ThanKs to Rodney and fAMILY FOR ALLOWING US TO MAKE A MESS OF YOUR GREAT SHED. :wink: :wink:

Just listening and watching what was going on was a real treat, I picked up quite a lot of useful information. :shock: :shock:

Thanks for the B.B.Q. lunch, and Dylan your snages were great, :lol: :lol:

The trip down and home a again was great fun, Mick and the red devil was quite hard to keep up with, he really likes to ring the neck of his great little car it just hunmms along and doesn't complain. :twisted: :o

Great mob of blokes and great time was had by all, so once again Rodney thanks for organising the day and thanks for your hospitality. It was great to meet the Geelong mob, you are not as strange as I thought you would be :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol:

What you call sedate was simply great fun, its not worth playing gentle you gotta give it a bit of oomph every now and then, :shock: and yes you were quite sedate, 8) but you really could have gone a bit harder :oops: after all you had a protective force field following you...LOL.... :roll: :roll: :roll:

I seem to remember trying to keep up with someone who was doing 80 in a 70 zone from one side of Geelong to the other side, he wasnt speeding,I obviously wasnt driving fast enough as I could still see him in the distance. :lol:

It was our pleasure Dave (Sue wasn't too keen on your "pets" tho..... :lol: )

It was great meeting another out-of-towner and I'm still in awe of the way Rover managed to squeeze so much into so little space in your engine bay. :shock: I'll never complain about Oscar's engine bay being tight again - tons of room!!

We have to do this again soon. Benefits for me are twofold - firstly I get to enjoy another day with all you mini nuts - secondly it forces me to not clutter up the shed!
