It has officially been canceled !!!!!!!
26.5mm of rain and still drizzling,

Bugger!!!!!!

Better luck in two years time at the next festival.

they way I see it chook- in 2 years there should be a thriving pink lake yacht club with a well attended regatta as part of the festival!

Yeh, I know they have been windsurfing on Lake Warden lately, bushkid.

Thanks for your support guys, I just feel a bit numb.

I'm liking the Easter idea a lot Paul.
We cancelled our fire brigade meeting tonight, as there wasn't anything to discuss anymore.
Next thursday at our regular training, I'll put it to them.

On a positive note.
I got a 1800mm long windsock sewn up and completed the pole today.
I will fit it with a flood indicating marker tomorrow.

ssssshhhhhhh. dont mention class 5's to them

Remember, you have to keep a good supple of virgins at the ready, to appease the wind gods. [}:)]

Hey guys

Just out of curiosity What is a Virgin???


Just to keep you up to date on my antics over here in Tas'. Over recent months I have been having a little health problem. Being a recent none smoker I have managed to have a few strange sort of Chest Pains (It is too hard to explain exactly ). Anyway I quietly worried as to what they may be it doesn't pay to try to Self Diagnose as the carry on varied ever few days confusing the issue. Upshot is I went to Launy to my Heart Surgeon and told him what was happening. To cut a Short Story, Long it seems I may need another Stent . Phew! Thank the Laws of Providence/ Kama for that. With what has been happening when loading up the Razor and combined Excitement Stress, I was thinking I may have to sell up my Machines and become a Forced Old Man way before my time. Shoot! Stent that is great, a bit like getting the Plumber in to clear a blocked Drain I'm sure Bryan would appreciate being seen as a Plumber[}:)]. So in a couple of weeks I will be out there again able to breath and not be trying to leave my Little Mink Buttonhole in the paddock.

The winds are starting to pick up and I have to be ready for them.
Ron

Bloody hell Nikrum!!.
Good that you got it sorted out, before you had a fuel blockage.
I had to "google" virgin as well.


I will risk the napping, Test Pilot 1.
I will see how it goes when the lake dries here.
I'm going to haunt you guys come Easter, as Lake Lefroy sounds too good to
miss.
I'll see who else I can drag along.

I must be getting old.
I ran out of spray on contact glue for the foam so a quick trip to "Bumblings" and grabbed a can. (after finding someone old enough to know what I needed and where it was) I got to the trade desk and no notebook, that I carry money and cards in. It was back on the bench in my shed.
I wasn't driving the 5 kms home again to get it , so into the glove box of the car, under the seats and in the seat backs and still come up 25 cents short.
The blokes on the desk just cracked up laughing at my handfulls of small change and the security guy, dobbed in the 25 cents.
Geez, I owe him now eh.

I've got the seat cover cut out ready to sew up.

Go to your local auto store, as I am sure there is a Winn's fuel additive product thats great for clearing blocked fuel lines.
I had a real 'OLD' bomb that it worked a treat on, [}:)]

Ahhh!!! Thats where I've gone wrong Test pilot 1, eh????

Geez, Being an old fart, I'm doomed for life.[}:)]

Using the time to make a shaped foam seat to ease my old bones in the yacht.

i had planned to bring down a mold for your local fibreglasser to make a mold from, I could bring it out at easter if your up

Well "Code Red" has now done 600kms and lovin' every minute of it. We got another 105 kms in today with 3 different pilots.
Forecast looks good to keep the wheel bearings warm all weekend.

Yep!!!! We got 5 hours in yesterday.

These wheels on my buggy go really well on the softer surfaces, Ron.
2 psi in the front and 1 psi in the rear. These are sysmic 8" x 8" rims on the rear and 4" x 8" on the front with "bigfoot" kenda tires, 21" high and 12" wide.
