Thanks for posting the pictures.

Unfortunately or fortunately for us, we were not able to go this year as I had another commitment.  I am pleased to see so many more people restoring L/R's and to a high standard.

Ian.

Many and various pieces of tin with wheels.

I received copies of the Corowa Free Press the week after our event and Geoff Campbell's Ferret is on the front page and there are another 4 photos and a story on page 3. Jason, the journalist was thrilled at having a ride in a GPA.

Thats a good result for the event. I for one was a very happy camper as they say. I met so many people, Richard F. for example (I think I remember him at museum auction in Newcastle about 1997 or it could have been the Luskintyre auction with the Canberra bomber).

I will send you a PM on other matters.

Hi Ross,
You have a good memory, I was at the Newcastle auction with Warwick Lord. Good to meet you at Corowa, I had no idea we had met before!

Hi Geoff
The picture was probably taken in the main street. Are you going to the Camden Military Tattoo on Friday? I will give you a copy of the paper.

The promotion we received was excellent this year. Here are a few links to what was seen while we were in Corowa

Well, not so good, I just remembered your face, so there you are, you're unforgettable. At the caravan park office I remembered another face but couldn't remember his name -- until he spoke to the lady behind the counter, then I remembered his name, first and last, and I was right. It turned out I last saw him at the 50th Anniversary in Cooma: http://www.remlr.com/remlrmeetingone.html and that was April 98.
