On our way !!!

Flew into Melbourne today , picked up the red rattler from Ceva

Cruised down to Torquay , found the perfect place for a late lunch 8) :ebiggrin:

Then a quick look at Bells Beach - too bloody cold to get out of the car though :shock: - before parking up at Anglesea for the night

Is that where you are from ? No he isn't - he is more interested in making money from subdivisions.

well, I can't start a new post because of that stupid security problem with this website - I would like to thank Brett , Robyn and Tracey for their efforts in organising the Nat's this year , and to announce that next years Nat's will be held in Mandurah, Western Australia . I will post up properly when I get home and can get on a proper computer.

About to get on the big boat returning home after a super weekend.
Many thanks to Bumpar, Robin, Tracey, Bumpars mum and dad. A wonderful job did surely silence the critics.
