I'm very jealous guys, I think we need to have a South Coast Manshed day :smile:.
Set a date and a venue....If you plan one for October/November would be good....even if you find you`re by yourself it will still be worthwhile!  :drinks:   

Troyskie !

You don't need a Man Shed day. You need a ride, after all the work you've put in.

October/November is the time for the annual Mapleton Muster.

A little something from last year to wet your  appetite

I gotta agree. The Mapleton Muster has morphed into a must do Claytons rally.

1. Arguably the best little ride in Australia with spectacular scenery and motorcycle genetically modified roads!
2. Award winning coffee shops everywhere!
3. Cheap comfy accom includes an award winning pub, filled with FJ mates!

It`s Timbo`s baby, inaugurated to satisfy his lust for twisties. He comes down all the way from from Gladstone for it!
I reckon we`ll have more than a few interstate guys this year.

We better get that date set before you set the South Coast bi annual manshed day, me thinks.    (popcorn)

I had no idea you guys were so into chooks!

Are the things we have in common....endless?

Okay given I`ll be in the presence of gallinaceous culinary connoisseurs, I am choosing The Bones Manshed to unveil my secret..."Cooked ManChook"!

A hidden fetish of mine for years, I`ve decided to come out of the Galliformes closet and present not one but two cooked chooks from my mate Frank, for your tasting!. Sir Frank (A Sir is Way above any Colonel!), is the God of Cooked Chook that stumbled over this recipe while preparing his coveted Smoked Ham legs for Christmas some years ago near my place......
One of his live chooks had stumbled into the Smokehouse just as Frank was closing the door on the last batch of his fat juicy Sus scrofa domesticus.
(They were required by culinary appreciatos that salivate like mad dogs against his butcher shop doors, waiting for same to open daily).

Yep, one of his favourite chooks subsequently suffered a sintered fiery death that would have been sacrilegious, if wasted.
.....Frank had discovered the ManChook secret recipe!    :yahoo:

Phoned him today and sure enough he has some ham coming out of his bakehouse on Friday and will cook us up a couple directly after, in the same Smokey, burnt Ham oven!.......Yummee!       :drinks:

Gday harvy, i was going to leave a bit earlier but i tell you what, it will be a bit chilly so yeah why not.

i'll wait out the front for you and be ready to go. This way i can follow you, i have a tendency to get lost,

Hey guys, this isn't the thread for it but I'll bring it up on Saturday. I just did a country trip, Kingaroy/Murgon/Ban Ban Springs/Biggenden/ Bundaberg/Gladstone and then back home through Gympie etc. Tell you what, that run from Murgon/Ban Ban Springs to Biggenden is freaking unbelievable. And that was in the car. I would love to do an overnighter following that route, (not all the way to Gladstone) plus something interesting on the way back, not straight down the highway. I think Timbo will be pretty familiar with that run, :)

Anyway, food for thought  :good2:
