What a great time was had by all this Easter at Jindabyne. Who will ever forget the Sunday Cruise to Dalgety. 70+ cars in convoy . What a day!!! FEs & FCs as far as the eye could see. Then there was the photo shoot at the local garage. Now that was a special sight. To the organising committee Thank You. Now can we take off our wrist bands. :)

Yes, you can take off your wrist bands now!  ;D

Thanks for your positive comments and we're glad you had a great time.

I look forward to seeing you at Phillip Island.

Cheers,

Graham  :D

FROM THE ORGANISING SIDE OF THINGS, SOMETIMES IT APPEARED THAT IT WENT TOO QUICK!!

But, I agree. It was sad to see it all come to an end.

I'm very glad you all enjoyed it so much.

Just as a matter of interest, have any of you eaten your lollies??? Or are you all just going to keep them somewhere on a shelf???

It's a bit hard to sing karaoke whilst looking through the bottom of a glass, eh Craig?

Thanks for the kind words guys. Our main aim for the weekend was to make the entrants smile  :D. I think we succeeded with that.

Thank You all very, very much for a wonderful weekend ,my wife and I haven't stopped talking about it and I couldn't wait to get home, once we'd left Jindabyne, to get on the forum and talk to our new family.

BEST NATS EVER - until next year anyway  ;D

On behalf of myself and my family, we had a great time and all the efforts made to run these events should not be underestimated.
 Congrats to Graham and his team from the ACT as everything went very well and all possible areas were well covered.

Just to echo all those thoughts... I thought the weekend was fantastic, even if it seemed to end much too quick!!!

The organisation of everything was first class, and I'm sure everyone enjoyed it. It was a very relaxing weekend, but we're all still knackered as there was so much to see and do.

It was great to meet new friends, put faces to those forum names, and catch up with others we already knew.... and too see some very high quality FEs and FCs was a huge bonus!!!

I have to say I am plesantly surprised how much my wife and kids enjoyed the weekend too!! They met and made new friends too, and thoroughly enjoyed themselves... My wife particularly enjoyed not having to worry about feeding us all weekend too ;)

In fact they are now pushing toward travelling to Melbourne mext year much more than I expected them too ;D It also helped that the car went so weel with no dramas at all...

Awesome weekend guys!!
Thanks heaps
Les.....

What a weekend all those FE-FC's, great place, well organised, kind weather and fantastic people.

 Kate and I have just got in the door, first destination the forum to read the responses and look at all the pix.

Is there a hard luck trophy for the trip home Tony Galea driving home @ 50mph and us with two blowouts the second with no spare, thanks to Martin for the use of his spare, EFFEE did look odd with a stocky wheel and tire on the front.

Anyway all this did, was add to the experience.

Again congratulations to the organisers on a great 4 days

Hi to you all.  FC VAN arrived home safely on Wed. arvo.
I would like to endorse all the preceeding comments and add our sincere thanks to the Canberra Team for their "SUPER EFFORT". I will remember the snaking line of FE & FCs as they made their way to Dalgety, the karaoke night [which in my view bonded the crowd & had us all laughing like teenagers.] The Presentation Night was superb .
Thanks to "Tailshaft Timmy" for taking us up to Thredbo and the walk from the Chairlift -- we know you didn't need that Tim after all you had already done!!
My congratulations to the National Delegates on the successful changes to the Judging system. Spreading the Trophies around the way this has turned out is "the way to go".
Whilst we are pleased to be safely Home,we do feel a bit flat after  a great time with such a friendly team of new and old friends.
looking forward to Phillip Island & will need to extract the digit to get my wagon finished. Thankyou from the two OLD-BLUs. ;) ;)

Even though i passed on my congratulations to all the organising committee of the ACT club on a truly fantastic Nationals i feel obligated to pass my thoughts on again to ALL those concerned in the running of the best Nats yet!!!! I came home with a sore throat from all the Talking and a little! drinking it was sad to leave all the great people but reasssuring that the majority will make the trip to Phillip Island for the 2006 Nats. We are all so lucky to be in such great inclusive movement. Our trip home was a long one after finally getting Tony Galea back on the road about 1.00pm in Cooma after the repair of the gear stick tube!! A special thanks to Colin and Jackie Tierny and Julius and Nicola Goboly for there support and assistance. The Cooma garage guy was fantastic as well. We all arrrived home around midnight last night to give the well worked grey motors a deserved rest after just over 1250 miles!! Anyway on to Phillip Island organisation we have only 12 months "OH MY"

Hi all,
     Have been to all 10 Nationals and this Nats was by far the best. Great company, cars, location and best of all great team work from the ACT Club. Was sad it had to end am feeling a bit flat at the moment but will fire up for Phillip Island in 2006. Also big thanks to Colin and Jackie Tierny, Julius and Nicola Goboly and Kev who let me us his tool and work shop in Cooma and all the support in getting my FC back on the road for the long haul home at 50-55 miles and ariving home safe and sound at midnight.
 Thanks Heaps
      Tony and Dina Galea.
