Yes! Sounds great.
Is a night-time cruise your preference? Or do we organise another "Sunday breakfast special"?

either one is fine, dun really care...maybe we can start aranging some details and maybe we can all meet up at the same spot, same time..
just a quick reference, to get the ball start rolling..
where are you situated? south or north of the river, as that will play an important role in deciding where the meet is going to be at... |

I'm south of the river. On several previous occasions, we've met up at Fast Eddy's Freo on a Sunday morning, had some breakfast and a chinwag, before heading off for a drive somewhere.
Having said that, some people don't mix well with Sunday mornings if they've had a big Saturday night!!
An alternative could be meeting up somewhere central, like South Perth foreshore, Barrack St Jetty, Langley Park, etc. Then heading North-East. Some great roads out past Pearce Air Base...

Hi Tommy.
Can't do Sunday, unfortunately. I've got a motorkhana practice day in the morning, and the afternoon will be spent trying to keep a 2-year-old from breaking too much stuff around the house!
But what about arranging an FTO post-Christmas breakfast at Fast Eddy's Freo on say Tuesday December 28th? It's 10 days away, and that day is the last holiday in the 4-day weekend.
Say, 8am? Grab some nosh, kick the tyres and go for a drive?
If that's an okay idea, I'll post it up as an event and see how we go in attracting people. The 2004 FTO Post-Christmas Chillout Cruise!

I'll give Leigh and Pete a ring tomorrow. See if we can get two more.
The 28/12 one might be better politically... seeing as 9/1 is our 12th wedding anniversary!!! And I'm not sure a cruise is the best pressie for Karen!

I can't do Dec 30th.
Let's go for January 9th, Sunday morning cruise then!
I'll send an email to everyone tonight or tomorrow, post it up in the 'Events' section, etc. etc.
Thanks very much for the input!!

Your 'o' key is broken.
Sunday was good. Pancakes and fried stuff for breakfast, then a good length drive out to a Serpentine picnic area. Just three FTOs... and my wife's Magna AWD, hehe.
Plus a mate of mine dropped in at Fast Eddies and picked my brains, as he's thinking of buying an FTO himself. I must be a bad influence!!
