I have my new roster now and I'm working it of course..

by checkmate Fri 26 Dec 2014, 11:21 pm

I'm working too but I've taken leave and am aiming to be there just got to sort another issue out first.

by Deaf as Sat 27 Dec 2014, 7:03 am

Just the one truck category and no ladies section? After checking out my daughters marking sheet from the Wagga show, I'm going to have to be selective where I put my models ( or is it her models?). Now I know how her brother feels! Laughing

by dv8v8 Sat 27 Dec 2014, 12:40 pm

they used to have a ladies section but the last time it only got 2 entries

by Nighthoon Sun 28 Dec 2014, 12:01 am

first year in 4 years i wont be able to attend Sad

hope its a huge success though!!!

by zenrat Thu 01 Jan 2015, 8:04 pm

It's not a strength event (well, apart from building semis) so why should ladies get their own class?
I'd be offended if I was a girl.

by checkmate Thu 01 Jan 2015, 9:01 pm

Drop the warhammer catagory and attract less nerds dressed in black with questionable hygiene and slap a ladies section in Wink

the warhammer can go in figures or other model. Wink

Behave checky !

by Deaf as Fri 02 Jan 2015, 2:37 pm

It's one of those things that is tough to manage, Ronnie put her truck in the opens at Wagga and it caused one of the other entrants to squeal, said she had no right to be in that category and the committee should have withdrawn her entry from the opens. Yes, she did beat him and no, it wasn't her brother (or me!) Takes the shine off it a bit for her.

by scummy Fri 02 Jan 2015, 6:31 pm

Wasnt me either .

by mutley Sat 03 Jan 2015, 11:13 am

I think the "bloke " who had a sook about your daughter should of had his entry withdrawn for being such a little bitch. she has every right to enter any catagorie she likes, and if there was no ladies section, she'd have to go in that section anyway. point the sook out this year Tim and the mafia will make him an offer he can't refuse.

by checkmate Sat 03 Jan 2015, 5:29 pm

It was always mentioned that the ladies could enter the ladies section or in any other section, there would be no discrimination..............

Who was this sook in question? There's always one in every crowd.

by scummy Sat 03 Jan 2015, 6:02 pm

Well it doesnt suprise me that it happened at wagga .

by checkmate Sat 03 Jan 2015, 6:19 pm

He's obviously not a regular.

by Deaf as Sun 04 Jan 2015, 4:14 pm

Yep, don't see him round like you used to but not going to mention names here. Just have to work around the dopes.

by scummy Sun 04 Jan 2015, 8:28 pm

Tell me of this pothole .

by checkmate Sun 04 Jan 2015, 11:42 pm

You better message me his name Tim, I'm keen to know who it is.

by Deaf as Mon 05 Jan 2015, 6:56 pm

Rob, PM sent.

by checkmate Mon 05 Jan 2015, 11:41 pm

Cheers Tim. Smile

I'm still going to try and get to this but I reckon my chances have gone from 100% when I spoke to Shoey about it to honestly about 5% now.

I'll try to get some stuff up there for it.

by Shoey Thu 15 Jan 2015, 2:07 am
