Just me 003.jpgHi Capt
On the 28th Feb when you get up to the Mountains,i will be waiting at the Entrance to the Skyway by the Statues !
I hope to get there a wee bit early so as i may catch you before you start on your escapades up and down the Steep Incline Railway,the Skyway,and other things there!
Will still be donning the Beard and more than likely will be wearing my Aussie Hat ?
Depending on the Weather!
Have been having so much rain of late,and cool Temps,but the forecast is for much Warmer Weather funnily from the 27th.
Cheers

Hi Fans,
Had a good day out with Lou and his family, we were not in for long, six hours but I had time to get to Dunedin to meet up with our Lou. Had lunch and a few beers then had to go get the bus back. but it was worth the trip.
Cheers Lou and thanks for everything.
Brian
