Voyager and I will be there. Now, just remember its not Mooloolaba Yacht Club, but "The Yacht Club", which is a different establishment further along the road.
I was sitting having a beer at the wrong place last year wondering where everyone was, lol.  :drinks:

Yarr, that be her matey. All the locals call it the Mooloolaba Yacht club but somebody didn`t register her name, so a pub down tha road grabbed her for it`s restaurant name a little way back.

Just hold your course pass tha pub and you`ll sight her berthed on tha starboard bow. It`s a dead end pass so ya can always come about in the docks and come too via tha Port side. A better snag then tha Fairfields boathouse and no Bombay runners!

Good ta see ya toe the line, otherwise you`d be kissing the gunners daughter.... Bring ya budgie smugglers too!  :drinks:

That`s great news stu. (no worries Tony, Ken & Harvy).

Weather looks really, really good too! A few lurkers to total 16 so far, (incl 6 ladies), plus at least 6 maybe`s. (incl another 4 ladies)

Arnie, Slippery Steve, horse (& Jen), Doug (& Dena), Xray, Glenn, Darren (& chris), Mick (& Paula), Stu (& Sue), Rich (& Julie)

How come Arnie attracts so many chicks? ...No scars & not exactly loose with his cash....Will check out his moves, but I reckon it`s tha accent & hairdo!    :pardon:

Was good to catch up yesterday and meet some new and not so new faces  :pardon:
CanDman was there in spirit. So much so I swear I could here his voice...
There was even  mention of a ManShed Day coming up soon... (popcorn)

As always great to catch up with the FJ crew.

You were conspicuous by your absence Richard.  :empathy:  

Was a great few hours, loved it. Will post up a couple of happy pics tonight. Yeah you are right Darran, it WAS as if Kevy was there with us, I heard him too! The only thing missing was all the empty shot glasses on the table,   :drinks:

PS, I still reckon we need a Manshed Day/night stay over at the sprawling Taylor Ranch, how good would that be!!  :drinks: :drinks: :drinks:

I want to thank all who came out to the yahct club, both all those I knew and all those I met for the first time.  Shame rover wasn't there as well as those others who were sick. Special mention must be made to the mythical man called klavdy. I really wonder if he's just a construct of smoke and mirrors for the really gullible.
:-)  Great seeing youse all.

Would this be the same Arnie that gets cranky when people who can't spell don't use spell check, or is that a different Arnie?   :biggrin:

Enjoy QL you lucky bastard, it's freezing down here. I passed within 10km's of your house on the weekend, 2.2 degs at Morrisons (below).

Just in case you're home sick:

For you coastal dwelling banana benders, that's frost, in case you've never seen it outside a fridge before.

Arnie, can we expect you back before Spring has sprung?
