Yeah, know how you feel Black Panther. Mr Blue Thunder will be out there this afternoon cleaning our pride and joy for about 4-6 hours ready for tomorrow. I for one am worried about that rain too, and I know he certainly won't be a happy boy if his baby gets wet. You might here the four letter words coming from our place if it does. Pings you off when you put so much effort in!!! Oh well all I can say is take a bucket and a cleaning cloth. See you tomorrow (BLOODY EARLY)

Nothing Special about it? It is the same colour as my car! That makes it very very special. : Your car looks very tidy and I am pretty sure I had a perve at it myself today. You should be proud! And to think you were worried about your little rendezvous with a brick wall the night before!

G'day All,

First things first. A big thank you must go to Bob and the crew from the GT Owners Club for an outstanding effort in putting on the show under what was very trying conditions cheers guys and gals top job.:sm_headba

Next, thanks to the Wilsons, O'Mearas, The Don and Shane Wardrop for giving up a large chunk of yesterday to help with the setup, it was wet then hot but we got the job done.

Thanks to all that braved the rain to pull everything down this arvo, your help is always appreciated.

Well done and well deserved Big Al, Noddy is right, that is a very, very tidy car (even if it is an eight)

Lastly, to all the clubbies that came along to fly the colours and display their awesome cars you are champions. That's the thing that makes our club great, we were dripping wet but not a mumble from anyone just smiles and laughter and the usual good friendship.

Cheers,

Ken

PS. Our ranks continue to grow, we signed up 4 new (paid) members and handed out 16 more membership forms, all of which were posting or depositing money this week. Ya can't keep a good club down!!
