I have a quick question

My mate has entered his newly restored FB into the nats. We were hoping to travel with him in convoy with an FJ and an FE.
Are we able to tag along on the saturday in the cruise events or is it for FB EK's only? Happy to pay some sort of fee to tag along, we just wont all fit in his FB!

Looking forward to it!
Dave

Hi Dave

That's fine. Just jump on the back of the convoy...it's usually the best place to be anyway as you get to see all the FB EK out the front windscreen.

funny that Pauly it's actually basically opposite the cowra tourism place it's real easy to find if you know cowra at all there's a Mc Donalds and it's opposite that basically under the bridge that goes over the river

Rosco gotta get colder than that to freeze the hose, and it's a nice day again here today

[rosco]

Thanks, Mick - I tried to find the park..... someone's not doing their job up there in the tourism place.... or it's been recently re-named... or the sign has been removed.... or...... well, "Where-is" doesn't know where to find it - so it doesn't exist!.... blasted Telstra - think the software is written off-shore...... and - whilst on on my hate speel - why aren't public toilets listed in one of the POI's...... or am I missing something....?

Just keep that sunny weather running for about another week, please.... we're starting to get cold stuff down here - and I'm starting to grumble...... be nice to run north with the geese and help you share some of that sunlight...

I fully expect your time will come for frozen hoses.... we get our sub zero's here July through early September..... bit nippy out on the golf course at first light....

frats,
Rosco

[Thommo]

The weather is on the improve in SA, so that should move east.
I'm betting on a dry Nationals, weather wise at least.

Those temperatures aren't too bad. I'm sure it was colder in Wangaratta last year. I think some of the mornings there were 0 degrees

[Mick]

yeah thommo it seems what ever you get there we get a few days later

rosco there's public toilets there plus as mentioned McDonalds across the road and the tourist info centre and another small food shop there, remember if you want to kill time go into the tourist info centre and see the hologram about the cowra breakout, the breakout of POW prisoners from a POW camp at cowra

[rosco]

Whatever it will be - it'll be "snug" - the company and commeraderie of any nats is warming enough......

frats,
Rosco
