. I'm actually heading back to Sydney this Wednesday aswell - racq are putting me on a train/coach to go pick up my car when the repairs should be complete. Then I'll be driving it back to Brisbane just before Christmas. phew!
