Thursday 19th June.
As the Sky City casino is the major sponsor for the V8's at Hidden Valley there a number of activities taking place on the lawns outside the casino. The major one of these which is of interest to Gail and myself is the appearance of all drivers for autograph signing. This was scheduled for 5:00 to 7:00pm today so we decided to arrive early to secure a parking spot. Because the Thursday night Mindil Beach markets are adjacent to the casino this causes huge parking problems unless you arrive early.
We queued along with other fans to obtain some autographs etc.
Our new great granddaughters' mother Madison is a staunch Holden supporter and a fan of Holden's Craig Lowndes. So I figured I should get Craig to sign for Kelsey. However unknown to me Gail had counteracted by getting a similar "To Kelsey" from Ford's Mark Winterbottom. Some people never learn!
After depositing our posters etc in the car we walked on to the Mindil Beach markets for yet another take-away dinner from one of the large number of food vendors.
A very pleasant afternoon and evening. Oh by the way - the sunset was superb again.
