We got back to my place about 5pm, just in time to see the channel 9 news about the floods and the cattle on the road (Guy why didn't wave hello from your car while you were waiting

)

What a great day! Sure we had a bit of heavy rain on the way down, but slowing down was fine and it soon passed.

What a wonderful day! I enjoyed the day immensely. Great food, great friends and great fun!

Yes, the photos are here, bear with me while I fight with my recalcitrant computer...

Success! Yay!

Neil and others turn pens out of so many different things, I wondered if this might one day turn up in a pen of someone's.....
The view from Guy's workshop
funky chicken, Prime Mover, weisyboy, munruben, Sandra and a bit of Mal
Sandra, Munruben, Mal and Star
Neil and his mobile setup - Neat!!!
Carl doing a great job getting the BBQ going.
As usual, the guys like to congregate around the BBQ
"How many did you say were coming?!" Zarguld said.
The only time it was quiet in the house
How cool is this! Guy and Lisa were able to fit us all around the tables at once!
Sorry, the next few are tad blurred Star and Anna with the most delectable pecan tart - YUM!
Munruben and Liz
15 cars in the street and Shontara - we were trying out my new camera

I'd better tread carefully here

I'll let Wendy answer that

To quote Enfield Guy verbatim about the Plum & Hazelnut cake: "Too good for Victorians".

Did I say that??!!!!! Too good to share, that is for sure!!!!!

Cheers

I must add my thanks to Guy and Lisa for hosting the GTG, and second the comment about the whole event being so great.

Can see a much greater emphasis on food in this Qld get together than ours in Mexico.

The only guy doing any work is a turner - onya Neil!

Yeah! We NEVER talk about food at ours. Let alone eat it.

(But we manage lots of turning too.
