here here...i go out every second month into town with some members of the mini forun im in and i called it the MDC mini drinkers club , we hit town at friday night at gilhollies for a few lagars and a laugh , if someone from interstae is visiting we all meet up and put on a welcome party. maybe we could start one here. we dontr play up so wives are welcom. let me know , its a good way to mingle and network.

Yep true....its a good idea.Also for those who are on a shorter leash like myself the odd dyno day gets everyone to put faces to names. I talk to Jon Bays on a pretty regular basis now for example....and meet up occasionally and just talk whatever we feel like..namely fords:}

Its a better place now more than ever. As Australians, we dominated our previous forum, now that one, totally dedicated to us has become a reality, we can become closer and talk more on topics of interest to all.

good thread. this is always the first place i visit when time permits, for a laugh, for conversation and debate. but most importantly to pick the brains of the technical folks when i have problems.
