    Some more sad news

    Some may remember that this time last year, I posted news about one of the early club members, Jeff and Vicky (Fat50 and then Pseudo on Aulro), and the passing of Jeff's son. There is now another tragic twist to this tale.

    Jeff's son was cremated and his ashes spread just before the causeway down at Yellowpinch, Mt Barney. On the anniversary of his death, Jeff went down alone to pay memory to his son. It seems while down at the river, which was swollen from the rain, he slipped and fell to be swept away and drown.

    Vicky is understandably distraught, and coping the best she can.

    Sorry to bring everyone's Christmas down, but you were a good friend Jeff, your company will be missed, and I enjoyed every time we went out 4wding.

    Rest in Peace Mate.

    Vicky will need some help to move on the wheels, bar work and other stuff from his old Disco's and the old wheels from the D3 if anyone can help.

    That is just crap news. Masayo and my condolences to Vicky if you read this

    Jeff was a great guy and I was looking forward to being able to get around a campfire again with them now back in the club.

    Yes, I beleive they rejoined the club and even came to one of the meetings this year. I distinctly remember phoning Mrs Ho Har and her saying, "Guess who is here?" In the early days they used to go Wheeling with Sam (Def90) and his mates.

    The back frame on my 130 was welded together by Jeff and I one Saturday at the panel shop. I will have to go to my old Restaurant I used to manage and order a large mexican pizza with triple BBQ sauce tomorrow night as a tribute to Jeff and his Friday afternoon dinner.

    I'm just gutted.
