Very nice to see that a respectable amount showed up.
A few of us stayed at the York caravan park and had sore heads in the morning (long walk in and out of town!) Very enjoyable - here's a couple more pics for you






Here's a couple that I took while under the influence of alcohol....

It was a good run, I think the 1 hour trips are good, not to much strain on the kombi's expecially when the weather's quite hot. Anyway, would like to say that I had a great time camping out (Awsome Night), Sunday at the Museum was good too, Interesting talking to you Brookie, I will PM you in the next few days, on what we discussed.

The only casaulty for me was losing my tail pipe on the way back, flying off and just missing the yellow Bay behind me, close call.

Steve Very Happy
