Sounds like a fantastic run..... chomping at the bit to release my horse. I'll have to join a little canter in the new year. Once my horse lands.

I think you're on the wrong website.

You may be looking for 'Hobbiephotographer.com'

We are car enthusiasts, we own nice cars and we drive them.

Why would we take photographs?

LOL !! Just seen this.....Look most of us know each other here (met in person). Because we are so spread throughout NZ we cant all get to the same meets/events, so we appreciate people sharing pics of their experiences, we are a friendly bunch. As for being on the wrong website?? What criteria do I need to meet?

Kylie, when we've tied enough palm fronds together to make our escape boat we'll sail away from our dusty little backwater and come and meet you up on the 'real' island.

Until then I'll run it by my toothless neanderthalic buddies about us chipping in for a Kodak Brownie to take pics of our horse and carts.....

May take a while........

Hey Ben, not this time as I have a bit on over the next two months, but I will come down for roadie soon. When Mike gets his Sport350 in Dunnos, there will be no doubt he'll have itchy feet and want the two beasties to meet (and cars too tongue out). South Island is a perfectly logical place to meet for serious hoonage and demerit points collecting biggrin

About time we started our annual Xmas thread also.....
