We've got a very small ham, mince for burgers, makings for salad, a dozen fruit mince pies, a couple of Christmas puddings, butterscotch custard, ice cream, spiced ginger beer, Lemon lime and bitters, Apple and passion fruit juice, breakfast juice, soda water on tap, tea, coffee, hot chocolate.

I think we've got it covered.

See you all tomorrow.

Well, we really enjoyed ourselves, and were very pleased to see everyone.

We hope everyone else had a great time, as that was our goal.

Merry Christmas.

Goal achieved!!
Many thanks to Gary and Shonee for generously hosting the gathering.  We were spoiled with three courses- nibbles, BBQ rolls and multiple desserts!     :clap

Oh no!!  I could have told you a road that avoided IKEA.    :eek

I hope neither of you bought anything!

Or are you still in there trying to find your way out?

Nice looking Herald, but it looks like you got quite a bit ahead of you to get it restored.

   



A mate's sister had one of them back in the late 60's, he "borrowed" it one night, we smuggled two
in the boot into to the Drive-In movie theatre.

   

You wanna replace that power plant an ST100 donk? 

Mmmm .... FR tyre would be high on my priority list.

Hi Michael  the eternal question when you have an old car like mine is restore or keep the patina I am doing the latter at present and digging driving it

The boot is pretty big but it would get very stuffy very quickly I think!

Well you see its like this when I first got the car the toe in was WAY out (by about 1/2 an inch) and I have since fixed that but I wanted to make sure it was right before  putting another pair of tyres on the front now I am happy that I have it right New tyres are very much on the to do list,
