The portaball should fit. Mooey simply needs to carry the curry pot on his lap while the rods can go in the boot....
must be exciting for him to try out one of the mother of all singastro scopes in mersing! I'm tempted, man but have other commitments.
do enjoy folks!

Whoa!... have you really tried sitting in a car for three hours with the portaball currypot on your lap? I don't think it will be very comfortable, more of a test of endurance... ask Hendry for his opinion, as he had already 'endured' doing that going to-and-fro from Tuas.
