Now that's quick. First to volunteer.

Fine then I should put myself down for the second to volunteer.

Hi Christos, it was great to meet up today, sorry I can't join you tomorrow, you get to have more fun and chocolate I have to work to pay for the tools and timber I bought today

Yeah I can relate. But as I am going back there on the Saturday and Sunday, I expect to be in a bigger hole then you.

I think a have a few dollars left on the credit card.

Ah Claw hammer forgot you in my list

and Colin

I was there , and I can prove it, I'm the fit looking bloke on the right in Pic7 (your sposed to tell me when taking a pic so I can suck the belly in and push the chest out).
I was a tad nervous at the prospect but thoroughly enjoyed it and will be doing it again next year.
Most of the people that stopped by were members and the lounge was well patronised by other exhibitors which was good as they were often interesting to talk to (some were all talked out and just wanted to relax).
As I say, had a ball and would recommend it to anyone else who may have been keen but was a bit nervous at the prospect.
While the schoolies are a PIA, it was good to see that we had some genuine interest from a few so the next generation has been locked in.

Nick did you get to see John using the Oval Lathe???

Thanks for the cuppas guys was great just to be able to sit down and enjoy a cuppa without children of the damned all over you,bit disapointed came all the way over and no Bosch gear whatsoever,wanted to eyeball the gts 10 saw,settled for Makita MLT100. instead

I also enjoyed my spell on the stand yesterday. If it wasn't for the vagaries of public transport on a weekend, I'd would have put my name down for today as well.
Have fun today and tomorrow.
