Just put Molly and Monty on Club rego. A big shout out to KlubVW Sunshine Coast who accepted us as members, there is no affiliated VW club in the Bundaberg area.
Andy retires at the end of June and we now don't have to look at selling them for a while.

Yesterday actually.
I retired.
Nearly 40 years in major construction - mechanical services.
Estimating.
The day I joined my company got its first fax machine.
Everything was measured with a ruler then you got your colouring in pencils out.
That was the fun part.
But do you colour in before or after you measure it?
All changed now.
BIM and Revit models.
3,4 and 5D models
Over it - as the shirt says “ not my problem anymore”
76 Bay Microbus - Woody
90 T3 Caravelle C Auto - Daisy

Congratulations Barry, now for some well earned distractions……
After a month or so, you’ll wonder why you hadn’t done it earlier
As Mel. said, you’re about to be busier than ever……..but on your terms.
Looking forward to catching up.
Cheers,
Mark
