G'Day all have a great time at Corowa. I met a fiew of you early in the week but unfortunatly I had to return home Tuesday night as my Father had a massive heart attack ad passed away. His funeral will be Monday then life will have to go on. My blitz is still at Corowa and hopefully will be in the parade. I have arranged a lift down with a truck on Saturday to pick the blitz up I will try to get in a fiew quick hellows but the truck driver won't want to waste too much time. Bob I hope the dash isof some use to you. Thank you for the support you have given me.
Regards Robert.

Hello Robert,

Sorry to hear your sad news, I have just gone through the same with my mother in January so know how you feel.

After all your hard work getting the Blitz on the road, at least you got it to Corowa, always next year though.

best regards, Richard

... as you probably now, I arrived with Keefy last evening.

I had my second drive today, around the river. Doesn't she look beautiful??
