Went to the beach today

Post by Tim »

I needed to get some photos of the Moke for the upcoming "Mokin' Downunder" event, so I went for a quick spin at lunchtime. The weather has been absolutely awful here, luckily its starting to pick up now.

Rubbish.

I've been following the Channel 7 Weather Girl around the Tassy Triangle all this week and it's been anything but 'awful'.

Yeah this week has been mostly OK. It rained pretty much every day in January. I've barely had the Moke out.

I see what you mean about the rust in your Moke Tim, there's a big hole in the side of it.

Nigel, any time you want the Aussie Experience, you're welcome here any time mate, I'll put you up (or is that put up with you?).

Remember, it is a Moker's Paradise here :)

And, you don't need a criminal record anymore :mrgreen:


But, the way the weather - Our Summer - has been (just about all season), don't put you jumpers or coat away, just yet.

Its a sticker, a piece of vinyl wrap with a camouflage pattern. I'm thinking about wrapping it to hold all the rusty bits on.

Spider.... A bit late, but I'm feeling slow at the mo. What's been anything but awful? The weather you've been following or the weather girl you've been following?
And I may yet hold you to your offer :mrgreen:

She's coming back to the Mainland on Thursday,,,,,





Oh, Westlake, nice photo mate :)

I could, but everyone has seen it now, and I'm not a member.

There should be plenty of good photos from the event.
