Ulverstone Car Rally (and other stuff)Author: jawapro

Stupidly busy lately.
Went to Melbourne during the week for work - and ended up working half of today (Saturday).
So the upshot is that I haven’t posted in a while.
The only really big news (relatively speaking anyway) is that we won the Ulverstone Church Car Rally. Not bad for the ‘Out of Towners’ team. It was me, Tim, and Tom.
It wasn’t the normal sort of Rally Tim does, but one where you have to follow clues and find things - the sort you can do legally on main roads.
Probably should have warned them beforehand that the winners have to organize next years. Oh well...
We were in Tim’s Evo, which made it fun and meant we probably did more of the rally sidewise than was intended. I was all going well until Tim farted and got a flat tyre. The two are probably not related, but they happened at the same time. Tim’s spare is one of those stupid limited-use tyre things. Probably the first time his Evo’s done 80k/h on the open highway. It’s not used to going slow.
In other news, Emma came up for a while and had to call the police when a man came looking for sanctuary because he was being attacked by a group of kids. Strange times...
The usual gang got together on Friday and went to watch Despicable Me, which wasn’t bad. Most of it was fairly standard fare, but had some truly awesome moments.
So that’s it for now. Catch you on the other side.
