Default Melton Show & Shine

G'Day All,

As part of the Djerriwarrh Festival in Melton this weekend there is the 2nd annual Show & Shine.

November 10th
10.00am to 3.00pm
Hannah Watts Park Melton Melway Ref 337 C8 (Just down the road from ACE)

Entry $20.00

Plenty of trophies up for grabs, raffles, sausage sizzle, there's rides and all sorts of activities for the kids etc etc.

I was there last year with my ute and the funny car.

This year the organisers have asked me to bring it down again which i will with the territory, it's not a bad day.

Put your name down if your interested.

Cheers Craig

Yep just roll up and enter on the day, i would suggest if there's a group from the club then we meet at my shop and go down there together.

It's going in on Wednesday to get done Ron.

Will try and do a bit on the car when I get home from work every night this week. Engine bay is still suffering from the visit to Heathcote - just full of dust. Weather forecast is for 24 and dry, so I'll be there.

Cheers

Man I HATE Melbourne weather... Went out on a beautiful day, did a little shopping, had lunch at ACE. Bought some more polish and wax to get the T up to par, and as soon as I get home, the weather turns to shyte. Oh well, got the engine bay almost clean, and the leather is all clean. But nothing exterior could be done, as I only have a carport. Looks like my ORSM alarm is set for ungodly again. Wash at the Car wash and, weather permitting, polishing in front of ACE at early light.

Weather sux........

Mine isn't finished either, Kev. Saw the clouds and stayed in the city for a few hours longer than planned - no point in going home when I can have a social life! I'm a bit over it - turning into the AFD in Adelaide, where I spent all morning (at the show battling rain) trying to salvage my week of detailing.

Keep smiling and mark it down to a social day and we'll have fun.

Cheers
