Hey Guys,
Nick, I won’t be able to ride any time soon but very willing to help out, how about you post an address that I can send some ‘folding’ upto, you can then deposit into the fast fill on my behalf.
Do you guys do any bench racing with out rides? I’m based in Sydney south but happy to travel for a get together.
Maybe a local BBQ for the OBT crew with a donation might be an idea?
I know we are close to Christmas and all but….See you all soon
Cheers

Being November we could help out Hatto’s quest for the mo and donate the Coffs takings to the Movember Charity.Nick
Thanks Nick and all OLD BUllS for deciding to support Movember with this idea, way to go admin.

November 21, 2010 at 9:22 pm #191084I’m not coming to play at coffs but figure I would bow to the beer and bundy gods and devour a few if I was there, so –
Calculations – Time line 6pm-1am = 7 hrs on the sauce.1 beer every 20mins(average)for the 3 hours, with a bundy(20mins) after every 3 beers
1 beer every 40 mins(average) there after with a bundy after every 2 beers
1 bundy nightcap
= 19.5 drinks rounded up to 20 drinks(I’m not going to tip half out am I) :laugh: :laugh:
= 20 drinks fridy, 20 drinks Satdy – 40 drinks
So 40 drinks @ $1.00 = $40.00
Fines10 @ $1.00 = $10.00
That brings me to a fifty for the Fast Fill Charity Tin.
Cheers Hatto
November 21, 2010 at 9:54 pm #191085Boony….a Middy is the next size up from the 7″s that you normally drink from with your shandys
….one day you may graduate to schooners…baby steps first though mate
Bol :woohoo:
November 22, 2010 at 12:59 am #191086Yesterday when I was cutting the money slot in the Charity Fast Fill I realised I had failed to mention that the $90 fast fill Tuff Jug was donated by Sutto’s

November 22, 2010 at 4:25 am #191087Really sorry to hear about Mal.
He has always helped me out at Suttos with tech info, prices or just a chat.
I wish him all the best with his battle.Fast Fill is a great idea!
No so sure about the gold coin for dropping your bike :unsure:
I don’t think i can carry that much change in the bum bag :laugh:Rebore

November 28, 2010 at 10:35 am #191088Excellent Work guys (I would have laughed at the Boonit bailing strangers up at the pub for their hard earned) :laugh:
This charity thing has been talked about for a while & it is sometimes hard to get it off the ground. But now the ball is well & truly rolling
It has hit home the past few days here with the news that my wife`s mum has a Brain Tumour the size of a Kiwi Fruit!!! This came out if the blue with really no warning till she collapsed last Tuesday with a suspected stroke :unsure: Surgery is tomorrow to remove the tumour and then it can be tested to determine the next course of treatment.
You just never know when your number will come up, so lets all be vigilant with our heathchecks an a regular basisCheers for Now & once again, WELL DONE BULLS
November 28, 2010 at 9:05 pm #191089Hi All
So here I was, just finishing my last bundy on sat night and my phone rings. There is a p@#$d bloke on the other end talking swarhealy nonsense but could understand a couple things and that the fast fill jug has been done and that you guys have raised $1041. What a fantastic effort. I then get put onto the king who isn’t quite as bad and he fills me in with some details.
I would like to take this opportunity to say thankyou to each and everyone of you who have donated. What a top effort.
When a group of people come together to help a charity, it’s fantastic and to do it when times aren’t the best is even more satisfying. Movember- well that is the gimmick, an if I have to go through some discomfort, embarrassment, humiliation and celibacy for the cause, than I will take one for the team.Go the OLD BULL FAST FILL JUG
Hatto
PS- Boony, I have heard a rumour about you going around the pub asking for donations- If thats the case, you da man. Your heart is as big as Phar laps, and no matter what they say about you, I don’t believe them :laugh: :laugh:
That is something that I would do-we need to catch up.cheers
