Really enjoy this GTG. One of the few times each year I get to relax, drink, chat, sit and listen to music.
Can't wait.

If it's what I'm thinking it is, forget the "Maple Kind", Andrew. Aussie bacon is the best in da woild!
If you doubt it, ask Bill Bryson (see his - "Down Under"). He'll straighten you out.
If I come - a remote possibility - I'll bring a lettuce leaf and some "rocket". Will that do?

Hope you guys have a great time - I really enjoyed meeting Terry and hearing the franks when I went through some years back on our cravan holiday - Bathurst should be a hoot - look forward to the pictures, stories and what music gets played
The problems of the world cannot possibly be solved by skeptics or cynics whose horizons are limited by the obvious realities. We need men who can dream of things that never were and ask "why not?".

'Wonders" would be the word.....
If the US govt can force Coca Cola off the market until they removed cocaine from their product,
then govts can do the same to cigarette companies who add nicotine to their product.
Raising revenue is not an excuse for allowing manufacturers to use addiction to sell product.
Imagine the public outrage if supermarkets put addictive chemicals in meat or vegetables.

Yep, even though Tander and the other guy won, a Lowndes/Skaife win would have been the perfect finish for the best drive, by far, of the race. I blame Murphy for delaying the catch by a couple of laps.
