Greg for his birthday. Will ring him tonight. Lovely warm morning at 8am 12
degrees inside and 10 degrees out. Off for another lovely shower. Quiet day
working on blog, finances etc and Steve fixing something on the truck. Workers
busy installing all the bits and pieces for the race. The big TV screens have
arrived on trucks to be erected around the track.
How
many blokes does it take to put up a TV!!

Relaxing
day enjoying the warmth then the breeze turns into gusty wind. Steve tied down
the awning as it’s having a flapping good time.
Went
for drive into town to get a couple more things from Bunnings. Past an old house with a fascinating tower.
Found
the Gold Panner Man (one of the Big Icons). It was made in Maryborough.
The
Big Rigs start to arrive in town. The three 888 ones.

Past
a few more old houses – these terraced ones are nice.

Someone
is making a house out of the old water reservoir!!
Gate
4 opposite Harris Park Car Park is where we will be gate keepers each morning –
it is the biggest gate!!! Can’t stuff too much up I hope.
A
few more have moved in – no one with us yet.
Two
big motorhomes – one towing a car and the other the camper. Found them later
having difficulties about their campsite!!
Went
for a walk around the entire campground checking out all the different camp
sites. With all the wind the sky started looking funny. There was a real split
in these two clouds.
“Flag
Inn” at the corner of Falcon Freeway and
“Ford Place” Leo Geoghegan Ave (his relative bought our family’s Millaa Millaa
house).
Louis’
campsite is in Skaife Avenue – he won’t be pleased. Boys left this morning so we should see them tomorrow night.
Whincup’s
Ave is up the highest. Great view from the top corner next to Mountain
Straight.
All
the lanes are now named after drivers, eg Lowndes’ Avenue.
The
Bathurst Hilton is all set up.
We
have a chequered flag at the entrance to our street – Gran Turismo Drive.
Haven’t
got used to the time change yet. The wind is getting wilder so into the van for tea and TV.
