Well done mate. Seems a long lead time to the nats. I guess you’re going to have a good poke around on the way there.

Yeah it is going a week earlier than it really needs to - shipping to Melbourne this year instead of Adelaide and we are flying in on May 23 so a week earlier than usual. Having a 4 week break this time instead of the usual 3 when doing an Eastern states Nationals seeing as we only had 2 weeks last year. Being involved in organising the last 2 Nationals it will be good this year to just be an entrant and be able to relax and socialise all weekend. :D :D

The Bluetooth radio I ordered 7 weeks ago turned up today - we are going to the ZZtop concert tonight so I will not have time to install it before the ute goes tomorrow- looks like a job for when we get to my mates place in Stratford …..

Got the wireless installed before dropping the ute off at CEVA - all the wires had already been run but I changed my mind on where to put it , they still reached but only just - will tidy it up later
Was nice driving it down this morning with the heater going and the cruise control doing its thing
