Big mistake Nic.


Leah is looking forward to seeing you too blokes. In fact she was not coming but after nics post the other day we are now going to drag our baby through 9 hours of travel time and countless nappy and sooky stops... Lol

Nah, looking forward to catching up again gents!

Ok, quick update.

After 90 odd mm of rain the place is green as but the roads are a bit rougher but fine to get into. We can get a lot of whinching practice just in the back yard as the whole place is like a big swamp...LOL

Hopefully no more rain till the meet but I think a bit is due early next week so it could be wet as the ground is slow draining.

Any way

The place is ready to party...YeeeeHaaaa!!!


I'm really looking forward to this!

So guys and Gals, looks like i may be making the drive. Been working on the GUIV all day and did a fair bit more than i thought i needed to but all good and the Camper is half packed. I have not really committed to this trip until this week as i needed to get Christmas and Beachport over and done and see where im at. i have been back a week!

I will read this thread over the next week and catch up on the goss.

I gather there is a Cookup on one of the nights? everyone is bringing something i think i read the other day? Are we adding our own meat to that or putting in for a big roast or something? didnt read back far enough.

Is there going to be a drive on one of the days and which day? i assume there will be a day to sit and enjoy the magnificent property Kris has made available to us.

At this stage i have a very heavy week but want to roll in the early hours of Friday and head home Monday. Its about 800kms from my place and Google is telling me its 9 hours of driving time. The guys from Gippsland are you heading around the coast road or back through Melbourne?

Google is telling me to go via Yass and then head South East. from memory that is the best way by far, a long way round but no Mountains so much quicker, is that the general consensus?

katwoman
18th January 2015, 11:38 PM
Many will be happy if you make it, MR. So, you dont have to read 90 (jesus) pages of dribble, this is my understanding
There will be an all in cook up on the saturday night(24th) with Kris suppling all the meat and the rest of us supplying a selection of salads and deserts. I think some one has the bread organised as well.
I believe this may be the latest update on who is bringing what.
]Bloodyaussie: the best risotto in the world
Family4x4 + family: Coleslaw
Rusty_nail + Tegan + friends: Four Bean and Corn Salad, Bruschetta mix + bread to go with it.
Nisshead, Fiona , Josh and Ben: Generously providing his meat for everyone
Winnie, Amy and Diesel the Labrador puppy: Thorpdale potato salad
Growler, no wife n kid: I'll bring chilli salad.
AB and family: sticky date muffins and some other treat Leah will conjure up.
Rkinsey + family: either a Watermelon and Onion salad or roast potatoes, pumpkin and beetroot with sour cream.
Alitis007 + Belinda: fried rice type dish
Roofy and Jane: tabhouli
Steve, Kat and Boog : Fruit salad
Appolofish: Potato Salad

Boots
Relyimah: crunchy noodle salad type thingy.
NissanGQ4.2 and maybe family
Matfew + family
HuskyinAuz(Scott)+ wife Kathy + Joe (10yr old boxer) - Brownies, 2 kg crisps, dips, brie, bacon, other stuff (I have a fresh 3kg pork roast if we can use it)
Clarkie+ wife+ dog
Rossco
Agronaught
Squid: Chorizo/or Egg Potato Salad + a Desert Surprise...

Megatexture - maybe

Lucus30 - maybe

Not sure on the driving side of things. I think Kris and a few others have ideas but nothing concrete. We are leaving Tues, the others will let u know when and how they are getting there.
The coast is quicker for those of us down this way ( thru Cooma ) but still 8 hours to Captains flat.
Thats all I know.................................
Oh, and Growlers is supplying the silly chilli

18th January 2015, 11:48 PM

Hey guys, special request. Our meetups are generally Awesome, everyone has a great time and the company is great. Given that this one will be a Massive Family event id like to request that we try and stem our language around the fire when the ladies are about. I know, i dont need to say it but thought i would anyway. Im OK with the F Bomb every now and then and certainly very guilty of that but the C Bomb can be a big issue especially for the ladies. Lets keep that to the whee small hours of Chilli antics if we can. Tell me to F off if you want. lol, but the full families dont come often and we want to encourage that some more if we can. If we can consider our radio chat also when on the UHF as there are kids in most of the cars. I know it should not have to be said but has happened plenty and would be great to get it out of the way now.

Hey guys, special request. Our meetups are generally Awesome, everyone has a great time and the company is great. Given that this one will be a Massive Family event id like to request that we try and stem our language around the fire when the ladies are about. I know, i dont need to say it but thought i would anyway. Im OK with the F Bomb every now and then and certainly very guilty of that but the C Bomb can be a big issue especially for the ladies. Lets keep that to the whee small hours of Chilli antics if we can. Tell me to F off if you want. lol, but the full families dont come often and we want to encourage that some more if we can. If we can consider our radio chat also when on the UHF as there are kids in most of the cars. I know it should not have to be said but has happened plenty and would be great to get it out of the way now.

lets put this out there again good on you daz there has been a few familys droped of because of this thanks mate

Still unsure of departure time and which direction to go. Got a few things going on and am hoping they all sail along smoothly and I can head off Thursday arvo heading east , but if things go off the rails then I will head north at some stage before Friday 7am. Will know where everythings at Thursday .

Our plans are still firm boots if you end up managing heading up Thursday through east gippy. Will be at ada river camp in the arvo sometime. See how you go it will be a nice drive. . .

I'll actually be on uhf40 for the drive up keeping my ear out for the location of the Police... not that I will be speeding but still nice to know so I dont have one of those awesome down hill runs where you manage to hit 120 for only a moment and get pinned for it.

If I come across another traveler I will turn to uhf17 to chat.

AB no one has pre arranged to be a travel buddy so at this stage I will be solo.

That's what scan is for cocko
