    angel   On behalf of the Committee I advise that :-

The FORUM will have full access, to all those currently registered on the Forum, during this weekend, in celebration of the 8th NATIONAL MEET in Bathurst 2013 and to stimulate interest in raising awareness, support and in possibly becoming a member of the Club. Whistle

This will commence Friday evening and terminate Monday morning. police

Banner, no problem KJ. Smiley

Had Rich, my fellow Mighty Morphin' Eureka Ranger Afro around today lending a hand sorting out several bugs, turned the timing light on the rotary which is now running a bit sweeter and a few other bits and pieces then after he went home nearly had another heart stopper. Shocked

A friend of Rhondas rang to say she was stuck in Melbourne and wouldn't be able to pick up her son from primary school before they close at 6:00pm so could we pick him up and mind him until she clears her way to getting back home a few hours later.  The young fella has been at me to take him for a spin every time he comes around so I thought I'd go pick him up in Dweeby and I'd get to take it for a test run at the same time.  His school is in Longwarry about 6 km from home along the back road and all was going well until the fire went out with about 1km left to go and 2 minutes to spare Angry

So I had to run/jog/Cliffy Shuffle/stagger/crawl/gasp Tongue the last km but it all turned out for the best even though the young bloke didn't get to go for a spin because the tilt tray driver let him play with the tilt tray remote controls while Dweeby was up there on it so he was rapt Grin

At least it's only a broken wire on the fuel pump I've got to fix tomorrow (as well as my jelly legs Embarrassed )

Hello Cyco
No plans made. I was going to go the same way we ended up going last year to get around the
SNOW :-) But this year it maybe the fire that stop us.
We are leaving my place I hope around 10:30, 11:00 am ish if you want to tagg along.
But all will depend on the fires I suppose.
Cheers.... Darren

Hi Darren,

Yeah, the fires up the top of the Central Coast today have been quite fierce. I understand some buildings have been lost up Katherine Hill Bay. Heard some fires had been sighted with fires 200 foot tall!! Out fireries certainly have had their work cut our for them.

I'll tag along. Where do you want to meet up?

As a heads up from those traveling to Bathurst from the south, there are bushfires near Tumut and Book Book, and 4 around Griffth. All are marked as being under control. It seems to leave a clear run between the two lots of fires (that's still some 300 klicks), along either the Newell Hwy (through Narrandera) or Olympic Hwy (through Wagga Wagga). The sheer bulk of the fires are along the coast line. Lithgow (the route I'd say Darren and myself would most likely have taken), lost upwards of 40 houses there. So we're most likely going to have to head on a long detour north to head south west to Bathurst, adding 2 hours onto our trip.

Hopefully most of you have already headed north and are past these fires.

Travel safe people.

Thanks to all the hard workers for another great meet! i enjoyed the drives (but not the roadside stops Sad)i'm very sorry that we didn't make it to Orange i would have enjoyed the gardens. it was also very nice to have some free time when i could curl up with a book and relax. i look forward to seeing everyone in Balina!
