Post by: Vettech on December 08, 2016, 10:32:31 AM: Yes all days, and Mr Rusty, we are not loud - our cars maybe loud only because they are PROPER V8's that run on PROPER Fuel, not woossssssy bbq gas.

Title: Re: February 10-12 2017 Nelson Bay Weekend Now With Pics
Post by: Vettech on December 09, 2016, 02:02:57 PM: 4 v record I currently have 5 cars plus one loan car. All R running, one 78 not registered, runs but I doubt it can reverse out of the garage, none run on BBQ gas.
Even the bubble, sorry Toyota Yaris, runs on petrol, albeit not much petrol, come to think of it, I must remember its due to be refilled this month.

You're welcome to it, but take it somewhere far away from Sydney.
Title: Re: February 10-12 2017 Nelson Bay Weekend Now With Pics
Post by: Vettech on February 13, 2017, 02:16:11 PM: What a great Corvette Summer, but alas there were pykers and those henpecked who at least turned up, but not in Vettes.
My hat goes off to The Smiths, both Ray and Joy put in a great deal of effort, for a fantastic result, everything was great.
Also a thankyou to Kiwi Col, and any of the little helpers - great weekend, great weather, great location, great people.
Of course "what happens in Nelsons Bay stays at the Bay"

LATE FINAL EXTRA - the Health Dept has closed the pool due to unusually high levels of alcohol in the water - Ummmmmm!!!??!!?

Post by: Vettech on March 10, 2017, 04:10:24 PM: So! Question.
1. You have organised this with the resort ?
2. Have you reserved rooms. ?
