From some of the sea stories, and Aussies that I have seen in my time in OZ in 71, no beer is safe in OZ.

Sadly, this one from Tafmo... :evil3:

Alas Rick,

My work commitments and a long overdue weekend with my brother mean that I'll miss this year's function.

I'm very sorry I won't be there to help keep all those piss-pots like Ned and Seejay under control :crybaby:
you'll just have to put aside some bail money this year.... :P

I hope you all have a great run, leave the Rocks standing and hopefully we'll catch up with you next year.

Regards,
Bob (King) :cry:

I guess it's too late to tell him about the Plaque we were planning to have mounted on the oak tree in the
beer garden of The Orient in his name... :dontknow:

Mind you, it just wont be the same without Tafmo keeping me in check! His drama of course, is that he can never get me in checkmate! There's always Ned to step up to the plate. I look forward to the challenge. :oops:

It's started... :roll:

Col Kelson showing the Barman at The Frisco how to use his camera... :idea:

:type: Image

And here we are, 'The Basin Trials' at The Frisco, left to right, Pete Weyling,
Col Kelson, Dave Warren, Mark Mobley, Chris O'Keefe, Steve Shepherd and...
...Yours Truly... :3some:

:type: Image

Dave left early and very generously helped me change a blowout on my car, the
result of picking up a hunk of metal on the approach into the Harbour Tunnel...!!! #-o

Howie Henderson arrived too late for the 'official photo', but we'll all be there
with bells on tomorrow morning at Jackson's on George at 1000 (10:00AM...) \:D/
