Howdy

Not sure if anyone's given much thought to it, but at the very least, would love to catch up with everyone for a Christmas drink to say thanks for a great year and offer well wishes.

Appreciating it's a busy time of year for us all and time is short, is anyone/everyone up for a more casual afternoon get together in the coming weeks?

If enough interest, I'll throw up a poll to record names and numbers of people etc.

Happy to have it here at my joint again, but more than happy to do it elsewhere if someone would like to offer the welcome mat to us all.

I for one am in - 2 adults, 4 kids.

Haha-ha Todd :clapping:







Great idea Scotty , don't think we have any big plans , other than going to straddie for chrismas day this year.

Think you can count us in :wink:


Nothing wrong with your place, but just wonder if we should/could, do a casual night at somewhere close, like Bribie or Scenic rim etc, so everyone can camp (in other words, not have to drive home afterward :trink13:)

Great plan .. somewhere cheap, close, and just overnight (so as to not get in the way of other plans) would be awesome - no driving as such, just show up, setup, drink an eat up, and then off again the following day ...

Everyone's thoughts?? Even a place that does cabins (on the cheap) like this weekend (but closer) so people don't have to setup tents etc for just one night ....

After consulting the "boss" and looking at the calander, i looks like im already commited to something every weekend from now untill xmas, so it looks like, unless your comming over to straddie on chrismas day, we best have a drink this weekend at Lake Fire !

No money for KFC - call it a Chrissy present!! A plate from everyone would be good - just nibbles etc, so yep, that would be awesome!!

Scotty plus 5
Tim (Finly)
Steve (Frenzy) plus 3
Dave (Dhuck) plus 2
Ryan plus 2
Jason (Peacemaker) plus 1

I would like to be there but at this stage I cannot commit.

I've got so much going on between now and xmas.

I'll see what's happening when it gets a bit closer.

Many thanks to those who came along last night! Appreciate others couldn't make it and only about half showed up, but still had just on 24 people and it was a bottler ..

That said, 30 heavy beers and a 2am finish is messing with my head this morning!! lmao

And thanks for the card on my windshield Mal. I already have one of those ... I just don't have an underbody guard!!!! lmfao!!!!

took a couple on the bluro-matic but don't think they were all that inspiring. Went for a look outside for photo ops of the assembled rigs but would have needed a tripod.
