Today we were lucky enough to have Photographer Kevin Yiu shoot Suga’s R32 Golf at a secret location (thanks to pro photographer Chris Brasher for sharing his secret location).

It was an early start and a long shoot but we’re sure the results will be worth it! I snapped these behind the scenes shots to share (processed shots from Kevin to come).

On the way home we dropped into VW Village in Kensington. I used to live in Kenso as a kid and these guys have been operating here for over 20 years. We hit George (the owner) up for sponsorship of Christina’s new VW Golf forum and after a bit of a chat he was more than happy to give it a go and give us a helping hand.

SUGA got a detail job today in preparation for a photoshoot this weekend. Dave from Reflect Effect spent 5hours straight on cleaning her car (I would have given up 30 minutes in!). The results are insane. More here.

Shallot Pancakes, always an awesome starter. They smell so good and get your taste buds going.

Instead of normal duck for peking duck we often order the deep friend duck which is fried so dry that you can eat all the bones.

His shredded beef is hands down the best shredded beef in Sydney. It’s super crispy! His “San Tung chicken” is what he’s famous for though and I couldn’t get a pic of that as it was devoured before I got the chance!

His handmade noodles are awesome too.

Still my fave Chinese Restaurant in Sydney (yes you must go there). My family has been following this guy around Sydney since I was a little kid. Peter, the owner still comes out to rub my beard for good luck every time I visit.

I founded INfront (an Australian design community) in 1999 and we ran a project called “Visual Response” (created by Domenico Bartolo) for many years. We basically gave people an inspirational word and they took that word and created an artwork from it. The main challenge was that they had to create it without the use of photographs or scans (ie: They had to just use Illustrator or Photoshop).

For many years VR stopped running until today and what’s more we’ve now decided to allow photography and scans!

I know many of you reading this are creative (who isn’t?!) and I hope you guys consider submitting an entry to the 1st VR on the new INfront site. It’s free to enter and there are some awesome prizes up for grabs too (more on this soon!).

The theme for this VR is “2010” and you can interpret that in any way you see fit. More details on INfront:

One of the younger VWGolf forum members Devin came around tonight to collect a sticker and he whacked his one straight on his VR6, here are a few pics I rattled off!

What the?! Attention Whore!

Christina cleaned the glass with some glass cleaner and paper towel and Devin just whacked it on true MK3 pimp stylez yo! :cool:

Ah sunset. I love this light :)

Lappy got done too!

So today Christina and headed over to Barloworld to see Peter (salesman) about a possible trade in on the Skyline AND to test drive the MKVI GTI. I got to drive both the manual and the DSG. I’ve posted up the whole review here.

New photos of the 1st VWGolf.net.au meet from the 028 crew are now online here.
