Who on earth closed my thread...yeah this one!!! Who ever it was in future please contact me first before you close an important active thread!!

Weathers clearing up it seems.... Let's hope it hold out. Where's the weather man with the weeks forecast?

Hi everyone!!!

The annual events start in exactly a week!! Yay!! The only thing that's bothering me is all this rain we been having the last 2 weeks it hasn't let up. For those of you who do live in Sydney I'm taking suggestions for an underground place we could have it at in the case of this rain not easing up. Please PM me some possible suggestions so I can call ahead and get the ok first from the venue.

Fingers crossed though we get some sun in the upcoming week. :)

Daryl don't worry bout the little dent I'm sure your taking home a trophy or 2 anyways!!!!

Gosh I'm soooo excited!!!!

Also just a reminder to everyone driving to Sydney to take it easy on the roads as it is double demerits from the end of the week.

And just to tease you all a bit should I show you what my lounge room looks like at present? Should I?????

9 DAYS TO GO !!!!

Can I please remind everyone that there are 3 surprise categories!!! Oh and each of those will have a runner up!!! :P

Oh and there are 3 sponsors choice trophies too!!! Oh and a mods choice award with a runner up too!! But wait..... There's still more :P

Hi All!!

I am pleased to announce that CASTROL AUSTRALIA our forum sponsor is now offficially supporting our Show and Shine and will be donating prizes too!!!

Oh and this wasn't the secret i still have a secret.....all will be revealed at the Show and Shine :D

Sorry guys won't be able to make it tonite ... :(

I have a secret!!!!

Hi everyone!!

Please keep in mind that this will be the last meet until the national meet. So i would like to take the time to fill you all in personally as to what will be happening and it would be good to get some feedback too in case i'm doing something wrong. Also wanted to discuss possible helpers on the day.

So please guys!! try and make this one.

We also need to talk about doing some day meets so we can do a mock run of the national meet cruise. I don't want it to be a long and boring cruise for the interstaters.

Maybe we can go out for a coffee or something after and discuss the meet together ???

The national meet is fast approaching and it feels like i'm forgetting something.

We are definitely up for a night out in the city too!!

I don't drink either so most likely having the 8 seater car will be the designated driver.... LOL!! So Mark can drink.

Any of you out there have a bus they want me to drive LOL!!

CONGRATS!!!!! Mr and Mrs AZZA!!!!

We want pics!!!!

Title edit with the date

This is a long weekend though please take it easy driving there!!

This will be the last monthly meet until june 11 (the mini meet associated with the annual meet)

The normal monthly meets will resume again in june /july. :D

Any questions please send me a PM.

Thanks

For those who have not been to a show and shine/ annual meet before.....there has always been an entry fee to cover the costs of everything put into for the prizes and trophies.

This is a free club and free website. No moderator on this forum is PAID. WE don't have to do anything on this forum.....WE ALL choose to :D

We have 4 kids, and both of us work full time .....do we have much spare time...NO. We do this every year cause we want to. The banners/ trophies/ shirts/ stickers etc... all comes out of OUR pocket.

It only takes 30 posts on our forum to be a regular member and to be entitled to sell stuff too. It's mainly to encourage the members to be more active on the site.

If anyone else has a problem please PM me. Disrespecting me behind my back is childish and uncalled for!!

HI ALL!!!!

Just an update to the show and shine.

Its great to see the interest from outside toyota owners!! Due to this i will be adding a new category to the show and shine for GUESTS. Anyone have an good ideas on what we can call the trophy please post it up.

We are having trouble finding people to sponsors the trophies....so Mark and I will be paying for them. In the fairness of this being a free club/site. We will be charging the following entry fee's (TO ENTER YOUR CARS) to cover the cost of the trophies.

SILVER MEMBERS $2.50

REGULAR TOCAU MEMBERS $5.00

GUESTS $10.00

By regular member's I am referring to the status on you personal profile. 'NEWBIES' will be considered guests.

All entrants will receive a showbag of goodies, an entrant number and voting cards.

There are a total of 20 trophies up for grabs on the day :D

This information will be pasted onto post #1

Add on around 10 more cars from Sydney.

Slowly getting names on another forum

If u don't mind me asking which forum are u inviting ? As none of the orginisers were informed about this .....

My phone doesn't like the new layout as yet can't wait till I turn the mac on and see it in full!!!
