    Default Watch out Victorians, here I come!

    Scored some nearly free tickets to Melbourne, arrive on 17/10, depart for Brissie on the 31/10, back home 3/11. Would like to catch up with forumites if it can be arranged.

    Mick if you can kick it back a couple of days you could meet a lot more at the Melbourne wood show 12-14th October.

    Are you travelling while your down here?
    There was a young boy called Wyatt
    Who was awfully quiet
    And then one day
    He faded away
    Because he overused White

    I don't think I can change the dates. I may or may not be travelling around when I get there. I have a friend in Melbourne I'd like to catch up with and I have friends travelling with me who I scored the tickets off of that I want to spend some time with. Other than that, I'm pretty flexible, no particular plans.

    I'm in. Always happy to meet another forumite
    I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

    Sounds like another BBQ gathering is needed.

    Better pack some warm gear Mick , going by your dress code at Wendy's BBQ, you just might need it

    Michael,

    There's a bed here if you want to go for a drive or a bus ride.

    Have been planning to host another forum BBQ, so this is a timely prod. I have spoken to the bride & we're all go.

    Will get a thread up as soon as I can.

    Will be either Sunday 21 Oct or 28 Oct. Yet to check if anythings on yet.

    Have a spare room Mick if you need a bed while you're down.


    Cheers......................Sean
