Trucks ready, packed and changed to muddies. Vans packed, just need to add clothes and food and ready to hit the road.
Now just need to survive the next few days at work and then hit the road.
Bring it on...........
3 very long days at work... Bring on Thursday!Quote:

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?
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.

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
Hi MR from Melb the quickest way is via Yass as you mentioned. Get to Captains Flat and follow the directions on Page 1.
See you on the weekend.
Make it happen Dazz
Also new and old members alike are prone to a bit of heat. Don't be shy
Winnie's missus I don't recall you even getting close to tasting chilli so you will be up again!
Adrian (squid) if what AB says is true you are going to be a very sad man ;)
Winnie Poo you talked yourself up for soooo long until it came to the crunch. Very disappointing mate. I think you shall be seeking redemption this trip weather you want/know it or not hehehehehe
