Re: SA Crew Cruise & Photoshoot
Try hot water and if that doesn't work white spirits if your not confident with a blade. Just be sure to polish off straight after it takes some work but will eventually go

Re: SA Crew Cruise & Photoshoot
Ahhh, thank you I'll give both a shot. Tried a hairdryer and it didn't work, and now have a litre of wax/polish remover to try as well. Won't risk the blade but I've got vodka and a kettle haha.

I'm not sure whether to feel honoured or offended...
You can use it if you want ahaha
Well...the Polish blood warrants straight vodka drinking, think I'm okay there.

Re: SA Crew Cruise & Photoshoot
At least we can give it till mid-afternoon. Doesn't mean it won't come pouring down on us after that, but gives us a little more time anyway. I'd still be keen for a bit of a meetup somewhere undercover if anyone else is.

Re: SA Crew Cruise & Photoshoot
Yea i'm still up for a cruise if it's not too wet, but i'd rule out doing a hill run, or at least a spirited hill run

Ridiculous though, we finally managed to get a good cohort (even Phil!) and we might get thwarted by a little rain.

Re: SA Crew Cruise & Photoshoot
I went there today and it didn't look good. Dryer on the lower areas but go up a bit and the roads flood up a lot,no good for driving...
And then it hailed.

Re: SA Crew Cruise & Photoshoot
Weather has been crap today, I spent the whole day out near Clare working in a farmers shed on his tractor, it was pissing down and cold as all day, I was even breathing mist out of my mouth all day. I was soaking wet and covered in mud.
Now I'm unsure if I should bother with the trip tomorrow, it is supposed to be raining and even colder than today was. I am still keen to meet you all but unsure if it's worth driving all the way down to not even go on a cruise.
I won't have the luxury of waiting till the afternoon to see what the rain Gods bring. I would need to wash my FTO as it is covered in mud/dirt and I might not be able to wash it tomorrow morning and if I do it is just going to get filthy on the wet drive down.
So unsure at the moment, what do you guys think?
We could always set another date soon?
