No steam rollers ,and they have got rid of all the pottted trees and most of all you are not allowed to wear your shoes to bed now ,come to think of it ,maybe we should start a thread about practical jokes and general playing up ,no it might be too incriminating ,come to think of it I wonder if the motorcycle rider ever caught up with Peter K and found out how a sump full of oil got on the road

Change your flight, a few of good old boys will be running at Timaru but not at Ruapuna. and quite a few will be in attendence
Blenheim Road Motor Inn, the only thing that hasn't changed is the furniture in the motel units. hiteknz, I seem to recall that you were one of the chief instigators of issues that night (and and at quite a few other post event nights too)

[ronmac]

HI carl..hiteknz..and tweaks..i think it might be easier for the old boys to race at ruapuna than me to try to change my flights..i will do it better next year..do you think we might be better at old harry holts chateau commadore ?? where we wont be recognised.? by the way.what have u done with my old friend..little marion.?? hav.nt seen her for years... remember grady thompson had a house wrecking party in wellington..house caught fire..and got taken away by the cops...had to make a donation to charity..ron.
