Blue Mountains Get Together Mark II....early May....all welcome

The Bowling Club has been disused for some years.

Tomorrow's number stands at 40 (Woodnut had to pull out with a crook back).

Beautiful weather again today. The forecast temp was 19, windy, partly cloudy. The reality was 21, a little bit of cirrus cloud (the really high wispy stuff) which was gone by about 9am, and a little bit of wind that was gone by about 11am. Right now the Eucalypts on top of the ridge (my wind marker) are completely still.

Looking at the synoptic chart, I'm deeply suspicious that the forecast can be correct. Can't see how it can be sunny and 13 with only light SE winds - just doesn't stack up. It can be sunny and 13 if there's wind chill factor from strong southern winds. The wind map shows that they drop off to bugger all in the middle of the day anyway.

It wouldn't surprise me if it's a repeat of today, perhaps a bit cooler.

Btw, important to note that the BOM forecast is unlikely to be updated over the weekend....there's nobody there.

That leaves you with info from Johnny On The Spot. :D

Ah Bret the magic of modern day life all it takes is look out the window/door at my place and see the rain clouds over the mountains and catchment area ATM. Hope its all blown away overnight.

Katoomba weather - local weather forecast



Darn I wish I had had more time this week could have brought the bank with me all these tools and goodies for sale.


As for Wood Nut serves him right he scored a ute full of wood yesterday so I am told and now he keeping it all to himself.

:doh: Just sent Dangerman Dave a PM I couldn't see him on the list I know less than 24hrs notice

Except for today, those Weatherzone temps are bollocks.

Hope the fire lighters are at the ready

The winter chill is here on the Lower Blue Mountains.... came over cold about 4-430pm with a breeze; had a jacket on since......
Bring your jackets tomorrow Gents & Ladies all.......

Car is loaded, BM should be here in a minute. And I keep thinking of things I should have put in yesterday :doh:

See ya soon. I'm there now. Just been for a walk outside and it is rather pleasant. So long as there is no wind it will be a nice day if it stays like this.

Havering coffee Pat will be here soon after he has a play in the workshop we will be on our way...

See ya wham ya get here. Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Just finished loading Paul's ute. Brett be sure to have gloves ready as all timber is FOT. Unloading is your responsibility. :D

Hi to all.

Sorry I couldn't make it , but have spoken to Brett and Tony. Hope you have a fantastic day.

Was looking forward to meeting Bushmiller - his father-in-law used to have a property in Clarence Town and I knew him quite well.

Yes Ray, I did buy a couple of SMALL pieces:U:U:U:U:U of timber on Friday. Although it filled the ute (or maybe a bit higher than that, you have to make allowance for all the lost space due to the wheel arches!!! If only I'd left before Dorno arrived, no-one would have known.

Congrats for getting such a great turnout Brett, and I am looking forward to the next Blue Mts GTG. I really appreciated our chat the other night, and make sure nobody walks any dust into that immaculate workshop. Almost a white glove area. You could probably wear white socks as well.

Cheers,
Paul
