I'm only coming if I'm allowed to arrive in style - I'm thinking a Gold 6.9 with brown spots.... Nathan????  8)   (hey, I'll even admit its mine if asked so you dont have to explain)  ;D
sigh....sitting back contemplating the next purchase..!

I sent my money off to the Club 2 weeks ago but haven't heard anything.

Should not present a problem to be there on the 28th at this stage.

Sounds excellent! It looks like I should be able to attend.
Arriving in convoy would be impressive  :)

sounds good tim, bill...chris, what are you trying to imply?  goldie is not worthy? that really hurts me! ;)
no not really...dad is stockpiling bits for it...he made the mistake of ordering and not asking the price for the 4 chrome bits (2 each side) above the headlights on the bonnet and above the blinker....300 + bucks later, he will remember not to do that again!
PB, come on, you know you want to so when that dipshit calls the 6.9 a dog, you can unload the can

I received my magazine from MBCCA - WA yesterday and it appears that the Show and Shine on the 28th October has been cancelled due to lack of sponsorship.

They are having a luncheon at Meads Fish Restaurant instead which doesn't sound like much of a 116 meet.

all right you in law bashing loons, time to get back on track

the merc show and shine is evidently on but has been moved for some reason to south fremantle, The Esplanade carpark Marine Terrace on sunday october 28th...requested time of arrival is 9.30am by the club...

formerly the show was in a more exclusive suburb on the river, not near any public transport and not near any shops, mcdonalds or arcade parlours.  the position its been moved is a very busy area in hoons-ville (excuse my upturned nose, but i see the quality people of the area when i work in ED on weekends, after the locals have had a good nights punch up or stagger and fall onto their face)

personally, i dont understand why they moved it...doesnt seem if it matters that it aint broke - seems the MO of the current president is to change as much as possible.  the club mag highlights it being open to the public...personally i dont care for joe blow walking past my car...its about enthusiasts and talking to fellow enthusiasts...i liked being able to leave my car unlocked or have the windows down so other people can have a peep if they want...i dont want some monaro driving dickhead dripping his coke in there or playing with my becker mexico!

I am working the Sunday Morning Surgery in Kalamunda next Sunday but could come down at lunch-time.

ETA about 1300hrs all going well if that is any use.

That pretty much sums it up, Nathan.
I thought the location was extremely good, at Peppermint Grove.
I would have thought access would be somewhat difficult down there at Fremantle  :o
