correct

plus i was at times the only person manning the table and noone liked the suggestive sell technique, however i was very gratefull to Damo and Sam and Andrew for there help, would of just liked more even though there was no sales

i think maybe people don't associate repco with BBQ's either and the weather

hahahaha u were pushing those sausages like a dealer outside a high school.

If i find time to get the power steering working, i'll come along in the 32

So has anyone officially put their hand up for BBQ duties? I suck at handling money, but I don't mind helping on the BBQ itself, but have NFI where to get the club banner, etc.

Steve - do you still have the meat frozen from last time?

I am pretty sure I have the SAU banner in my bag of tricks Nigel .... let me know if you want to come get it from me (I am in Northgate FYI). Or I can try get it to someone in the display.

Yeah for the last bbq SAU:SA spent nearly $200 on gear and barely recouped a quarter of that. I reckon you should just go to the butcher up the road and buy $40 of cheap-ass sausages, then with the other $10 get a couple of loaves of bread and some sauce.

Oh yeah of course you do ;)

... and don't worry about the club - we over-catered (as always - better too much than not enough) and we still have plenty of meat left in the freezer for future events. Drinks too for that matter (unless Steve has drunk them all already ;) )

It really is very scary when catering for a bbq all the hidden costs involved. Until you do it, you wouldn't believe it. Of course you can do it for relatively cheap on the bones of your ass, but Steve likes to get the nice quality snags, good quality bread (and lots of it), decent amount of condiments, onions, different varieties of drinks, and all the trimmings, so it doesn't take long for the costs to blow out.

try $208 for last BBQ, having done a cub scout bbq at bunnings next door iv'e seen how a proper club does a bbq granted they have more traffic through there doors and they had a sausage warmer on the bbq 2

i bought enough snags for 140 people to eat aprox. and im guessing we may have sold 60-70 plus the staff ate free i thought was a nice touch and guaranteed we got called back

and no they were'nt gourmet snags they were the cheap ones ;) bread was cheap no printing on the bags ;)

bbq'ed lobster and caviar at mitchs joint tonite ya'll

re sausages, i never buy from a supermarket - for the price u pay theyre rather shit - go to a wholesaler like austral and get the higher quality sausages for the same price the supermarket sells the shitty ones for

wasnt too hard to cater for the lads at loxton last year but obviously that was for under 20 people as opposed to 50-100 that you'd expect at a sausage sizzle.. can't win unless u do what steve's done and freeze the leftovers

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
