Farmer's Photos from Merimbula.

[Farmer]

Slow am I, but it's spring, and spring is busy!

What a line up! 33 cars! And so many friends, I believe 92 at the dinner on Saturday night. Only problem is it was all over too soon, particularly as we had to come home on Sunday night, so I feel I may have neglected to get around everyone. But there surely were some great conversations. I am very grateful to all for their friendliness. You have collectively given me a great time.

So, I was so busy that I only took 60 pics!
I've done my usual walk along & snap the front 3 quarters. (A bit uncreative, but it catalogues all the participants' cars.

Here they are:

Oh yeah, I'll be there!
It will be good to see all who I missed this time.
Great having the South Aussies here. They're great fellas. Ant even showed me a pic of Bellett.net (the server) in his office. Amazing that all this cyber-ness fits int a DVD player sized contraption. The creation of this facility has brought me a lot of enjoyment, for which I am very grateful.

But wait, there's more!

Hi Matt,
The gunmetal grey PR91 Rego CH 6256 is Craig Reeds.I know by the 'hammer' dent on the bonnet.
He is a nice bloke.I think his dad Ken bought it new? and handed it down to him.
He,his mum and dad all sat at our table.We all had a good time at the Nats!
Cheers ,Rod.
