Hi Everyone
Rain has stopped and the forecast is for fine an warming weather; Summernats time in Canberra.
As is customary, a few of us will be heading to Braddon on the Friday night to park the cars, sit and watch the weird and wonderful world of cars pass by. Anyone is welcome to join us or at least drop by and say gidday. There is always room for another car!
Cheers
Jacko

we will bring along a fold-up table for all to use (mostly for snacks if you want to bring them- BBQ shapes preferred- just sayin')

The bogan circus rolls in to town!
One of these days I'll have to go down and have a look just so I can say I have been.

I still have a 1986 unopened bottle of Sparkling wine with the summernats sticker on it that I was given when I entered the event that year. It might just be ready to drink...............not.

Been over 25 years since I was there & no hurry to go back .......

Might be time to give it a try boof as it would have "matured" nicely ........

Yes 30 years is the optimum time for a spumanti. I am happy to share it with someone as such as yourself that could really appreciate it.

A good evening. Five mustangs, a series 1 e-type and a long red thing came along. Great weather, some nice cars burbling by and yes, a few bogans. Overall everyone was well behaved and for the first time in a while the police did not shut it down; well not before 11 when we left.
