What about a drive to Bowral for lunch - either a Saturday or Sunday in July?
One possibility is luch at http://www.highlandsnsw.com.au/grandbar/index.html
Only one snag here - no go without Mforcer, Rforcer and Dforcer. ;D
What about it?
Hopefully our newest member, Crayford, will be able to join us?
Regards,
Minister for Outings

Aha! So who bought it (and is it the Kermit Green one from John Kermit Green)?

Don't know OBH - I just saw his location as the Southern Highlands......
Mind you, it's high time you came south to meet up with us in Sydney....possible?

Brian:

I'd love to meet up with The Sydney Gang sometime (although I must admit to bypassing Sydney whenever I drive to (s)Melbourne to visit my sons - I travel the inland routes where there is relatively little traffic and far fewer speed traps).

Also, running a small (one-man) business makes it difficult to get away, as work demands can be untimely.

You shall, however, eventually meet a scurrilous character from Lismore. There is a Sydney W126 that I might want to check out with a view to purchasing later this year.

The only W116er I've met from the Big Smoke is Styria - when he was passing through my way.

Your newest member would love to join you. But he is a she....

Hopefully Kermit will be up to it by then (he's having some tinkering done). Unfortunately, Rolf Harris is a long way off yet...

As I'm in the Southern Highlands, it would be but a short hop :D for me to bring the green machine.

Keep me posted.

Welcome to the forum - we look forward to photos of yr cars and hopefully to meeting up on an outing soon.
Regards,
Brian

Mercules

Welcome to the forum Crayford... my car says it likes part of your forum name  ;D

Amongst the moving and starting a new job - I shall make all efforts to have my freak of nature tyre shredding monster engineered, registered and insured by the time we all agree on a date!

Regarding the *.forcer issue - they are engaged, so it's obvious they know how to commit to something... What do we need to do in order for them to appear Brian... magic... bribery... blackmail...  ;D ;D ;D

Cheers,
Cameron

Mforcer

You people just never give up... ;D ;D

OK, OK, Rae and I will be there*. Name the date.


*If my car isn't ready by then, I'll still be there! Although I warn everyone else attending to keep an eye on their steering boxes ;)

Yes, Crayford ... Welcome!   ;D

Good to see Kermit find a home at last.

This forum manages to be helpful, informative, somewhat irreverent, very friendly - even social - whilst remaining civil(ised).  Looking forward to your pix and posts.

I'm going to remind everyone to keep their bonnets locked. ;)

I might try and make this one.  7th/8th is good, 14th/15th is good, don is good.

How about the venue - The Grand Bar and The Grand Brasserie - what can I say, sounds gnarley   :D ;D for want of better words.

Does the Minister of Outings have anything else planned whilst in Bowral?  Or is that a separate portfolio?

Well Mercules and Styria are billed to do a burnout comp in Bong Bong St......suitable?
Suggestions?
Open to dates?
Dive in folks and suggest a date before I do (waiting for the Forcer Family to commit - looks like we have a bight from them?)  ;D
Any date for me except the 28th/29th as that is the R-R run.

BC

Mercules

Well Styria, it would appear the gauntlet has been thrown down....

(put on sinister voice of the villan from any Bruce Lee film)
Do you really think your 6.9 litres of 70's terror can match my 4 .0 litres of 90's know-how? Hahaha - we shall see my friend

I think the other attendees should chip in and buy us some new tyres if we are expected to provide the entertainment!

Yeh, anyhow - May I suggest we schedule this outing for the 14th/15th of July... this suits me (and Oscar too) just fine  ;D

Cheers,
Cameron

Brian Crump

14th or 15th July sounds good.
New tyres? sure m8 - Fulda racing slicks? No worries there...
MBCNSW does not have an event that weekend.
Regards,
BC

Mercules

 ;D
We move into our new place on the weekend of 14th/15th July

>:(
Won't be able to make it on this weekend unfortunately

???
Any chance of the 7th/8th of the 21st/22nd?

8)
That would be cool

:-*
Free kisses for everyone

::)

I am happy with 7th, 8th or 22nd. 21st may become available if it is the only possible date. I can do 14th and 15th too but we can't leave out Mercules :)
