Day 6 : Monday 8th May- Tour around Warwick and surrounds.
Awoke to sunshine although just a little chilly. After a leisurely breakfast, we left the Motel at a very civilised 9.30 am and made our
way to Lucas Park where it had been organised for us to display the cars to the
people of Warwick for a couple of hours. This included a visit from the local
Councillors and full Mayoral welcome - we did fell somewhat special!!.

We were also welcomed and entertained by the Local Town
Crier who took us on a short walking tour of the inner city precinct.

The group starts to move off after our big formal Welcome. Note the weather started to cloud over after such a beautiful start to the day! |
After a quick bite of lunch Maritta and Noeline decided to go shopping whilst Alan
and Dale went to the local history museum which had opened especially for the
group.

We all met back at the hotel where the obligatory running repairs, fettling and minor adjustment commenced. Also noted a couple of quiet spruce ups taking place and the odd polish bottle noted but these disappeared quickly.
