2 Days to go, just a quick note that there is construction on the side road and closed road signs posted. The road is open and passable just go around the sign, hopefully they leave it that way for the weekend. Preparation is slightly behind as our grandmother passed away and we had funeral stuff etc to deal with this week. We look forward to seeing everyone this weekend.

Default where have all the tim tams gone

I hear that the tim tam monster was at CC7
as soon as he saw the tim tams he couldn't control his urge for the aussie delicacey so he swooped in and grabbed them to take back to his nest in Owen Sound

Max, we did see Mark & Emma on Saturday. Both are happy and looking well! The weather here is 'iffy' right now, but good enough, although our two pet Aussies had to leave early on to get set for the wedding. It didn't rain til well after tea though, so I hope they had a good time!

CC7 was small but great this year... attended by a very tight bunch who've known each other for a long time, it was more like a good family gathering than a traditional 'show'. But you know what? Those are the best...

Pics will follow but Sally and I had a wonderful time there, and I swear I gained about five pounds this weekend! The 15cwt water truck and Stewart's T-16 were running after tea, then we wrapped things up before the storm hit.

I will have more to say in the next day or two but right now let me simply close by offering my thanks to the Caldwell clan once more for a job well done. They have done this seven years' running and it's time for them to take a break! We'll have something else sorted for southwestern Ontario for this time next year...

Thanks, Caldwells - you've earned it!

Default No Pix, But

Alex,

I was so busy talking all day that I forgot to take any pix at CC7.

The even was very well organized, as it always has been, and those that attended had a really go time.

Hats off to the Caldwells who did a super job of getting us together.

Well done!


Stewart
