Thanks to Brett and Lola for the great day. Thanks to all that attended, the collegial atmosphere made the day very enjoyable

NC, the saw vice is safely in my car.

Ann, the Baklava was very impressive, yes Christos, the Baklava was there and I only managed to snavell 1 small slice.

It sounds like everyone had a great - well done Brett. I would have loved to come but I was out of town.The next chance to catch up will probably be the forum stand at the wood show this year?

[Skew ChiDAMN!!]

Aye, 'twas a good day. Many thanks to Brett & Lola for their efforts in bringing together such a motley crew.

The Gal and I left with all the important stuff, although we did leave behind a couple of dishes, our milk bottle and... ... what was it? Oh, yeah. The freezer.

And my liogier rasps, but we won't quibble about who owns what. Not until after we pick up our other sundries. (Possession is 9/10ths of the law, right? )

...then I came across Grumpy John, now that was a surprised. Not so Grumpy in my opinion.

Now, now. We all know that couldn't have been Grumpy... after all, he had to take a sicky from work 'cos of his bad back and couldn't possibly have made the trip all the way up from Vic!

Must've been a ring-in... like Pat's looking like DJ in 'bad light.'

Yep I certainly had a great day, apart from dropping an braking my camera . Thanks to all.

Perfect weather as the rain/hail help off until we were jut about to leave . Dam stuff followed me all the way to Kiama where I am now.

Cheers

Good to see some pics, proves that something did in fact happen

How about matching some names to faces?

[FenceFurniture]

Some really good pics there Fletty. I most often think that the best group shots are the ones taken from the sidelines, while the Gentlemen Rabblers are concentrating on t'other camera.

Ross - what were you doing in Pic 7? Did you not hear me say "cat scats only in that garden please"?

Cheers, crowie

Looks like all had a great day.

Morning here spent sanding and then due to inclement weather indoors.

It being Chinese New Year inspired LOML to spend the day preping a banquet of 8 different dishes for dinner sort of thought some of those who may pass south would have called in.

Oh and yes there is photos to prove it.

Thanks Brett & Lola for a great day in a beautiful part of the world.

What a great looking bunch of Woodies, wish I could have been there. Glad y'all had a great day.
I'm sure there will be all sorts of new projects being started after an inspirational day.

[FenceFurniture]

Tell you what - we got the weather right by the skin of our teeth. Today is miserable - foggy & wet, and cool of course. Even when it's not raining the trees still splat onto the head.

[wheelinround]

Thaks for the warning Bret means another short day in the shed.

[Metalman]

Thanks to everyone for a very pleasant day with a special thanks to Brett and Lola for all of their hard work to organise such an event.
It was interesting to find that other like minded people live close by. Phillip (metalman)

Thanks so much to Brett and Lola for a fantastic day.

I nearly took a photo of the workshop but would have been too scared to show it to Margaret -IMMACULATE. Neither PacMan nor I could find any sawdust, even in the cracks in the floorboard. A credit to you Brett, assuming you actually work in it!

A great day all round and several familiar faces from the day before at my place - NOW you all know why there were no early photos following 's surprise visit, along with a hitchhiker he picked up along the way - shame about the back.

It was great to put a few more faces to the names. A totally eclectic mix with a passionate and common interest - tea, coffee and ######## - and I nearly forgot the woodworking etc.

I would also like to thank for his speech and kind words. A fantastic weekend, although I didn't get back to Clarro' until about 9:15 last night, feeling just a little weary. Did get to touch NCArcher's workbench 'though - a great job. Thanks for the trip Tony.

Cheers,
Paul
