Well I am only new to this site and don’t know the CEO that well but I was there and maybe that’s why he was stuck behind that wood trolley, I did notice a small hip flask being removed from the back pocket every 10 or 15 min.confuse

It was great to catch up with HH, Gnome Ranger and their wives at Yarloop.  Hillbilly Pete came but unfortunately his wife Ellice had a headache and couldn't make it.

I think we had a good day at the Steam Workshops and then a picnic lunch and a chat.

I hope all enjoyed the day as much as myself and Irona did.

A great get together today at YARLOOP. We enjoyed meeting Mr & Mrs JRH and one half of the Hillbillies. Lots to see at the Workshops but if you visit make sure its the first Sunday of the month when everything is steamed up...

We are having a get togther at Yarloo steam worksops in WA on Sunday 9th September.  Any one in the area who is intersted will be most welcome.

 

Yarloop is about 130 Kilometres South of Perth between Waroona and Harvey.  The more that can make it the merrier.  We will meet up at the Steam Workshops Car Park  between 10:30 am and 11:00 AM.
