Time is just flying past, it seems only like yesterday when we all met at the pub in Hamelspringe.
I have fond memorys of that day, although some details are missing, might have had one drink to many. I hope the turn up is as good as last time and it would be great to get some photos later, if someone could post them.

| Richard Glover, Graham our winning bidder, Jan Kingston from RFWCHS and Ken Done with the $5000 tea towel |
702 Drive raised $5000 for the Royal far West Children's Home by making a unique tea towel at the Royal Easter Show.
Last year we created a jam sandwich from scratch, but this year, we sought a different challenge!
During their 3 hour program the Drive team, with the assistance of many others, created the cotton tea towel from the raw materials.
Cotton especially trucked in from Narrabri was plucked from the bushes to the tune of deep south rhythms, the cotton was ginned on site, spun into a thread which was then woven into a tea towel.
Finally, the towel was hemmed, then decorated by one of Australia's most prominent artists, Ken Done.
The one-of-a-kind tea towel was then auctioned off reaching an amazing $5000 dollars - all the money will go to the RFWCH.
What an effort by the Drive team, and from all the supporters, suppliers, workers, bidders, experts and the live audience, and what a great result for this deserving charity!
