The presentation for the John Giddens Memorial Trophy (for those doing the
Australian section only) was held last night.
Pat Cole was the winner and Trevor Stilling made it to 2nd position with a good drive on the last day.
Gary Williamson might have held him off, but having been told the
previous day that there would be two sections, not four, he elected not to bother
with new tyres. A bit unlucky but…
The plan to enjoy a sleep in this morning didn’t work all
that well, both Mark and I woke up around 5:45 am.
Caught up with some friends for lunch (Ally and Dave
Crabtree ex-Newcastle, as well as former colleague Danny Willmott) at a very nice restaurant.
Had half a bottle of Chardonnay with lunch
and I might get that extra bit of sleep now.
Bus goes to the airport at 8:30 PM tonight.
