SunnyJim started a thread back in 2015 by kindly sending a book out into the KombiClub world.
If anyone knows where it is now that would be great to get it back mobile.
Here's the thread...
Why?
Because this is KombiClub life!

Sunnyjim’s copy visited many Kombi household’s and the last recipient was a member in the ACT. Sadly, this ACT member passed away, and when I visited, his wife had no clues about the whereabouts of the book.   Sad

Sunnyboy, then donated another copy, to continue the journey to more Kombi households.

So the current whereabouts of the second copy now, would be great, if anyone knows…  Wink

I was lucky enough to have read and forwarded this book….it’s a great read and I really hope we can find out where it is parked so it can continue its journey through the community….

UK Skippy and Maxa1967 are the last known contacts back in August 2020 both in Queensland if anyone knows them.
I'd read it again if it gets back around.

Wow, a real blast from the past. I was the second person to pass this on. I hope it can be tracked down and it’s journey continues  Smile

usually when someone says " Remember when you .. ....... "  I cringe Thinking geez I can't remember What I did. I must have had too much Red wine or Bundy.
However in this instance I can remember it and am happy to be reminded of its humble beginnings.
I hope it keeps navigating Oz, happy for it to say kia Ora as well one day.
