Thread: Who's interested in meeting up for a BBQ?

I'm always up for a barbie simon.

Phil

As you know I am to far away to attend, but thanks for the invite.
One an idea might be to hold it at someones place so the blokes could talk tools. As for who's place you would have to sort that out, but thought it might be an idea.
Sort of like a workshop BBQ.

Hi Dave, did think of you when I posted mate.

Hi Phil,

I'd be partial to a BBQ on Lake windoree if anyone else was up for it. I don't need an excuse to visit raat, it's a great place!

Or, like Dave suggested can have it at someones place. I'd offer my place if people are keen to travel.

Cheers,

Simon

I'd be there! "bring a plate" type do - or would you like us bring food in the plate as well
Have a talk to Phil (machtool) about organising the food for group of metal workers. He's really got that game sewn up.
Cheers,
Joe

I can certainly attest to that. Phil's catering was second to none.

OK. Looking good. Ideas on a venue? Do we want a central location like raat or you guys want to have it at someones place or come to my place?

PS I like Phils cooking style too! I would be happy to do a similar thing. What do people want to do? Bring their own or I can buy the stuff and we all spit the bill?

Simon

I know someone in the fire brigade down that way, so you shouldn't have any trouble with lighting fires, LOL

I agree Simon. The lakes a great spot for a BBQ. I don't mind travelling though, even to newcastle.

Phil

Yea Yea Phil, rub it in. How come everything is down that way, most of the members, all the cheap machines and tools, auctions, scraping classes, now BBQ's LOL

Dave

Hi,

BBQ ......... yea, yea, yea .......... count in in

Is there any where to park my Jumbo!

Ballarat is about the same distance from me as Melbourne. So I'm easily pleased.
I do like the idea of a workshop visit and BBQ combined!
We Victorians could perhaps start a new "Forum Activity" and have a - say - 2 or 3 monthly BBQ/Pizza/Kebab/Cjinese/whatever afternoon at someone different's place each time?
That would give us some better insights into members' innovations and solutions (from a hobbyist perspective rather than industrial perspective).
Or it might include a local engineering works or Railway workshop or Model Engineers' club rooms or something like that, since I suspect not everyone's property and shed is suitable to have 10 or 12 men over for a feed and sticky-beak.
I'd certainly be up for it (and give me a good reason to clean up my shed) once in a while.
Thoughts?
Cheers,
Joe

I'm in...

Any where any time.. tell me what brand of beer to bring.
