Ian Pearson………………………………………………….4152 7563 Bill Martin Mob………………………………………………………..0400 471 492 (Contact only through BVVC Secretary) [email protected] This year has surely flown, and as a club, we have been extremely busy. You only have to read the club chit chat to see what we have been doing during the last few months. There have been many and varied runs organised, and the coming months will be no different. Please read the events calendar and join with us in having some fun. We have been invited to take part in some activities associated with the National Veteran Vehicle Rally. You will find all the details on page 13, as well as in the events calendar on page 22. Our club Christmas party will be upon us before we know it. Early in December, and held at the Melbourne Ho- tel, it should come in before many other parties and promises to be bigger and better this year. Be sure to get your name on the list early, along with your payment. See all the details on page 23. Jenny SEPTEMBER 2019 Page 3 Within days, we will be greeting the participants in the 2019 Veteran Vehicle Rally. This is an excellent opportunity to showcase our club’s skills in assisting in such an event. These events are rarely held outside capital cities and with 156 entrants to date, the people of Bundaberg are in for a once in a lifetime treat. We are not likely to see this many pre-1919 cars and motorcycles again in our life- times. Our club has been invited to attend some of the events in this rally, so please try to take part in the displays. We won’t be mixing among the veteran cars but will be displaying in designated areas close by. Our club Christmas function this year is to be held at the Mebourne Hotel. It is my understanding that, to secure a fully private room, we need 100 people, so even if you have not been able to participate in other events through the year, mark this one down. We would love to see you and there is no better time of year to touch base again than at Christmas time. Happy Motoring Ian Jefferyes President WELCOME TO NEW MEMBERS At a recent Executive Meeting, it was decided to in- crease joining fee and membership fees of the club. Peter & Valerie Hosking Since the last increase in fees two years ago, fixed run- 1926 Dodge Tourer RD CR QV1177 ning costs have increased on average by 6% per year. To cover these costs it was unanimously decided by the executive to increase fees for the year 1 November 2019 to 31 October 2020. The new fees applicable will be as follows. 12 MONTH MEMBERSHIP FEE; (1ST NOVEMBER TO 31ST OCTOBER) $55.00 JOINING FEE: $75.00 HALF YEARLY MEMBERSHIP FOR NEW MEMBERS ONLY, WILL BE AS FOLLOWS: JOINING FEE: $75.00, 6 MONTH MEMBERSHIP 1ST MAY TO 31ST OCTOBER: $27.50. MEMBERSHIP FEES ARE DUE BY 31 OCTOBER 2019 John Sweeney Treasurer Page 4 BUNDABERG VINTAGE VEHICLE CLUB INC. BVVC Inc. Saturday, 15 June 2019 About 30 cars left the clubhouse at 1.30 pm and headed to Brindley’s passionfruit farm. It was an easy drive to the farm, which is on Quinn’s Road, just off Rosedale Road. PASSIONFRUIT FARM However, a couple of members made hard work of the tour, turning firstly into Moorlands Road before having to TOUR double back to the highway and eventually arriving at the designated spot. We assembled at the entrance and were greeted by Ann and Brian, who took us on a guided tour through the paddocks of 24,000 passionfruit vines. The packing shed was our next stop, where we were shown cleaning, sorting and packing of the fruit. There are two types of fruit grown, purple and panama passionfruit, which are sent to the Sydney and Melbourne markets. The reject fruit is sent to a factory on the Sunshine coast where it is made into passionfruit juice. Brian and his son Ross, who is the owner of the farm, told us more about the growing of passionfruit, which takes a lot of hard work, a lot of patience and lot of resilience. The harvesting and packing of the fruit which is carried out by local backpackers. “Passionfruit is particularly hard to grow – every year is different, every year the weather changes. Too much rain is problematic. In 2011 and 2013, we had floods, which resulted in a lot of vine deaths, which in turn reduced the yield and cash flow, which proved to have a severe flow on effect because upkeep of the farm requires investment to ensure it is properly maintained to produce the quality expected by the market. The vines are very temperamental. If you don’t look after them properly, you just don’t get good fruit. So, looking after them, applying the right amount fertilisers at the right timing is crucial.” Quote Ross This was all followed by afternoon tea in the shade of the trees near the farm house, with lots of laughter and chatter as usual. Ann surprised us with some passionfruit cream slice which was very yummy, and some members went home with a lovely bag of passionfruit. What a treat! Photographers, Ann and Maree had a bird’s eye view from the top of the forklift driven by Brian. A big thank you to Ross, Ann and Brian for a great afternoon, which, one can only say was enjoyed by all. Kev and Glenda Linder- berg SEPTEMBER 2019 Page 5 Sunday, 22 June 2019 We could relate to the butter making, as Ian and I both recall PIONEER DAY HOSTED BY our mothers churn- BROOWEENA HISTORICAL ing, patting and mark- VILLAGE & MUSEUM ing butter.

Ian and Jenny A few starters braved the cold morning for a 7.00 am start to drive to Brooweena for the Pioneer Day hosted by the Historical Village and Museum. We headed out through Biggenden and arrived in good time for morn- ing tea. We were pleasantly surprised to find our friends from the Fraser Coast Club parked nearby, so we were soon Ian and Cherie catch up with Peter and Jocelyn Gardiner able to catch up with some local gos’. The MG club was also in attendance. An extensive array of memorabilia, equipment, musical instruments and aboriginal rock carvings, is on display in 12 heritage buildings. The complex includes a black- smith's shop, a butch- er shop, wash house, original 1915 Council Office and an authen- tic rustic barn with a collection of bullock and horse drawn vehi- cles. There were working demonstrations of times gone by, vintage cars, market stalls, as well as plenty to eat and drink. Page 6 BUNDABERG VINTAGE VEHICLE CLUB INC.

It is a key tool in surveying and engineering work, particularly on inaccessible ground. A modern theodolite consists of a movable telescope mounted within two perpendicular axes—the horizontal or turn-on axis and the vertical axis. When the telescope is pointed at a desired object, the angle of each of these axes can be measured with great precision, typically on the scale of arc seconds. Fig.1 Theodolites 1.2 Total Stations A total station is an electronic/optical instrument used in modern surveying. The total station is an electronic theodolite (transit) integrated with an electronic distance meter (EDM) to read distances from the instrument to a particular point where an assistant staff holds reflector.
