Hi
Betty and I have already booked our flights, the Fox's are driving down, I think that is it for the CQ contingent. :dj: Would not miss it especially after the great time we had on the Darwin trip. : We have confirmed our accomodation with VP "The Don" How about other CQ members getting the moths out of the wallets and coming down. Must admit car racing has cost a quid or two this year and also have been accussed of becoming a V8 groupie. Looking forward to seeing old mates from Brissy at the Island. Tucky and Bettyboop

Sian and I have already booked in with "The Don". I'll be driving down solo and then picking Sian up at Tullamarine on the way through, as she is traversing the globe in the month of November!
Looking forward to meeting all on the trip...do you think we could organise for the Moto GP to change their track date and be the lead up race to the V8's???!!!!! Dave |

count the Foxes in, looking forward to the drive(I know I've got a problem as I LUUVV driving my car) Hey what's money, you can't take it with you so you might as well spend it. Wendy want's to do the Great Ocean Road and also show me around the Snowy Scheme where she grew up so we will make our own way home. Can't wait to catch up with everyone-Geez Don how big is this house we are all staying in?

Tucky & Don,
My girlfriend Sian will be booked on the Virgin flight one after yours and Betty's (11:00) which arrives at 1:30 which is the same time we are booked into FPV. If you have a chat to Don over the weekend (during the ads for Bathurst of course!!!) as I don't want to have anyone miss out on any FPV happenings, however, I was thinking that I will only break for a short time on our last pit stop before coming into Melbourne, which should allow me time to find you and Betty and then get Sian from the gate...luggage...and then straight to FPV which is pretty much around the corner from the airport...about 10 - 15 minutes if I remember correctly. I shall contact Don and yourself again next week to confirm. For now it's all Bathurst on the brain! Happy Bathurst viewing to all up in the CQ XR Chapter!!! Cheers, Dave Dyer (747FLI) :eclipsee_ |

Only 8 sleeps till we leave . Tan066 and I think Tassie went okay but we were under the influence of lack of sleep(bet you thought I was going to say alcohol) due to the fact we acted as the guys representatives at their work party and felt obliged to eat drink and dance their share as well-a fantastic time was had. But enough dribbling-warm clothing organised(what is it with winter clothing it doesnt get cold up here.)Found Joshes hat and I get the car for the week but only so I can have it cleaned and packed when himself gets home sunday night.
Road trip here we come.foxylady :newangel: |

Packed my port yesterday, new socks, new jocks, new walk shoes everything ready to go, even managed to squash a jumper in.
Will give you a call later in the week if we can't fit everything in and need you to take a little port for us, I think the only thing hard to fit in is the towels

Sounds like everyone's ready to go. I have not done a long distance trip with the club before and understand that a Car Bra can be a damn handy way to keep the cars AOK. As I have pushed my budget to the limit now for this trip and won't be able to purchase one just yet. Does anyone reckon their would be a clubbie that would loan one out for an AUI in exchange for a box of XXXX or similar? Your thoughts troops???
