We all had a really good time, wonderful to see so many Blitzes.
Howard, good to see you've posted a photo of the oldest Blitz attending, besides the other one ![]()

Hopefully within the next day or so I will be able to post a list of the vehicles at Corowa this year.
If anyone has a story about their trip to Corowa, trip home from Corowa or a story they would like me to include in my newsletter report please email it to me. I have Swiss Chris putting a story together for me and would like a few other stories. This article appeared in the Border Mail Newspaper on Friday.

It took months, but Emma painstakingly and lovingly removed all the dirt, caked-on grease, oil and paint from this cab 12 and then just as carefully applied the paint... all with her tongue.
Here is a pic of her after she had steam cleaned and sandblasted her tongue back to normal.

Good to see you keep your dogs well trained, Emma. Do you feed them much? A mate of mine had working dogs, but he just couldn't feed them enough, always hungry, everything they ate just went straight through. He took them to the Vet, and found the problem:

My, my, my, looks you all had a lot fun.
I have to hand it to you, Australian friends: you all know how to organise and enjoy a good HMV show! Here's hoping our neutral European representative behaved properly. And of course he was taking that beautiful F15 with him to Switzerland. They should have at least one example of a proper truck with an engine running like a Swiss watch. A big hand for Keith for restoring that truck in record time. Well done! ![]() ![]() Hope to make it down to Corowa one day. . . Hanno

Hanno,
You will be made more than welcome when you come to Australia. I will be looking out for you at Normandy 2009. We will have to make a time and place to meet. Corowa for the next few years will be as follows: 2010 The Year of the Jeep. 2011 The Year of the British and European Vehicle 2012 The Year of the 6X6 (anything with 3 driven axles) 2013 The Year of the Trailer and Towed Equiptment. So please put these themes in you diary for future planning. Regards Rick

I have just received a copy of the Corowa Free Press which was put out on Wednesday 18th March. There are 2 pages of great photos and a number of them have MLU members in them. There is a great photo of Sidney & Errol Holgate, Rick Cove, Ian Grieve, Tim Scriven and Bob Moseley with his dog.
Other coverage was done by Jeep Action Magazine, Truckin Life and Owner Driver magazine.
