I’ve just been looking at Waggajag’s granddaughter’s pictures. What the hell was I talking about when this photo was taken? Maybe some people could caption this for me.



PS. Say hi to Maxine for me.

Cheers, Danny

Thanks Austin for all your efforts, fantastic show, and thankyou to all the background people who made it possible.

Bev and myself had a great time, it was great to meet so many new friends, but as they say what happens on a cruise stays on a cruise. (whipped cream for breakfast, aside)

"WELL DONE" Austin, all the organisers and ALL the FORD owners showing at the "Wagga All Ford Day" show n shine. The sun was a killer and paying for it now but will do it all again within a blink of an eye, it was worth it!
Spewin we couldn't get a seat @ the friday night dinner, she was packed! being our first AFF event i was out to meet n greet a few of the members before the show BUT no matter we were pretty well stuffed & i'd already well over necked a bottle of jacks.
Got home in really good time 6.15am->3.30pm with a 90minute stop at Ballarat for lunch. Shaved off heaps of k's from going off the hume at seymour threw the pucka, daylesFORD, creswick way.

Anyhoo...I would be back next year (if its on) but it will clash with my bi-annual xmass cruise to Perth, however...2007.... is another story. i vill be dere
Will post some pics soon as i resize.

Have fun, be safe, AND KEEP ON CRUISING! :

What a great weekend it was in Wagga,it was good to enjoy the hospitalities of the locals up there and see the nice town of Wagga.
Special thanks to Austin and Teesha, what an effort they put in plus all the other helpers behind the scene too to mention all, it was great to catch up and see you and all the other Forums members good to put faces to the names,especially Maurie and his boys,really enjoyed your company,Jason(JR) plus Minge,Jeff and Nicole,Mark & Trish,Danny,Dave & Brom,Melz,Dwayne, Julie and Connor ,and all the others from interstate,there sure were some nice looking Fords on display.

Left at 10.30am got home 4.15,stopped for 1/2 hr so the trip took only 5.1/4hrs not bad i thought, did 483 Klm at 11.3 lt/Klm with the Air Con on all the way,worked out that my range would be about 580Klm to the tankful for country driving sitting mostly on 110 - 115 Klm.Got home unpacked all the gear washed the car and she's all packed away again.Till next time.
Cheers John

Thanks Austin & Teesha for organising this one, and the efforts of all those that made a showing. Good effort getting the cars up to scratch after a touch of rally work to get to the display area. Met up with Danny, GTP-320 and a few other forumites along the way.

Apologies once again Austin I couldn't get down in time to fill a spot. It was wet and miserable when I left Sydney yesterday, to find clear skies overhead Wagga, which made for a top day.

Overtaken by the Ticky NSW club on the leisurely run home with the AWC/3FB boys, more talking sh|te at Yass before moving on home.

Ah yeahs, Chief did mention something about those scones?

Well WHAT a weekend ! :sm_headba
Congrats to Austin and Teesha for all your hard work in getting us to invade Wagga : Beautiful FORDS everywhere :sm_headba
Love your suntan Austin Sunday morn :hihi:
Great effort to everyone else involved.

Nothing like cruising in a pack ! The drive down was great,stopped at Yass to met Bucky and Creepy then onto Wagga.
The flys at Yass was a swarm :evil_laug squashed bugs over the front ends was a easy meal for the buggers.

Great to have met many ppl from the FF.au family....
The Melb crowd, John (GTP320) and family,Laminge and his Blueprint sidekick :hihi: ,Mr and Mrs xacoupe,Full Noise.
Mr and Mrs Creepy and many more.
Hats off to Daryl (Red06) making the treck from Qld.
To the Canberra boys led by the one and only Nancy boy !
What an excellent vid Buck, hope Conner survived being terrorised by Dexter :hihi:
Chef and XDMachine great cars guys.
The usual 3fb suspects,JR,DK and Darky,Adam Mark and son Steve (a trip he won't forget)


Many many fine motor cars at the show from old to current, Danny's and John's BA's were immaculate ! Kerry's Red Baron.
Minginator ! Clint's WILD Blueprint Turbo leaving his signiture at the front of the Lawson come midnight Sat :hihi: :sm_headba

Couple of big feeds but I'm sure La Poor Service won't be visited next time.
The Lawson was perfect, I'm sure my son Dexter insists on staying no where else, fully sic for the scooter,mind you I was poop scared he may loose it and scratch a car

To the fly's,sun and Wagga,see ya next time :1syellow1

Finally got to get back on the forums!

Awesome day, Austin & Teesha: you guys did a fantastic job - congratulations to you and everyone that helped you out.

For a first time show it was great to see so many cars there, and the quality was excellent. Congratulations to all the award winners, all very deserving indeed.

Great to catch up with everyone again, and also to meet some new faces, these shows are so much more than just a car show, the social aspect would have to be one of the biggest highlights of the weekend!

Looking forward to the next one!

Cheers
Dave

Good old nancy.

Connor survived. Between the crankyness, crying and bad attitude (that was me) Connor did ok. You know what kids are like. Fight and cry, 2 minutes later, playing happily together. :jab:

Couldn't ask for a better day weather wise, nice roll up of cars, and nice to meet some new faces, and catch up with some old ones.

What's the deal with all the red and blue cars people? Every second car was either red or blue, explore the limits of the colour palatte.

Isinit amazing that "warren" has showed his head up here yet. That "cream" was probably the cause of him falling asleep on the drive back. It was funny how he woke up though.
