Thread: Off for the Weekend!

  1. #1

    Smile Off for the Weekend!

    Morning All!
    Will be away from the front for a few days as a whole mob of us from the Moruya Antique Tractor & Machinery Assn are going to the big Cootamundra Rally, West of the Divide.

    Fly safe & have fun.

    Have a great weekend Barry; be careful not to revert to type, and try and strafe down an opposing tractor

    Stick wings and a Lewis on your tractor, and call it an SE5a!

    Have a great time!

    Unhappy

    Well the weather just did not co-operate. Rained all the way to Coota due to a big rain band coming through from West Australia.
    Got the caravan unhitched & awning secure before we got too wet (Thank the Lord for Driz-a-Bone coats!) Rained most of Friday night but Saturday was very overcast but only a few light showers which did not stop the Engines & Tractors doing their thing.
    Then the rain started again about 5 pm Saturday & all through the night.
    Most folks had had enough so we packed up in light drizzle this morning & headed back to the Coast & it rained virtually all the way & was raining at Moruya when we got home. Cootamundra is about 330 Klms from Moruya up the Clyde Mountain & over to the South West Slopes.
    Forcast is for Showers down here all through to next weekend!

    Sorry Andy! No Photos. Didn't take the camera due to the drear forecast on Dept. Meteorology site early Friday.

    That is really tough Baz.
    I know from our SK. living history camps just how miserable rain like that can be and how much you return home deflated, after getting your hopes up for one of those great weekends of doing your thing, and socializing with friends.
    Only one thing for it. Wet outside, get wet inside. To the bar my man.

    Thanks Rob! The evenings were made most enjoyable with good company, good food, some Mexican Beer (Sol--cheaper than Corona & just as good) plus a bottle of good Port!

    Did I hear Port?
    Sorry you got rained off Baz, but sounds you had good company which always lifts things up a bit.

    I grew up in L.A.; I know what it is. I spent most the weekend explaining it to the natives.

    I save more virgins* that way....
