Greg Mac.

I have checked AFM and the Minto auction "deliveries to buyers" does start the following day, Monday 22nd.
It'd be a good way to finish up a Landy weekend. I could then get my No5 trailer from Newie down to Canberra.
If..

I think the auction prices are headed up towards the feb 2013 levels. Weird. $10-$12 for a GS?

I hope the weather is great for the Expo.
Looks like I'm camping there Saturday night. Haven't had a confirmation as yet.
I am taking a cam net or two. And a REMLR flag, and maybe the REMLR grass sign if I finish it.
Title: Re: Land rover clubs expo - REMLR Banner
Post by: Diana Alan on September 16, 2014, 12:14:51 PM
I am unable to attend the Land Rover Clubs Expo at Castle Hill Sydney on Sunday, but I also have the REMLR Banner.

Could someone in Sydney's Eastern, Southern or Inner Western Suburbs take the banner to the Expo where Isuzutoo will look after it and take custody after the event?

Send me a PM.

 :) great weekend. V good weather throughout. The Expo had a top turnout, good exhibitors, good displays, good numbers of people.

In the REMLR area, we had the banner, the flags, the hand-out cards, the swing sign and tac stickers as well. And we have really nice members too. [tips me lid]

Freelander didnt go up the ramp much.. and yet that was twice what the Evoque managed. Evoque then tried pushing the obstacles out of its way using its bumper as a battering ram.. Had a good time and even managed to not get sunburnt :D

Pity the informal "REMLR section" hadn't arrived a bit earlier, or myself and another bloke would have parked our 110s in the line up too!
Was great to meet a bunch of you! Had a good chat with Dervish and Boxy in particular!

Next year we should request that REMLR has a designated area. 

Am hoping to forge closer relationship between REMLR, NSW members and the LROC Sydney over the coming 12 months.  Its a logical union for REMLR members who want the benefits of club membership and NSW HCRS.

The LR Clubs Expo should be a part of that.  Just have to make sure that the Expo and The Camden Park Historic House Open Day don't clash next year so I can attend both.  At least I got to see a couple of piccies when Carzee and Minikeg came to camp with us on Saturday and Sunday nights.

The idea of a signposted REMLR area is very nice. Excellent.

And... perhaps one day of next years AAVA's annual 2 day event at Camden can be publicised more and we could get a designated soft-skin area to display (with cam nets etc) opposite the AAVA line up. It would surely boost $ income from rides by REMLR members on the Saturday perhaps? Another logical union I think.

I have thrown up a quickie web album of the AAVA event that we enjoyed last weekend. I added some videos to REMLR-TV.

Going to the LROC Expo on top of the AAVA event and going to Minto on Monday for the FFR made it an unforgetable weekend. It was like an R&R from ten years ago.

Hands up any other members who would pay for rides in armoured military heritage as seen in the videos?

Thanks Diana, thanks Mr Booger.
