What Pat said.....lol.... Seriously mate.....very impressive.....

Nice ride Aaron......look forward to catching up soon mate.....

Top vid Gaz.....would have been better if Craig, Dags, Robbo, Gary (g6t) and myself had made it as well though....lol Seriously.....cant wait til next year to see you all again.....

Try Chris at Rapid Systems...he's a site sponsor on here.....

Yeah, me too.....but it was cool to hear everybodys voice on the end of the line......thanks guys....

Hot tip is that Bob is going to lease the place out to a promoter so he still gets a slice of the income without the headaches of having to actually run and staff the place.......stay tuned...

Seriously.....go with Samantha(HERXRT) adie.....you'll have a top time....;

Nup.......yours if you want em' mate....

Both Jim Beam and Norton were offered the chance to run with a retro livery..... Unfortunately Norton was the only one to put up the cash for the new wrap.....Jim Beam didnt want to know....:( Bit of a shame really.....the pair of them would have looked awesome...ugh

I still have a double room booked at the Tumut Motor Inn and one at the Gables in Jindy if anybodys interested.....

Yeah...mines bloody sore too.....but Im using that "Game Ready" system and that's taken a lot of it away.... http://intl.gameready.com/ Hired it for $550 a month.....its what all the footy players use to get back on the field sooner...

Well today is the first day of my layoff.....had surgery yesterday followed by a crap night.....OD'd on pethedine and blood pressure dropped like a stone......didnt feel to flash after that I'll tell you.. So we didnt get off to the best start....the pain in the shoulder is kinda bearable ....just......but the docs given me these pills that'd knock over an elephant to help me get some sleep...

The story starts about 4 months ago......I caught a dose of the wog.....felt like crap, weak as a kitten.... Lying in bed and thought I was gonna spew.....jumped out of bed, got halfway down the hall heading for the bathroom and just passed out. Went down on my right shoulder on the floorboards....missus woke up and helped me back to bed... Didnt notice much at the time but from then on my shoulder started hurting whenever I tried to lift my arm above my head or put it behind my back?? I'd throw a chain across the deck of the truck 5 times and on the 6th time it'd hurt like hell.....so I just figured.....just harden the f*ck up and get on with it! Eventually it gets so bad that it disturbs my sleep too......so off the quack who sends me for some physio.....she pokes and prods and tells me I should see a specialist... A specialist???.....when am I gonna get the time to see a specialist ffs?....I work 12 hr+ days......every day! Take a few hours off and go see him.... The specialist does the poke and prod thing again, bends my arm into all sorts of unatural positions then tells me he thinks Ive torn a tendon....no worries he says....only one day in hospital and 3 months off.....3 MONTHS????....your kidding right?......I can tell by the look on his face that he's not.... He says he wants me to get something called an "MRI" scan so he can get a better view by X-ray?......what's an MRI scan?... "Oh' its kinda like an X-ray where they inject some dye into your shoulder and take X-rays to see how much damage there is that's all"..... I didnt think much about it till I rocked up for it and the nurse pulls out this little syringe and tells me shes gonna give me a "local".....Im thinking this is a piece of piss... THEN....the doctor pulls out this syringe about the size of a horse needle and sticks it into my shoulder joint!!..... Fast forward 3 weeks later and were back at the surgeon's rooms.....he smiles and greets me and asks how I am?.....my reply was something along the lines of....."that depends on what your gonna tell me actually"....then he stopped smiling and I knew it wasnt gonna be good news.... He tells me Ive not only torn my "rotator cuff" (doctor speak for a tendon) 2/3rds of the way off the bone but theres other damage in there as well!! And...because of this he's got to revise my recovery time......to 6 MONTHS!!......but he tries to sweeten it up by telling me theres a 90% chance of success.... I ask if theres any alternative?...he says only one....and I brighten up a little... You can let it go and just do a bit of physio.....but eventually your going feel a really sharp pain in your shoulder.....that's the tendon coming right off the bone.....then you'll find that you cant lift your arm any higher than your waist....then you'll be back to see me and I'll have to tell you that your chance of success has dropped to 60% and the recovery time has blown out to about 12 months+!!...... that's about it....ugh. Obviously, Ive decided to have the surgery......when I come out, Ill have my arm strapped to my chest for 6 weeks and then the physio starts.....with a bit of luck, Ill be healed enough to go back to work in 5-6 months but meanwhle its gonna drive me nuts......ever tried brushing your teeth with your left hand? I tried the other night and nearly choked myself to death!.....getting dressed, cutting up food.....not to mention the boredom aspect..... jeeesus, I could go on and on....at least Ive still got one free hand to wipe my bum.....

Its with great regret that I have to withdraw from this cruise.... After seeing the surgeon last week he has told me that my recovery time from the shoulder tendon surgery I am having next week will be at least 6 months!! that's 6 months of no work, no driving and NO money I had already booked a double room at Tumut ( the one behind the Oriental Hotel) and the same in Jindy at the Alpine gables..... if any forum member wants these they are more than welcome to take over the booking. Sorry guys....we were really looking forward to this as weve had so much fun in the past on this cruise.....but circumstances are against us this year. Hope all who attend have a safe and enjoyable time Reg and Loretta. one thing I will say though...... For anybody still procrastinating about going.......Do It!!.....one of the best XR6 get-togethers Ive ever been on.......

Great night, great roads, great company.....a good time had by all.... Only downer was Dan hurting his car..... Thanks for organising it Brendan....

yep.....looking forward to this....

Some more details.....like meeting times and places?...... would be good so we can plan guys....

Seriously though.....good on you Ant......its about time after the bunfight you've been through..... :good:

Jeeesus......aint that the truth!!... Ive had heaps of fun just trying to keep 30+ entrants together!....let alone 300!
