I then put him my pocket and took him around the office to meet a few people. Needless to say most just looked at me blankly when I introduced them to a Sunbird badge. They just dont see past the fact that a piece of metal has personality and character..... twits..... A couple of people even suggested I belong in the looney bin.
I had visions of a Big T staring special guest "Budgie" version of Sam Newman's taking it to the streets segment that's on the footy show.

After arriving at work last Monday (geeze, its been a week already !!) he got up to a bit of mischief in the office but settled down after I gave him some "time out" in the stationary cupboard. I introduced him to some of my co-workers and as he was very polite and well mannered I decided to take him to the QTCC monthly meeting. He sat in my pocket for the whole meeting and was given a formal welcome at the beginning. He even signed his name in the guest book !!
Wednesday night was State of Origin and he hung out with Gordie, my stuffed Cane Toad, ate cockroaches and drank XXXX. Hopefully I have educated him enough in the Queenslander way and he will maintain his loyalty to the Maroons!!
The rest of the week was fairly quiet for Budge, sitting around at home telling me stories of his adventures, y'know, partying with Jol, getting kidnapped at Roo's house, getting pissed with Liam, Heath, Matt, Em and co, chilling out with Col and the mad escape from the law with the help of Rob....Dammit. If Budgie has left out any stories, blame his short term memory, not mine
I felt that Budgie needed a treat for being such a good ...um...Budgie, so on Saturday I packed him some sangas and sunscreen and we headed off to Willowbank for the qualifying day of the Winternationals. Did he have a ball or what !! He saw Top Fuelers, Door Slammers, Nitro Funny Cars and heaps of tough Toranas. He saw Whincup flog Lowndes in the Supercars (10.82 sec). We ran into Steve (mumstaxi) and had a look at his UC. Budgie was even allowed to sit in the engine bay !! We had a good close look at Angie Dows HER350 (Angie wasnt around to have a photo with Budge but her Dad invited us to have a closer look at the car and take some photos - Nice bloke !!). All in all, we both had a great day and were pooped when we got home.
Anyway, enough of the jibber jabber, here are some photos from the drags.

I took him in, gave him a feed, a bath and some fresh clothes and then booked him on the next postal run to NSW.
Yesterday arvo I said goodbye to Budgie, presented him with an honourary membership to the QLD Torana Car Club (member #1900), gave him a lunch pack of vegemite sanga's, fruit juice and a couple of Anzac biscuits and sent him on his way.
Where has he gone? Well, that is a secret for now but all will be revieled in the fullness of time.
Cheers,
Tony
BTW - *sob* I miss the little fella already......

Seems he hitched a ride in a combi with some blokes who told him they were on their way to the "mothership landing" he ended up high as a a kite in central Australia for a few days before managing to hitch a ride with one of my trucks heading back from WA.
Anyway, he has been relaxing around home and has come to work with me a few times, but this was what we got up to on the weekend-
Budgie and Carla checking out the new ute-
I then put him to work sussing out the bonnet for the HX while I played with the radiator support.
after a little while, the little tacker popped off for a beer with the garden locals-
He has had a few adventures here at work over the past week or so aswell! Will throw the photos up when I get a chance.
Budgie was pissed that we forgot to take him to the snow on the weekend though!

The local cane toads here are still recovering from having their backs constantly licked by our mate Budgie.
That would explain the 1 HUGE eye & the insatiable thirst! lol
