a reply to: mortex

Yes i only had a quick count and didn't count the roulets . The map i look at quickly becomes hard to read if you zoom in . Are you interested in a meet up as it looks like we could get a few of us .

Great Thorny Devils, sounds like you are going to have a good time.

Wish I could be there,

I like the plan, hmmm, 5.5 hrs to Brissy airport, an hour wait for boarding, 4.5 hrs to Adelaide, spend a day perhaps 8 hrs at the airshow, Beer drinking and catching up, 8 to 10 hrs, rinse and repeat flight back to Brissy and drive home.

Milk plan won't work (true love works in a Dairy at times) She doesn't like me driving even after 1 drink so I could say I went to the pub in Grafton, 1hr drive, drank too much, 6hrs, fell asleep 10hrs, (slept in car), had pub breakfast upon waking, more drinking - crikey! that could end up 2 days! My plan may work. Now thinking about the GPS app in the car.

Cheers lol

I have a much better plan. Try it please.

"Honey, I think we both need a break ... a second honey moon perhaps. Would early November be good for you. Just a week away."

See how that goes!

Depends on how things pan out with work, but I'm hoping to make an appearance.
It'll be good to get back to my old stomping grounds.

Great plan mate but tragically both of us have work commitments and farm animals to consider to so we take our holidays separately. True love flys off to Darwin soon to be with the daughter having first bub. I'd love to go but no one to take care of the farm.

Part of life here.

Kind regards and thanks for your thoughts,

Ha ha , To be honest i am not even sure if alcohol will be available but i would think it would be . Ticket rolled up yesterday so its a go from my side of things . Also looks like grandstand tickets are running out for the saturday , ticketmaster, possibly the worst booking site ever .Oh well it is what it i guess .

More of a heads up . If you want a grandstan seat for the saturday you might want to be quick as there are only a few seats left .

I have a mate named Stan. And he's grand. I call him grand Stan.

Oops, I'll let myself out Hutchman. (bump)

There is NOTHING wrong with a Kodak Instamatic 126 film camera. My first was a 126 at age 5, and my first picture was of a Qantas 747-200B with a BA 707 in the background just before I boarded the same 747 for Heathrow.
