Ok, what do we need to do to get this going?
Be a good idea to all meet up and have a meal/beer/chat.
Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and
oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital
ingredient in beer

Beer sounds good :) , on a weekend would be good for me , as Wayne said a halfway point would probably be the way to go, but will go with the flow with what everyone else thinks .

It's looking like a goer so far, just need to get attendance at a meeting and we are off and running. When you say october, do you mean to coincide with the baskerville historics race meeting?

Hello fellow Ozzies from our island state,
our Vic club did a 10 day tour of your wonderful state back in the mid 2,000 in March.
We had a most wonderful time down with our Taswegian countrymen.

In particular, we met up with a great group of FB/EK owners at St. Helens - some of which continue to post on this forum.
In Hobart, we met up with another group at Risdon (no, not behind the walls) where we stayed.
Here we are, some 10 years later - and I am bewildered that a Tasmania club has not yet formed.

There are now only two states/territories that have not yet formed clubs in this great land of ours - I can probably understand why the N.T. hasn't, due to the population density vs area - but, Tasmania?... you have a wonderful state, some great FB/EK people and a collection of vehicles which are just begging to bear a "FB - EK Holden car club of Tasmania" sticker/badge on them...

I can appreciate that the majority of members would be located in either Hobart or Launceston, but for a few sheckles/year - many members could join as "country" members to get your numbers together.

We had some great trips in Tasmania - it's just a lovely place to drive one of our old buses around... with just so many differing terrains - you have the lot down there - club runs are just begging for your consideration.

And, don't take any notice of the slant at your weather - we're not all that much better here in Victoria during the colder months.

Your summer/early autumn would be an ideal opportunity for anyone to slip over on the "Spirit" and take in what your great state has to offer.

I wish you every success in finally getting your club mobile.

frats,
Rosco
