SECRET - Unaugural Report

Security forces monitored the proliferation of crop circles on a sleepy
property in regional NSW this week.

Interest was piqued further as a number of tents sprouted within the
aforementioned crop circles. Reports from Saturday night's surveillance
mission by stealth aircraft indicated the presence of several black pointy
hats cavorting around a giant signal fire, and
what appeared to be a landing strip, marked at each end by flashing red
bicycle lights (a fav tool of pointy-hatted t*rr*r*sts ).

Suspicion that security forces had stumbled upon a training camp for Very
Bad People prompted several early morning
sweeps by Blackhawk helicopters filled with heavily armed troops, who slunk
home in their chopper when the light of day showed that the alleged "landing
strip" was nothing more than a mown strip with a dunny at one end and a
Naughty Stool (vacant, coz BT was disarmed) at the other.

END OF REPORT (apart from this bit): Thanks BT & Minx, for organising a
terrific time - you are true firemeisters.

This was my first ever rally - it was really great to put some more faces to
names, and practise my novice beer-witch duties so I can get Johno a beer
"properly" one of these days <grin>.

Thanks heaps everybody - (and special thanks to Tim and Jase for "escorting
" me off the property and all the way on that bloody gravel road back to
civilisation :-D ... I think I just about hit 60kmh on bits of it (is that
"winding it out", lemmiwinks???<snigger>)

Can't wait to see the pics!

I'm sorry, that's Classified information <evil grin>.

Minx took a few, but our camera's flash has failed and we were both
too busy after dark to take photos anyway.

And a fine time was had by me. ;-)

I particularly enjoying flagrantly abusing my Supreme Executive Power
by sending an almost-innocent man to the gallows, err, Naught Stool.
It would have been even better if it had been Postman Pat.

Note to Theo: An Ivory Tower is only half the story, you really have
to arbitrarily wield Supreme Executive Power to truly feel alive! :-D

Nobody seemed interested in the T-shirts, so they're available to
anyone who requests them. Also, Jase didn't want his Golden
Housebrick award (must have been upset about being sent to the naughty
stool) so it's up for grabs too.

The other trophies went to:

Longest Distance - Peter Tippett, from Brunswick Vic;
Longest Distance per cc: Johnnie5, coming from Sydney on a CT110;
Smallest Engine Capacity: Johnnie5, again for his CT110;
Hard Luck: My sister-in-law Danielle, for being married to my brother
Tim;
Longest Distance (bicycle): A joint award to my nieces Emily and
Isabel, and nephew Michael, for riding around the paddock on old half-
wrecked bicycles when Aeek failed to show up from Bungendore.

We had plenty of food left over this year, which is certainly better
than having too little. I even managed to keep my eyebrows while
lighting barbecues and putting out the spreading grass fire around the
bonfire, not that you can notice anyway.

I've also got some spare souvenir plates (http://hok.smugmug.com/
gallery/2806294#149836566) for anyone who wants to ask for them and
stump up the postage. ;-)

Looking forward to next year already!


BTH

 

me too!!!!

Oh poop, I forgot to collect a lovely souvenir plate - (although the beer
witch hat is safely stowed - and what a beautiful hat it is, too!) Can you
put one aside for me, BT, pleeeease? Can't possibly NOT have something that
says "Unaugural 2007", especially as it was my first rally!

Thanks again for a great time!

Anybody heard from Melbourne Peter? <calling> Yoohooooo, Peter - did you get
back ok? Did the return trip strengthen your resolve to get a new seat?

betty

 

Yep, he SMSed me this afternoon to say that he'd arrived safely. He
also assured me that he had a splendid time, although maybe he was
just being polite. ;-)


BTH

 

Nah, I reckon he was telling the truth - it was a splendid time for
everyone! That was a bloody good effort, I reckon - all the way from
Melbourne and not knowing a soul.... (then again, somebody who dangles from
great heights for a living is OBVIOUSLY a gutsy person! <grin>)

betty

 

I'm glad everyone had a great time .... next year I won't pike
.....honest.

I had fun at home playing nurse anyways

Did you wear one of those crisply starched caps and a whiter-than-white
aprons, and sensible white no-nonsense lace-up shoes????? <evil grin>

Hope to see you next year (and hope the fallout from the dental work
subsides soon - <shudder> eeewwwww, dental work.......)

betty, feeling safe now that BT's
Supreme Executive Whistle and
red cards are out of range

 

hmmmmm I don't think the image of me in a nurse outfit is really that
necessary, do you? ;-)

I think it's getting better ... it wasn't me, so I'm fine

Personally, I would of just ignored the strange man with the whistle
.....

oh, absolutely necessary! In fact, you probably ought to wear it to the next

Yeah, you just got to wear the funny costume <grin> Ugh, I have ultimate and
unlimited sympathy (and empathy) for all undergoers of dental-surgery, no
matter who/where in the universe they may be.....

Easy for YOU to say!!!!!!

betty, obviously sucked in by the
Supreme Executive Power that
BT said he had!

 

As I am not a photographer (you will see) these pics will only be available
from this site for 14 days before they are taken down. I had a fantastic
time and promise if I am invited again I will be better prepared so as not
to leave so early (sorry again) and be able to help with the clean up. The
ride back wasn't as painful as the ride up for some weird reason keeping in
mind I made the trip up over 2 days, but I am defiantly going to see a
motor trimmer mate this week as soon as I get the time. It was great to be
able to put some names to faces. BTH and Minx, well done!

yes dear <snigger>

Mate, I had a ball - it was really great to be feeling comfortable
doing my own thing - chatting/boozing/beer-witching/sitting quietly in
the tent. I loved it.

Definitely want to do the PI thing with aus.moto now! Who do I need to
talk to, to organise a spot for myself?

Um.... just one question, petal.... New uniform? WTF? The pointy hat's
not enough?

betty, ordering voluminous flowing black robes
and a broomstick

 

Mp problem mate. You didn't wake *me* up, and the people you did were
all up and about and ready to be conscripted into making breakfast,
etc. ;-)

Of course it's quicker! It's all DOWNHILL! Just look at a map, man:
you're going from top to bottom!

I know I harp on about this, but get yourself a sheepskin. Once
you've had a dead sheep you'll never go back.

Always a pleasure, Peter.


BTH

 

Arrgh, I'm so dissapointed that I piked out.
It certainly looks like a fun event (although I'm SURE I would've spent
pretty-much the whole rally on the Naughty-Stool!)

 

I'm drinking a shot of your Bounty right now....


BTH

 

Too much information ...

Cheers
