 Had another good mid week lunch run last week, up to the Tarampa Hotel..nice easy cruise up and back..good company...thanks to those who came...
 My next one will be just a week after I get back from US...but Graham Cowan is helping me to organize it...it will be meet at the BP Caboolture on the hwy at 10am, leave at 10:30, head over to Bribie, there is a little display of cars where we will pull up to view just before the bridge, then over to the island for lunch...more details when they get sorted...
 Clash of events as usual...this Sunday is my coffee morning, so as to not interrupt Mothers Day...but also Garter belts etc. at Tamborine, Banyo swap I think..and the David Hack/air show/car show in Toowoomba....and probably other events..........
 Speaking of events......better think about Newcastle next year for the 2015 Nats.....the car is built and tickets on sale...
 This is where you'll find an entry form......www.asrf.org.au  ...but not for another week or so, as the final details are not yet ready to put into print...so it's at the Harness Racing Club grounds, next to the Hunter Stadium, not at the showgrounds....
 I have my accommodation booked, but think quick...if you go on Wotif or Expedia or Hotels etc websites, lots of rooms are filling fast...most places are ranging from $130 to over $200 a night....I looked at Charleton Executive Apartments..Ibis..Mercure..Travelodge West..Novotel..Best Western Travellers Motor Village, Mayfield Motel..Tudor Inn..Gateway Inn..Best Western Blackbutt..Executive Inn..Gateway Inn..Quality Suites..Adamstown Motor Inn..Hamilton Heritage..etc.

 The entance to the nats is in the middle right of this pic, most accommodation is within 4 to 15 km radius, so not bad really...
YAMBA 2014..Now, in case you had your wires crossed like I did...it IS NOT on the weekend of 7/8/9....it is the following 14/15/16...there was a mix up, and suffice to say, those in the park will be ok, as they have to book thru the club...but some people have already booked outside venues for the wrong weekend...so make sure you check this!!
