Wondering if any of the valiant owners are thinking of going to the Ace cafe Australia Day event/meet on the 24th of January ?

Hadn't thought about it. But, good point - will ask the boss if she doesn't mind having the children for the day (that will go down well!).

We had to park outside on the road as it was full at 1030. most do get their early and go before lunch. Did you see the Big Bopper Falcon?

Here's a few photos a mate took, good to meet Dave and Pete, I was feeling pretty crook unfortunately so not on particularly good form, left about 11:30 I think. Most appear to get there real early so they get a spot, then head off before lunch it appears.
