OK Question for the more experienced club members..

If we wake up tomorrow and its HISSING down with rain......

Do we still go ? I really can't see the point in doing a run in the pouring rain in a convertible thats all.

Cheers

Wayne

p.s. I've been working on a video bracket so i can film some of the run tomorrow. Hope the weather holds.

It looks fine this morning. Even if it should rain on the 'Coast, it has been avoiding the area where we are going, of late.

A bit of rain won't stop the run. Cyclone, maybe....rain, nope.

Jum Grohn can't make it due to business travel arrangements, so he's asked me to organise the sign-in sheet.

See youse all there.

was a nice relaxing drive to lunch... was a bit of a change to the usual blasts but it was great.
had some great company for lunch at a local pub. (not all of us could fit into the winery so the bunch split up, not that those who went to the pub were bothered by that... our lunch was better anyway

)THANKS FOR THE SUGGESTION KIM(aka suzi)

Some of the better looking cars of the day

JBT and his $13 T-BONE!!!
