When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

If the nationals were held in summer this covo would be all about over heating cars, lack of shelter at the show and shine's, etc.
So just suck it up ladies :shh: :lol: .

You're probably right Trev, why would you want to get around in shorts and a t shirt drinking ice cold beers to cool you down when you can be wearing snow gear and pulling your numb lips off the top of a frozen beer :D :D :D :D :D :D
