Social Scene – December 2009
Due to the extreme heat forecast for the Day of Triumph the event was cancelled. It has been rescheduled for Sunday 16th May 2010 at the same venue when hopefully the weather will be more favourable.
The WA National Rally has been and gone and a good time was had by all who attended The trip across the Nullarbor was fun and the weather not too hot. The detour down to the Head of the Bight where there were still a few whales with calves was well worth the extra few kilometres. Six of us stayed with Frankie and Lloyd Merritt at Boyanup on their dairy farm, along with John and Angela and Wayne and Carolyn. Frankie and Lloyd send their regards to all.
The week at the Abbey Resort in Busselton was very enoyable, well planned with various activities. Congratulations to Peter Davidge and Roger Lange who both won their class in the Show and Shine day, Peter getting a perfect score. Roger and Cherri also tied first on the Navigation Run. The Margaret River and south west area of WA is certainly worth a visit with some lovely country and scenery. All up we travelled a distance of 4419kms and the TR6 didn’t miss a beat!!
Next year’s Nationals will be in Kangaroo Valley NSW (south of Sydney) and runs from 11th to 18th September. Sounds like it will be a good week. Check out the web site.
Congratulations to John & Angela Williams who were married in the parklands on Friday 27th November.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
