    Default Down Under Turn Around 2014.

    Hi to all Woodturners,
    Well, it is that time again. Can't wait to go to Cowes, Vic. again. We get so well looked after, & it could be no better.
    This is on Fri.12th, Sat.13th. & Sun.14th. Sept. 2014.
    Not supposed to be there earlier than 1.30pm. Fri.
    Caroline, Bruce Giulio & Sue are a Great Combination, & they always have a couple of helpers.
    So Aprox. 130 People, 75 Lathes, 2 Sleeps, 6 Meals, & the Morning & Afternoon Teas, are out of this World.
    If you have a Turning Problem, you just ask, as there is Giulio, Vic, Ken, Paul, Bruce, & the list goes on. Carrolls will be there, & I think Neil, Pauline with their u Beaut Products, Wood to be bought from a couple of Suppliers, Well made Turning Tools as well, Raffle, Silent Auction, has to be seen to be believed. Usually, the Gym stays open till 11.30pm +-, & opens a bit after 6am.
    Cleanup starts about 11.45am. Sun.
    If you think you might go, I think the List maybe Full by now, but you could leave your name on a short list as sometimes there are circumstances where at the last moment they can't go, & you could be in.
    You could leave you Details with Caroline & Bruce on 0359 567 300.
    Hope to see quite a few Forumites again this Year
    Regards,
    issatree.
    Have Lathe, Wood Travel.

    Sorry Guys but I couldn't hang around in Melb any longer, plus both shoulders are having troubles, so I am home again in Qld to try and get well enough for Procerpine although even that is in doubt .

    Have fun though as I am sure you will, maybe another year

    Default DUTA.

    Hi Pat, Jeff,
    Please say Hello when you are settled.
    I wear a White Chemical Suit with Beard & Glasses.
    They'll all jump on this. If you need any assistance, just say so, & I don't Turn all the time, so my Lathe is available, just by asking. Do you have a Lady coming Pat, as the Ladies check out all the Shops in Cowes.
    Will be good to see you again Jeff & I take it your Lady is coming as well.
    Regards,
    issatree.
    Have Lathe, Wood Travel.

    Yes, Lewis, will be down with the wife again.

    And I will drop in to say hello - that white jump suit makes you stand out in the crowd. Weather forecast not good Friday setting up!

    Default The wording.

    Well, it wasn't good grammar, was it.
    I have an almost White Beard that goes with the White Suit, but I also wear Glasses.
    Good to hear your Lady will be there Pat, & the ladies that have been going, will look after Her.
    Beesncheese, we have had 2 Turners coming over from Tassie, & I know 1 is here Wed. as a friend is to pick him up from the Ferry.
    Starting to pack Wed. Arvo. & will head off Fri. 10am. It is a bit over 200 K's. for us, & we will not stop till we get there.
    As usual, it will be good to see you all, as there is bound to be some new faces too. All the more the merrier.
    Regards,
    issatree.
    Have Lathe, Wood Travel.
