Default I WILL BE THERE / I will return? /Jan & the noticeboard

Hello................ DID Someone mention Corowa???

All going well, I will get to meet many of you in FOR REAL..... TAKE note: SITE 172 Ball park.. Stopping at Holbrook Thursday night as I will be knackered driving to there.. It has a pool... nice.... then on to Alb-Wod. then Corowa on the Friday...

I am adding a picture so you know what to look for.. Beer/coke/chat Is optional.

What does everyone think of a blackboard for contacting others? One at Ball Van park & one at the airport? Jan wants to know... I think its a great idea.

Buying click-click chairs tomorrow.

Ian

Default Notice boards

There are now notice boards at both Ball Park and the Corowa airport, for people to arrange to meet each other.

Robert Pearce was the first to put on a meeting request to catch up with Salesman Bob.

Default Monday Update

Just talking to Jan

There are over 60 military vehicles in town, absolute record at this point whats the estimate for Saturday.

Last night there were more Blitz's than Jeeps but this might have reversed tonight.

The Oze Ampib has arrived and tested the waters!

So far 3 Blitz Ambulances.

Everyone is to go to Ball Park to register and get their goody Bags.

We are waiting for Swiss Chris arrival tomorrow.

There has been some small mechanical issues but overall everything is going far beter than expected.


My plan is to leave at lunch time tomorrow. Can't wait; it's going to be huge.


People are already registering for next year !!

Default Tuesday night

Have just heard from Jan

The Centurion from Tim Vibert has arrived, along with lots of other vehicles.

In local Eltham news Hugh Davis and Steve arrived and collected Chris' F15 and Russ Hughes C15A, both of which I had to drive some distance to a loading ramp at the local antique shop of all places!

In other news John Stokes' modified C15A looks like it's going to make it after a serious rebuild, but Aaron's F60L from South Australia is unlikely to be there despite an enormous effort.

Howard Holgate has found transport for his cab 12 F15 so we're expecting at least one cab 12 and one cab 11.

First test drive yesterday arvo confirmed this with bells on ,but i'm sorry to report to all the Chev die-hards it will have a Ford roof (sorry).So if you know of a good Chev roof i am interested.Keith and Euen have helped me all the way with the rebuild and i am very grateful to both of you.Dash and wiring tomorrow and a few other tidy ups,more road tests and fuel up for Friday AM departure.See you all there.

Sort of balances out Swiss Chris' F15 with a Chev sunshine roof doesn't it...

Good work to do what you've achieved. Do you want me to take the seat cushions to Corowa, or would you like me to leave them out for you at Eltham?
