Just a slight taster of some of the off road fun the ANZ members and friends had this weekend in the Snowy Mountains. 2 days off road driving, including some water work, mountain trails (paths) and generally a great social event. It was great to meet up with 640 and wife, 2nd Rower and his mother who had travelled from the UK, not claiming for our trip mind you, Working dog and his hard working wife, Ivery and wife and last but not least, Grant from Snowy Holidays and his wife who not only helped organise with Working dog, but is also a Sport owner and had a chance to see it at its best..
Sounds very tasty 
of course it could only be a RR Sport TDv8 
Of course it was not only about the locals.. Working Dogs across, 2nd rower about 2 go and we are close behind 
This is then followed by Ivery and Grant from Snowy Holidays, who is waiting on the far bank
Excellent weekend had by all, hopefully we will get some more pictures on here from the rest of the ANZ members in the next few days :thumbsup: Admin note: this post has had its images recovered from a money grabbing photo hosting site and reinstated  Another Pommie Bar Steward down under

"Snowy holidays" you say? You might want to sue them under the trades descriptions act! |
