Thanks for an excellent day, was great to catch up with people in person that id only chatted to on here before. Cheers to those who organised the cruise, before, during and after. Had a great day, looking for to the next one, hopefully in the Skyline. Was great to give the Laurel a bit of a workout. Cheers, Steve

I would like to thank everyone who made the effort to show up on the day. I'd also like to thank Tracey for buying all the provisions for the BBQ, and for prepping the onions, and buttering the bread. And to Warrick for cooking all the food. And to Pip for supplying the bread. And to Hayden, Brendan, and Simon for transporting the BBQ, the gas cylinder, and the food.
Despite a few navagational hiccups, ( :lol: ) and a couple of mechanical glitches it was a bloody fantastic day out.
They don't call me the man with the rubber arm for nothing you know.............

Fuel consumption for week and a halfs worth of driving - in one day with twice as much fuel :lol: , Did 290km total, by end of saturday night with Leppa had done 389km

Some nice pics indeed! Cant wait for more..
