Sandie Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 Where will you be Rod ? I'm phoning / texting through updates for Ron Malm to put on the yahoo boards and we might be able to save each other some duplicated effort. I try and get in the front row of the grandstand on turn one that looks (nearly) down the home straight. It's to the left as you look at the track (to the right if you had your back to the track) of the Merbein Hill. I'm short and jockey size with glasses and 50'ish. If you see Big Fat Dave on your travels he knows me !! (as does Bryn and a few others). It is 11 hours difference between Vic and the UK and you only lose/gain half an hour between SA and Vic. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Blast - that shattered my illusion of you be 26, Tall and Blonde!!

Guest Sir Lunchalot Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 Blimey Chris Holder looks like he had a nightmare meeting!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Chris was interviewed before the meeting started and I can't remember his exact words but the message was he did not particularly enjoy the track and did not ride the track well. It was one of those ones whether you don't know if he genuinely just had a bad night or had half talked himself into it before he even got out on the track.

BigFatDave Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 Just got back to Darwin - hot 'n sweaty already! The Adelaide Advertiser had a little article on Johnno today - He's up on assault charges for snotting someone allegedly in the Glenelg Hotel - evil places those S.A. Pubs! http://www.news.com.au/adelaidenow/story/0...99-2682,00.html As for me - Cricket's on, Beers in the Fridge and the Dog has got me pinned to the floor - could be walkies when the rain stops!

PS -Johnno's exploits are already covered by two other threads. We are quick over here!! Keep us updated if you read or hear anything. He may have beaten Roo for that 3rd place but he's one of the good guys. I hope he cn find a way of getting back for the start of the season Edited January 16, 2007 by Sandie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFatDave Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 Come in Big Fat Dave you have got somthing to say about everything, so i'm all ear's. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> G'is a minute Oz! Only got back yesterday, my brain's still somewhere between here & Alice Springs and I've gotta go see the Quack about this nasty rash I've picked up somewhere along the line. (And she seemed such a nice girl!) Sorry to say you missed a ripper series; outstanding performances by the top 6 Aussies plus the Two To-'n-Froms; the Weirdest first corner you'll ever see (at Sydderney, where you had a virtual 90 degree lefthander at the end of the start straight, 60mph to 20mph in 1 second), Gillman the best night's racing I've seen in Yonks and Mt Gambier a fitting finish. Tom Hedley and Cory Gathercole definite names for the future. I'll try and do a "What I did on my Holidays" later!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
