It was great to meet you all and to have a chat and a few beverages. Uncle Ho, thanks for your understanding about Lee - being an ex-biker you know how he felt about his bikes - and for being there to talk to. Peter (ivery819) confused me by having an AULRO sticker with the name Dirty Luxury under it. I was blowed if I could recall that username on the forum.


I was also very pleased to finally meet Numpty's Missus (Pat) (oh, and Numpty (Perry) ). I bet she no longer lies in bed thinking of me! And she looks just like Bushie! (Ooh, that will earn me a hit over the head!)

.
What! NM has a long flowing beard?

Do you remember that Readers Digest used to run a monthly story "The Most Unforgettable Person I Ever Met"?

There you are, Pedro, you make the grade as "The Most Forgettable Person I Ever Met"?

Sorry about that.

Ahh, the County weekend. That's when the Rangie broke the flex plate outside Orange and I had to have it flat-bedded back to Penrith where I opicked up the County and returned to Orange.

Was Clive at Cooma? I'm sure he walked in with you at registration.

Ron
Yes Clive was there is his red Stage 1 V8 (the only one), sons Neal in his blue County V8 & Chad with white Rangie with twin rear wheel carriers (only one I think). Hugh also came with me instead of bringing his 130, but helped with fuel bill in Rangie.

That's OK mate, yes it was a good long converstion on Saturday did me the world of good, I hope for you as well.
