| With the Edsel not finished in time due to a top suspension ball joint not arriving in time from Dennis Carpenters, I had to go in the daily driver Passatt. A comfortable no thrills ride down ensued and we arrived at Billing around 5:30pm. The caravan was quickly set up, time for a cold one and something to eat. After being fed and watered, it was time sit back and freeze - it was bloody cold I can tell you and the two brass monkey's I saw looking for a welder thought so too. Into the marquee where it was marginally warmer but after a few more cold ones it started to warm up but more than likely it was the beer taking effect. Lou the resident DJ played some decent tunes and soon had the place hotting up even I got up dancing with the missus (A sight you don't see to often). Again it ended to soon and the majority headed back to carry on the night at there respective camps. |
