What a fantastic weekend. Great cars, great weather and great company.

Micheal was a very generous host, was great to sit round the fire in that cool old shed and just relax and talk Vw shit all night.

Old Robbie with his amazing collection of mostly original VWs, and plenty of good yarns (he loves those new webbers).

The Bendigo Volksclub members, who welcome us every year, and they look forward to us coming up as we do. Trully genuine good people.

The show was a great day, bit of a change for our two pommy members who attended. Thought the raffle winners name was a pisser- F. Mc Rutch. :lol:
Im spewing we didnt enter EMPIKG in the raffle, as the prize was a great new trailer.

The cruise up and back was great, and Im sure the car turned a few heads both cruising and at the show. The swampies are a real puzzle to most people, and so is the huge camber situation :D

I will pot some pics a bit later once I get my camera working again.

Many thanks to Rhett for putting on another great picnic weekend your efforts did not go un-noticed. Thanks again for the awesome gear nob. :twisted:

Hopefully next year we can get more cars and people along to this gret event.

I say old chaps, thanks for a rather wonderful day. Bit of a shock seeing all those tractor engines just... well.... running and not doing much. All education I suppose. Just how do they choose the winner by the way? :?

Best bit for me? Giving the old boys a mexican wave when they did the tractor lap of honour drive by at about 5kph.. quality.

Me and Fonzy got back fine. Bl**dy knackered... but fine.

Thanks all.
