The Site Office to be precise. We are asking for volunteers to look after the Site Office at Ball Park during the opening hours through the week, then Saturday the Site Office relocates to the showground. Tasks are basically booking in participants, selling items, taking membership renewals and entries for next year, etc.

There are still a few gaps in the roster to fill during the week and on Saturday especially.

cheers, Richard

At this stage I'll be there for a few days.

I had a friend have a look at the 101. He's given it a clean bill of health.
"I'd take it up there without hesitation." were his words.
Just got to modify the tow hitch to connect chains for the trailer, change the radiator cap and grease the prop shafts.

By the way, made a flag today.

Well... my daughter drove the machine; I just picked apart the pieces and re-arranged an MOD flag because I'm not at all handy with a sewing machine. Needed a $5 dowel from a hardware store.

There were a large number of Land Rovers pre-entered so there is a chance this year of having the largest number of Land Rovers at Corowa.

Pedr (REMLR 038) had his No 5 in the river and paddled about. Comments - 'Needed a fish finder', 'EPIRB?' , 'perhaps a fishing licence' etc. Easily had the most fun of any entrant for yesterdays activites.

THEN, after sunset, the WW2 searchlight lit up the sky. Incredible! A real time warp. Just needed tracer and air raid sirens... and its gonna be on again every night! I do not have a tripod so getting a good quality photo may be difficult.
