Hi All
We're off for the month of March to paint the house (boo! hiss!
), but are planning a few van-related activities to break up the monotony of sanding, scraping, power washing and applying acrylic. 
A day at the Races
We're going to do a day at Caulfield for the Caravan and Camping show here in Victoria in a week or so. I'd like to get the car and van out together - unfortunately, the other week Aaron got out of the car, shut the door per normal, and the whole rear tailgate glass went to pieces. If we have time to replace with the other piece of rear glass we have, Chryssi can go along too - not towing, but to be parked with the van.
The first time the van was used in two years was Xmas when we took her out for the first sortie to Portarlington. I was cleaning and packing the van at 10am the day we were due to check in (at 11am!) - so not too much in the way of extras. I still need to raid the cupboards and the shed for vintage stuff to set the scene for the day at the Races.
A Blue Flyer Wedding
We were contacted by a lovely young couple who saw the Flyer here on the forum and wanted to involve her in their special day. Well, of course, when asked if she wanted to be in the wedding, the Blue Flyer said, "I do!" So in April, they will be married beachside, and the Flyer, a whole lot of vintage bits and bobs (see "scene setting" above), and the car will provide some "colour". So, watch out Cobber! We're horning in on your space.
Cheers
