I hope to get over Your way in a year or so for a Holiday... My Wife has been over but Not Me... plus I want to drive My Beetle over there....
I'm sure there are other Taswegians on this Forum.... I know I'm the only Scone person....

Currently the only ones that I know of are yourself, garybugger, countrybuggykid, 2kombis, a guy in Swansea(sorry forgot your name), Damian(forgot his handle)in Launceston, and me. Got the state covered but sparsely, need more. volma1

I live in Swansea. Swansea is on the central east coast of Tasmania. I run Duncombe Emu Farm. I produce skin care products, made with Emu oil as a major ingredient. I also have a passion for Beetles, models 1960-1970.

Does Tasmanians now living in Qld count. Born in Launceston and grew up in Devonport.:)


volma1 - July 23rd, 2003 at 11:00 PM

They probably count, but I think Kevin has other ideas, maybe a gathering of local forum members, I don't know but I'll keep posted. volma1

I went to Tassie in 94 - had a great two week trip.

Mark....I am jealous of you man....anyone who lives near the Freycinet!:thumb

Actually anyone who lives in Tassie :thumb:thumb It is just a great place. I wonder how many people holiday there, and return back to live?

Craig Torrens - July 24th, 2003 at 11:07 PM

Well I spent 2 weeks in Tasmania last year checking the roads out for Targa. Very nice, and the roads are calling for big speeds, the Fairmont had many a time on the speed limiter:D:D

Coming back to Sydney home prices I'm amazed more people don't live there!


62deluxe - July 25th, 2003 at 10:08 AM

I'll have to get back to you on the -1 posts sikdub. I have no idea!! Maybe someone stole them and now I'm in posts debt. Bit like my visa really! Maybe this will make it zero.:o

Reggi who?
No really, handy around the kitchen, fair dinkum sheila.volma


62deluxe - July 31st, 2003 at 03:54 PM

Isn't everyone sick of @#%$*# Reggie. It's not like she or any of the others did anything worthwhile except laze around and do bugger all. Hey, sounds like me, only without the $250 000 !! Who said she was stupid, not a bad hourly rate?
How many of you out there are coming to Tassie in Nov.? Never know you might bump into Reggie!!!:bounce:bounce


volma1 - July 31st, 2003 at 10:20 PM

Buger Gary - August 5th, 2003 at 11:15 PM

62deluxe - August 6th, 2003 at 12:01 AM

You're right volma that's pretty poor. Although I haven't seen it either!! You wouldn't have any more room anyway!

71super - August 9th, 2003 at 09:45 PM

Hi,
I'm new to the forum.
I own a '71 Super Beetle that I am trying to get cleaned up before I get my license in December.

I'm proud to be Tasmanian!

It all started when I found the passenger side carpet soaked after some rain.
I ripped up the carpet, then the tarboards.
I kept on learning heaps and getting more and more intrigued.
Before I knew it I was doing a body-off resto.

The body is back on now, so I'm using all my spare time to get it finished by December.
I'll try to attach a progress photo.

Talk to you all later.
Stephen
