    For the boys driving up from down south the Newell highway or the New England are much faster than going all the way to sydney and then up the Pacific Highway. Not to mention the number of 80km/h zones through there due to roadworks. Just something to think about, unless you wanna check out what coastal NSW has to offer of the way.
    They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time, it works every time.

Stopping in these locations breaks the trip up into family managable portions of 3 x approx 8 hour days.
    Thanks Warnie!

    Yeah Plassy I reckon we lock that in mate. Any other Victorians are welcome to join our convoy too.

    Had a chat to a few people yesterday and they came up with, what I think, is a superb idea and subsequently I'm seeking your thoughts.

    We're planning on two communal dinners using the monster camp oven on the Monday and the Friday, and the thinking is we organise a chef to cook for us and supply the food from totally local produce. I'll suss out pricing but reckon it'll end up being something like $5-$6 per head for a full banquet feed (multiple meats, vege's, etc, etc).

    This saves people packing 5 nights worth of dinners, let's everyone relax whilst someone else cooks for us, and probably will work out cheaper for most than sorting your own food for those nights.

    Thoughts?

    Me personally - I think it's an awesome idea ... just another 'holiday touch' to make it that much more attractive for everyone, but obviously open for discussion.
