Luke & I spent nearly $1000 getting this day off the ground, and the flags were the largest cost, so understandably we don't want to be out of pocket that much! If you haven't contributed already, then please PM me and I'll send you my bank details. Remember we can use these flags again at future events so jump on board and help out

I'll update the list as I get the remaining payments.

Where's everyone's photos ???

WHAT!? I missed an event? That's ok.. my GTI is getting Piston Rings replaced so I have a loan car... yawn

[MattyT]

I didnt take any! But I had a chat with Jordan and he wants to come out on the next cruise to do drive-bys, chase shots etc

[MJKooLio]

What is this Jordan's last name?

[geoff_gti]

I know very well that you know who it is.

And what the Hell did you do to your brand new GTI to need new Piston Rings?


This thread needs more pics!

Got another couple of payments, thanks guys.

Er , piston rings weren't aligned properly. Too much rattling in the car from it. Had to take it in. Low compression in one of the cylinders.

Araluen for everyone
ARALUEN Botanic Park in Roleystone is a hive of activity as families, community clubs and school groups gather there for pre-winter events.
Perth members of VWWatercooled, a Volkswagen-appreciation group, joined other local car groups on May 27 to hold their first Autumn at Araluen Cruise and Show and Shine, with a wide range of local cars on display . Meanwhile, in the second of four planting days, volunteers prepared the spring tulip display, which will feature double the usual number of tulips (about 100,000) this year.
Roleystone Community College students and other school groups continued planting work last week and there will be two more public planting days on June 9 and 10. To volunteer, call 9496 1171.

damn those photos have gone public???? makes VWWC look like a bunch of convicts

[geoff_gti]

lol Coconut Photography is public anyway. I'm hoping he comes up with a few more still, puts my own photos to shame ...

The newspaper article only printed the pic of Mattyt, but I was clever and found the others via their online prints website

I'll scan a copy when I get my hands on the original.

[geoff_gti]

Finally loaded up my pics from the day. Most of mine taken after we finished and were packing up then Luke MattyT & I went for a drive on the way home. PM if you want full size originals of any.

Finally loaded up my pics from the day.

Many thanks! I wish I'd hung around that little bit longer now to get some of those sexy shots under the pergola.

[geoff_gti]

the light was fading quickly though, I should go through and fix some of them up really.
