    See you at Ekey.

    We'll meet you at your place on the way through Joe.

    I'm starting to look forward to this. Had a very average week at work, so need a fix of back road blasting (no skids though).

    ladies.

    a little bad news.
    the pirinoa store opens at 9am, thats the good bit..
    there is fuel there, thats another good bit.

    but the fuel is around 4-5c up on market prices,thats the bad bit.
    reason, its a private owned fuel station, and costs them to keep the fuel there, which i under stand, being a small country village.

    so if you chaps want we will have to go via martinbrough, to save you chaps a few cents on fuel.

    your thoughts please.

    I'm ok with it, I usually spend about $10-12 for a fuel tank so ... won't make much difference ..

    what happend was, there was a mobil station there once a pon a time.
    and the big men closed it, so the store replaced the underground tank, and run it them selfs nowdays....

    50c more for a tank full won't break the bank for me. Might make a difference if you were filling your super tanker from empty though.

    even though I wont need to fill up with gas I think its very important that the others save a few cents a liter and fill up at Martinborough.

    I'll wait for them at Toppys

    So utterly transparent mate!

    (I think I should join you though, just to make sure you behave yourself of course! )
