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

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

Yeah I rang them today and the lady said the same as you.

I hope they've got warm water for bucket washing - blasted hoses might be solid..

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

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

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

frats,
Rosco

Mick - that's been extremely high on our Cowra agenda since this nats were announced....
We've got a hidden agenda here.....

At Darwin - in the aviation museum, we got real up and close personal to a Japanese pilot who flew in the Pearl Harbour, Midway and Darwin attacks .... all in the one Mitsubishi aeroplane.... the remains of which were found in New Guinea and on display in the museum....... he was taken POW and ended up in Cowra..... and found opportunity to pay the ultimate price to his Emporer...

I have a final "chapter" to write into my personal history on this... I'm just hoping his war record is revealed....

frats,
Rosco
