Manshed day offer at my place at Tingalpa

Hey everybody, it's been a while but I finally got some time spare. I was thinking my place would be awesome to host a manshed day. Tingalpa is sort of Central to a lot of people and my joint is just 500m from the gateway.  Plenty of room for everyone and if people wanted to stay the night before, I have a bar complete with pool table and room with six beds for anyone to stay the night in case you want your shims done like me, as in why I really would like to host the next one boys. I will probably want to get advice on where I should get shims from. Perhaps if anyone who has a kit could tell me which ones they are low on and I'd buy a heap to top up your kit.
So if anyone wants to pick a date I'm open to what comes up.
Hope to hear from you all soon
Cheers from Steve ( Bender )

Sounds like a good idea to me. Always happy to meet up with follow fjers.  I am open to any suggestions for the date, but would most likely have to take you up on your offer of accommodation.

I would say just call a date and the true believers will come.

Dates to watch would be the Muster and Troyskies Shed day.

Cheers.

Fantastic Steve, ..... Ummmmmm, we`ve got a Southern weekend in Nowra at the start of Summer (Nov 27th ) and the sensational Mapleton Muster at the End of October....so somewhere around end of September would be good me thinks (we got a gold coast night on the 19th)....I`m thinkin who is on Shift work that could priortise the exact date? (Harvey, Trent, Horse, Baldy for examples)....if no such notifications come in via PM or post over the next week or so,.....unless you`re in a hurry,...... maybe somewhere around the end of September makes sense for now imho..... (popcorn)

Either way I`ll be there......even if it`s only ta collect snooker bets & feed my face!   :drinks:

Cool guys, end of September sometime is cool. By then I will have that other FJ1100 that I have purchased after some cool person(horrible with names) put me onto at the last manshed. It was the one on gumtree in Woolgoolga. I've been down for a look. I just got to pick it up. So that will be something new to look at.
I'm in no real hurry.  End of sept. is something we can start with and go from there .
No probs at all with anyone wanting to stay the night.
I will check in soon and we'll see if we can get a big more input for the date. Cheers guys

I'll hopefully join the mix with the Randy bike - if not, I might just bring by fuel cap for the deflapper micro surgery...
Some silly bugger went & broke a bone in right hand...Back @ the Quack Wed prior...

Hi everyone, yes the day is booked in for this Friday night the 25th and I have enough beds for six people . We can drink to our hearts content and then Saturday the 26th we can do whatever to whoevers bikes. So I know that on Friday night there is going to be a BBQ. Burgers that are huge with everything will have to be $5 guys.
On the Saturday morning if your there from night befits or come early enough on the day, my shout for bacon and eggs and toast and fresh OJ.
So you are welcome to come anytime you like, first in best dressed with the bedding arrangements .
Address is 1497 Wynnum Road, Tingalpa.
Booze has already been covered as I have a bar in my backyard that is open to friends and family. It has a pool table and a bar. Beer , mixed spirits, spirits by the shot glass, soft drinks that are all for sale at the bar. Just to cover the costs.
Anyways, I have most tools that are required for working on the FJ's. I don't have the tool used to take the caps off the top of the fork staunchions. I do have a decent torque wrench and a copy of the clymers manual on PC that we can print out if needed.
Call me on 0450977474 for any questions okay
Cheers and hope to see you all soon

Hey Darran, sorry for being so late with the reply. The date is the 26th but you are quite welcome to stay the night before mate.
Oh and I forgot to mention I think that there will be a few muso's playing away in the backyard too. If you get here early enough I'm shouting breaky with bacon and eggs, toast and fresh OJ. Lunch will be BBQ something or other.
Hopefully I c u soon mate, talk soon , Steve/Bender   :bye:
