To be honest I generally like the idea of keeping the wooding forum as my "virtual" friends .... and perhaps it may the the red talking .... however I think I may be interested in shrugging off my introverted tendencies and coming along. Generally we try and take an overseas holiday at this time of the year but we have delayed it in 2008 so that we can make it 6 months. For some reason the 5th sounds like it is generally busy but I am sure that I can be free .....
Kman-oz if you are interested in having a stinky along please remind me again in late December ...... Laverton works well for me!
I fit the bill ..... I am lacking experience ..... I like a bite and a pint.
Cheers

Everyone is welcome Stinky.
My mate Jim will be coming, he's recently got into some box making so he *may* have something to show off. The good news is I have some beer left from the Christening.... I'll *try* to save y'all some

G'day kman,
Am I allowed to put my name down too??
I live in Avoca, but one of my kids lives in Hoppers Crossing, and his Birthday is on the eigth of January, so I could kill three birds with the one stone:
1. meet you people
2. bludge a night at one of my kids places
3. save postage on his Birthday pressie...then bugger off back into the wilds of Central Victoria.

Thus, I offer by humble (and I do mean humble) workshop up for an open invitation to anyone interested in a simple meet and greet with the chance to show off your skills, or if you're like me, to pick up some new ones!
So far I have four or five Melbournites interested in a BBQ and a few brews, so feel free to come along and perhaps put some names to some faces. As details become clearer I'll post changes, in the mean time, details as follows:
Location: Laverton, western suburbs of Melbourne
Date: 5th of January 2008
Time: All are welcome from 10am, lunch at midday-ish. Perhaps dinner too.
Offers for provision of food and beverages have been made, but if numbers grow it'll have to become a BYO affair. If numbers grow a *lot* I might ask someone to bring another BBQ over too.
If anyone with perhaps a more substantial workshop would like to act as host to the event, please don't hesitate to offer, I don't have a huge amount of space or gear to share around.
That's all for now, I'll talk to y'all soon!

Update: All up there will be about 15 of us, which suites me because my place just isn't that big
Between 15 people the beer I have won't last long, so I'd suggest bringing a drink along if you plan to have a couple. Might I also ask that if anyone feels like helping out with food (salads, bread, what ever...) I'd appreciate your help The BBQ I can handle; burgers, snags, et al, but if you feel like bringing something along PM me.
Please send me a PM to confirm you intention to attend so that I can arrange meat, seating and all that jazz.
See y'all soon!
