UPCOMING WEEKEND
Prizes - All prizes are spot prizes and there is some good booty to be dished out. All those who attended last year will know what I mean.
Entry Fees - Cash. Yep like ya grandparents bring cash. SKIMONZ has not yet invested in the portable EFTPOS machine.
Conditions - Maybe a bit of red and black bias but what a season. The team at Ohau have talked up conditions (with good reason) so I think we can look forward to a great event.
Weather - Pray
See you all Saturday.
