Default good memory

Hi Bob,
Its all about old friends and a good memory, I started in the late 1960s when this stuff was around just for the grabs, at that time I knew people like Hughes in Melbourne and the Hudson brothers also in Melb I bought bins from Hudsons for $10 each speedo cables $5 track winches $25 with handles jacks and handles @35 each the list rolls on carriers were no more than $300 and I mean straight from the army. track was every where I have seen it used in driveways to drive over even seen it welded together and used as a fence, I knew a lot of the people who for want of a better word hoarded a lot of the smaller items, its just a matter of doing some reserch to find where they all went to and making contact again most if not all have lost interest in this hobby, too old I guess, I am just to stubborn to lie down and take up bowls,
Anyway time marches on and Corawa is just around the next cornerm its a much better view out of the winscreen than the rear view mirror,

Best Regards,

Ron,
