   G'day, Alf and I have decided to hold a Manshed day(s) at Bermagui. The date is up for discussion at this stage but it will be either the last weekend in November or the first weekend in December. We'd like to get some feedback on the most suitable weekend. Alf has beds for 3 or 4 attendees and I can accommodate 2 or 3. First in gets the beds. There is plenty of camping space available in either mine or Alf's back yard. Additionally, there is stacks of holiday accommodation available in town at that time of year. I do handyman work for one of the real estate agents in town, so I can act as a go between, if a house or unit is the preferred option.
Let me know your thoughts on the date that suits you and a decision will be made on the most popular time. 
   For those of you that have never been to this area, this is a great opportunity to come to this great part of Australia and see some great scenery and ride some fantastic roads. A ride down the coast to the Tathra pub will be on the activity list!  :drinks:
   Regards, Pete.

Well now, that's great news. I'm not fussed about which weekend. One of them is my birthday, what better gift could I give myself than a few thousands Km ride through the High Country on the FJ, I'll be there.

   G'day Tony, Alf's FJ is up and running. Fitted new valve stem seals today, trying to cut down the oil consumption. Haven't had a chance to give it a run yet due to the rain we're getting at the moment. Hope you can make it to the shed day.
   Regards, Pete.

Peta and I stayed at Tathra the first night on the way home from Harrietville - beautiful place!

FJZ1 1200 - It'll do me just fine.
Timing has much to do with the success of a rain dance.

It's a great part of Australia down here Harvy. The ride from here, south to Tathra, is one of the best coastal (test track) rides around. Looking forward to showing it to those not fortunate enough to have ridden it. The beers not bad there either.

Hi Pete
Reserve me a bed mate, I have some catching up to do. It will give the impetus to get the old girl finished!

Edit, all hinges on me being able to get time off, but should be ok, I have 4 months of long service up my sleeve,  :good2:
