I went this morning as I have night shift all weekend. I thought it was pretty good, even parted with a few dollars with the Ozpig crew.
Never did understand why they had two shows as the September one was average.
I thought there would've been more watercraft like kayaks etc.

I found 6 furry stubby holders that I use on my beer to protect them when travelling, never had a problem finding beer in the dark. Even though times may have changed, some things you never forget........

It could be a Factory thing. I wanted something which is available on the top two models but not on the base model, factory and local dealer said not possible, I went looking and found a dealer who said No Worries. Utilised factory parts and changed it to suit.

Manta Ray vans can keep it .they should train there sales staff to be more flexible  and at least make some  enquires for the buyer, Any way we have another van in our sights now , and the sales guy and girl were very helpful
