Should we get a small pig or do like 3 big roasts(beef,lamb,pork) or do what George did at Mattys??
this is it

I've been giving this trip a heck of a lot of consideration and unfortunately for me I'm going to rule myself out. It's just too far for me to travel at this time and I need to be a bit kind to myself as I'll be returning to work for the first time in 8 weeks just a week beforehand.
It really pains me to make the call as it's a massive crew, would be an awesome weekend and I'm keen to check out Krisso's piece of paradise. If last years edition was anything to go by, this year it should be a cracker!
Have a great trip up there and I'm sure I'll see most of you again around another fire some time later this year.
Damn......

yes unfortunately i am 90% sure i wont get there either as the flights have changed and i have to work friday so the next flight it 330pm saturday and doesnt get in till 1030pm to canberra and then i have to drive from there so its hardly a viable option unless i win lotto im being realistic and saying i wont get there.
its such a shame many are dropping off like flies now were getting close to the day =( of course all very valid reasons, im just saying its disappointing as i was looking forward to catching up again/meeting some of you for the first time.
No worries mate, im counting on the 10% lol.Quote:

Slightly off topic, the car gods just want to make my life hard ATM. Yesterday on the way home from wedding venue shopping, the dualis decided to shit itself and started missing. Turns out it's dropped a coil pack.
I just can't win with cars ATM. It's at the same mechanic the patrol is at and he took pity on me and the predicament. It will definitely be ready for the meetup, but if it isn't I'm still coming, will just be arriving in a tough as guts VW Polo!
Can't wait to see you all soon guys, looking forward to meeting some new faces!
AT's will be fine Sean. Pretty rocky country I think, and should be touring sort of stuff I would imagine as opposed to tuff tracks, unless Krisso's got a few sneakies up his sleeve. . .Quote:

Ok, I'm thinking I'll do 3 huge roasts on the spit one night and maybe a small pig another so we'll need some sides to go with it. Maybe every camp could provide a small salad or anything else to go with the meat.
We don't want 20 garden salads so maybe everyone could post up what they can provide so we dont all do the same thing...
I'm providing the meat and NO I don't want donations ..LOL My shout bnoys and girls...I just have to let Jane know:)
It official I will be flying solo for this trip.... I need a little me time so am leaving Wife ,kids and dogs at home.
Nic I feel ya pain mate......
I'll pickup some potato salad on the way up (will be store bought), looking at the numbers I don't think it will be enough for everyone so others feel free to bring the same.Quote:
