Ah again sweet sweat brings new meaning to woodwork.

Here's another pic of Oct 12 2012

Long Range prediction

Whats on in and around Katoomba during Oct Nov

Last but not least its Bathurst 1000 weekend

So well in advance I am out due to above I watch the start and finish these days and I more than once have had to put up with that weekends traffic in the Mountains.

[FenceFurniture]

It definitely won't be on the Bathurst weekend (because of the traffic, not because I want to watch it). Isn't the Bathurst race split up into a couple of different ones now on two different weekends (you can tell how much interest I have)?

Yeah, that's Lurline St over on the south side. Didn't happen here....

[Mutawintji]

Merde ... Bathurst ... That will mean traffic back to Brisbane ??? Do you think ?? But we could come back monday easy.


The snow looks pretty severe, need chains ?

Mate!!! You follow it as keenly as me.

I lost interest in Bathurst the day the cars all became the same vehicle. I think that was last century .

I think Brock won in a green Torana in 76. That is the only finish I ever remember. I was at my cousins and they and their dad were into it.

In those days it was easy to tell them apart

October:
School hols finish 6th (actually the 7th - Labour Day) No good
Bathurst weekend 13th No good

Can't find any info on Open Days at Trend, H&F etc, but inlikely to be on a Sunday.

So that leaves Oct 20th or 27th, and say Nov 3rd or 10th. Unless there is another Bathurst event....? Can't find anything on the Net.

I'm thinking Sunday 27th October. Perhaps some posts from others if this is not suitable. I'll be opening up a new thread (soon) so don't worry about posting in here if that date is ok (thread gets cluttered).

Dear Peoples of the Blue Mountains Gathering.


FenceFurniture, Bushmiller, Crowie, Wheelinround and ALL others who attended the Blue Mountains Gathering.


Thank you for your kindness. I can't believe you spent a small fortune on tools, ESPECIALLY the file which I had actually wanted to buy but considered too expensive ... and now I have it ... Ta so much. my Parking fine was only $40 ..... ??


Your letter was unexpected, I really thought Crowie was coming to Brisbane ... HaaHaa

From Brett:

G'day Greg ...

Uhhh, yeah Crowie was full of #### when he asked for your address.

We auctioned off your timber at the BBQ and these are the proceeds of it.

We'll not have one of our boys with a bad taste in his mouth via a parking ticket. Particularly one who has made an excellent contribution to the forum and lives the spirit of it.

...

The riffler #6 is a hand stitched jobbie from Liogier, France. The stitching grain is #4, second finest, and it has been sapphire coated. This coating is 3800 Vickers hardness (Tungsten Carbide is 2283) so it should stay sharp for a long, long time. Furthermore, it will not rust

ENJOY !

regards Brett (FF) 13-may-13

Brett and all thank you very very much ... especially as it was so unexpected. In July Paul (Bushmiller and Wife) is coming to dinner and I will see what other odd looking timber I can see about the place and pass to him ... Also I expect to be at the Oct-13 Blue Mountains meet.



cool bananas ... Greg

G'Day Greg,

Sorry for the deception, though the story in my email to you was true, though my sister stayed with mum long enough for her to recuperate enough to be mobile & safe after her knee replacement, otherwise I would have been up home.

I'll see you up there on day.

Cheers, crowie
