Thanks to everyone who showed up for the shin-dig at my place today (yesterday actually!).

It was great for all of us to meet (and re-meet) each other since the muster.

Thanks to Simon for coming all the way up from Melbourne :shock: , and Nick for coming all the way from Toowoomba!

Also thanks to Cam for holding 'Alloy TIG welding 101' for us all - great stuff.

I for one had a great day, and look forward to doing it again soon.

Cheers,
Tricky

Matt - very much looking forward to developing a winning hill-climb busa-powered beast for sure!

Dan - we were still boozing on until 7pm!

Thanks for a great day Tricky! Was good seeing you again and meeting some new (and some not so new) like minded people :wink:

It was worth the 2+hr drive to get there and the 2+hr drive home!

Yeah, done a little bit but not much.

With other peoples cars and Easter, Its been a bit of downtime for The Cat.

I will be freed up in a couple of weeks so will be able to give the poor old thing some attention. I have a heap of aluminium work to do so I will have to address that now I have my own TIG (Listening Cameron?? :D ).

Might up date tonight with a few new pics.

Cheers,
Tricky
