G'day all I would like to say thank you all for past 4 years.

Some you know me well and some you dont...(your loss) hehhe

anyway I have joined Korean Army and I will be away for next two years as Medic in South Korean Army.

It was hard choice to leave my family and friends, I've lived in Perth for last 13 years, I have been longer in Australia than South Korea.

I only have good no Great experience of Australian culture and people.

I am citizen of Republic of Korea and I believe its my duty to serve my own country and protect our people.

Its very tense in Korean penisula with north korean nuclear testing and break down of peace talk. However I beleive there will be peaceful solutoin to this... if not I guess I might have to actually use force, in my case fix people as medical officer.

As of next monday and next two years I will be working in Red Cross division of South Korean Army.

I will pop in say hello time to time :)

I wish you all for best of luck in your life.

especially I would like to thanks to Dan, Lizz and Boostzor and others sorry I forgot most of your name.

Thank you and good bye.

Cheers

Joey :P

I'll Be Back... :)

Even though I never got to meet you, best of luck with everything. It takes a lot of courage to take such a big step and the world would be a better place if there were more people as selfless and as caring as you in it. Good job mate you should be proud of yourself.

All the best,

Sasha

:(

Just keep your head down and only volunteer for stuff like getting drinks and reporting to headquarters and such and you will be fine. I hope Basic is not too rough though. Try to stay off gravel as we know you have trouble with your footing in that harsh environment :(

  • 5 months later...

G'day all , I am still alive and kicking :P I can not believe its been 6 months since Ive left the Perth.

I am in ROK as Medical officer, working in the army hospital Orthopedic surgery. I have seen alots of bronken legs and cruciate ligament damages.

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
