Thanks for that but you can’t thank me if it wasn’t for everyone on here I wouldn’t of even thought of doing or should I say make it all up.
Anyway it’s out in the shops today lets hope we all can make a positive in the history of Tasmania’s 4wding seen.
If they give us any rope what so ever I hope all of you will be right behind me pulling on the end the more people seen the more people will think about it

But im in not way picking on you it’s just if we are going to do this it has to be right so as not to be laughed at and thrown in the bin with the rest of the aggressive letters.
And we will need more than one letter to send in.
It’s always good to have two blanket letters to fill there email boxes up with even more if Everone is able to
hey bushy so far so good
Just got this e-mail concerning the letter I sent.




Dear Mr Booth

I refer to your correspondence of 3 August 2005 to the Minister for Parks and Heritage, Judy Jackson MHA, concerning Southport Lagoon.

Your correspondence will be brought to the Minister's attention at the earliest opportunity.

Yours sincerely






Sally Shepherd
Office of the Minister for Parks and Heritage
GPO Box 825 Hobart TAS 7001
Ph (03) 6233 4180 (reception)
Fax (03) 6233 2671


Maybe everyone should write their own letter and send it off as well. That then wouldn't be spam.

RULES:
Be nice
no swearing
use only facts
tell why you like going in there

Sorry guys but I wont be heading anywhere I went to go out last night and had a large power drain in my car I thought the batteries were flat ??
checked them all was fine so Thought it might be the starter or the solenoid welded together but spent an hour on it to find the glow system was at fault removed the relay from the glow and had full power /?? But now I don’t know what part the drain is coming from checked the relay and is working fine on the meter? So im at a loss. anyway long story that not needed in this post but will be home all week end by the looks of things

Im up and running again thanks to Bruce and dont ask what it was because i will never tell. ( and you wont either Bruce )

We all might have to have a big pub meeting some time soon to discuss the letter and decide if we all want to go in as a group or you’re happy for peter and I to take it in and chat to her about it
Another thing that comes to mind is that if we go as a group we should RING win TV or someone like that and get it on TV? What do you think?
Over 20 or so 4wds turning up on her door in convoy should open one or two eyes but it has to be planed and will have to ring the police to see if we can do it .if we doing it by the book they cant throw anything at as a

We will have to make sure all the vehicles are compliant and roadworthy (well almost) :lol: :lol:
I think we should ring and make an appointment on monday(TOMMOROW) What you think Brendan.
It will probablt take 3 weeks to get in to see her, BUT if we try and make a time to see judy surelly she cant make a decision till she hears all comments. I meen we are after all representing the 4WD community of tasmania :lol: :)
And when we turn up with 500 signatures she's got to listen.
God its hard to type with 12 cans of draught under your belt :roll:

Is it just land owners if so I don't think they are going to be to happy with us 4wd blokes.

But it would be nice to know what it's all about, buy the blokes some beers make some new friends with people that own land down there

Just so all you good guys don't think that TRVA is doing nuthin', we have a presentation next Wednesday night by DPIWE on this issue. It is NOT set in concrete yet and they are open to suggestions at this stage. The TRVA executive will listen to their arguments and formulate a response based on this. All the good stuff you guys are doing out there helps. Don't forget to phone your local Member and give him/her your thoughts! They don't like voters calling them up and giving them heaps--it makes them very nervous! Go get yourselves a copy of the Draft management Plan and study what is being proposed-it will help your arguments.
Happiness is life in low range!
