Andrew, Dean and myself went and checked it out on Friday. Like the old RACV club you can eat during the meeting and the food is reasonably priced, $15.00 for a monster burger and chips so you won’t be hungry, also they brew their own beer for those connoisseurs among us. Don’t forget the June meeting is at the Studley Park BoatHouse. Coming up is President’s Report the cruise to Dayelsford, if you are still Michael Cronin, VWCV President to decide on whether to come I can tell you it has one of the best Sunday markets in Victoria. The market is at the Finally we have found a new home for railway station and has good parking our general meetings and this time it’s not a false alarm. From July the General with lots of treasures, trash and fresh produce, this will be the first stop for Meetings will be held on the fourth those interested and while there you Tuesday of the month, at Bells Hotel, can also take a train ride to Bullarto, the 157 Moray St, South Melbourne. The Hotel caters for a lot of car club meeting round trip takes about an hour. If the and Paul the manager was very helpful. weather is good bring a picnic lunch
or there are a lot of cafes for all those Latte lovers, although parking is scares in the main street. At the market I met the owner of a very unusual Kombi, it is done up like a Gypsy Caravan, literally even down to the wood burning stove and herbs growing on the roof, if the owner brought it to the DOTVW, Surf Bus would be given a run for its money, you have to believe it to see it. I don’t normally do For Sale Ads here but being a soft touch for a hard luck story I would like to help this fellow VW enthusiast. The owner has a 74 Kombi Camper which she needs to sell to keep her going. So have a look at her page at www.myspace.com/ok_gypsy the link to the Ad is a bit hard to find but if all is true it could be a good buy for someone.
