Looking like a good start to get the Focus and Fiesta QLD Club that you're getting started, FRA. I've added your own section onto the http://www.eurofordclub.com site so feel free to use it as you please.

Looks like some hot cars attending, all the best guys. Take lots of photos!

You can add my calandar to your calandaring app if you like. It should have an SMS reminder for the 15th 30mins before. I don't know if that's just a setting for my calandar that doesn't share when I share the calandar event deets or if it in fact does.

If that ends up being at 11:30pm on Friday night and it wakes you up, I hereby disclaim responsibility for the beep noise! :-)

If you use gCal you can set an sms reminder if youre on Voda or Optus as your carrier.

Add me here, if you need the .cal format file I can fix you up with that...

Rob I got you a little present, www.focusfiestaclub.org.au will be online once AUNIC approve (or not if they deny it eek) the speil I have to give when I went to register it as a Club domain.

If you want it can have something like http://qld.focusfiestaclub.org.au as the page to buy little club stickers and keychains for charity stuff through an e-commerce module.

Anyway I'll talk to you soon enough on messenger about it all...

I have ordered the stickers to be made up.
The 2 F's and QLD and C in club are 1" or 25mm or 2.5cm and the rest of the letters are 12mm and the weblink is 20mm for each letter, I've done my best to make the stickers as small as I can.

My g/f is coming along, real jarod g/f as well. I'm pretty sure a few other members will bring their g/f - wife and kids along.
I'll book the BBQ area. By the time everyone gets there and talk to everyone and looks at all the cars, it'll be time for something eat.
