Food
A few have asked about food.
I will endeavour to PM everyone over the coming week incase this post is missed
There will be food here and more can be got if we run short.
There will be breakfast lunch and tea for those who want it.
There is a pub virtually next door for any who want to go and get a couner meal (at your own expense). Not encouraging a booze up but likely will be a drink or two in the evening for any who BYO
If you have special dietary needs you can bring your own or let me know and if I can I will accommodate.
If you want to bring anything to contribute to the supplies you are welcome to do so. As some are travelling some distance this is by no means expected.
Life has a way of throwing all sorts of challnges at us. If you cant afford to contribute finacially or with provisions dont be put off, come anyway.
For those who want to donate a few $$ there will be a tin or jar somewhere. I dont need to know who did or didnt donate or how much. Just come and have a ood time.

Dave, if I may request an update on who and when they are planning/hoping to attend, thank you....
NOT URGENT, just over the next day or two, thank you. Cheers, Peter
Projector is fine to go and I have an old screen (has a few wrinkles) but should do the job. Do we have any others interested or should I just plan for
a demo for Raechell and you? Don't want to bring extra equipment if not required as we may go to Avoca and the Pyrenees on Mondat anf Tuesday - still to be decided.
Is there power available for the caravan or should I bring a generator?
Bob
Sally may want in on this demo but I'm not sure.
I ask her later
May not hurt to bring a generator. Depends where you park and how much machiney is running. If you want to travel light we will make a lead reach. As for the demo Im sure there will be plentybof interest. There are a few who will not be getting there till Sunday night. If you were stilk there then they would love a session. I was thinking towards evening may be a nice wknd down time where we can sit back and enjoy your tallent and instruction.

I'm very interested.
So am I, but I will only be there until late Sunday arvo.
Jools would probably be interested in the demo, but we will only be there until Sunday arvo too due to work commitments on the Monday.
Also we have been offered a bed in Horsham by friends of ours. Therefore we may not be camping out. These friends stay with us when they come to Melbourne so it is hard to knock back their offer when they want to return the favour.
Cheers
Doug
If Bob would be kind enough to do two demos, I would suggest one on Saturday evening for those who can only be there Saturday and Sunday and another on Monday evening for the latecomers before everyone goes home on Tuesday. That might cover everyone?
Of course it is up to Bob if he wants to do that.
Cheers
Doug
If anyone who is going to the Horsham GTG
is pretty good at finishing please stand up now you are needed badly .
I would like some pointers in that regard please.
At the moment ,my main interest would be ,in finishing small items like saw handles ,tool handles ,extra.boxes.
I would like to use shellac finishes ,more ie French polishing ,but I'm open to other ideas
.My main problem being I'm male ,I'm in patient ,I don't always listen well ,I'm easily distracted ,I'm male ,I'm in patient lol.
This may also interested some others going as well ,so we could get a little tiny group learning thing happening.
Maybe give us something to do ,for a few hours .
Other wise it could be lots of listen to Daves bad humour.
Not sure if it's political incorrect in these times of political correctness, to try and bag our most gracious host all ready( I take full responsibility for me on this one)
Even before it starts .
No bad humor from me ever
Why did the chicken cross theroad for the 23rd time?

At the last GTG at Jerilderee I brought a shade structure and an urn. Do you need either or both for Dooen?.
Getting closer now, anything else needed?
Alan...
Have put in a request for the good weather, not sure how many brownie points I have in that department. Other items will be packed ready for the long haul.
See Ya,
Alan...
Looks like I will have to bring my "Dads Bad Joke Book" :D
Well...Dirk and I are starting to think about our trip down to Dave's 4 day Extravaganza and are wondering what would be the best route to take. I need to pass through Austinmer (near Wollongong) for a quote at 9am on Friday but other than that we are as free as a bird. What do you all think would be the nicest route?
Regards
Pete.
I generally go wagga and cross country from there but if you go down a little further to Shepparton thats nice country
This time of year all the paddicks will be stripped and dry. Not sure if thee will be any green anywhere. If there is pics for evidence ;)
From Shepparton go theough the back blocks. You'll get a few small towns and pass through Bendigo.
Best potato scollops in Australia in St Arnaud about three blocks up the main street on the left diag opposite an old bank I think

Depends if you want to get to Dave's quickly or not but down the Princess Hwy turn off to Kangaroo Valley, Moss Vale onto Hume, down to Albury then across to Daves
or
Down to Batemans Bay, across to Canberra, Wagga then across to Dave
We generally try to avoid Shepparton as it can hold you up a fair bit.
Normally we get off the Hume at Violet Town, then Rushworth to Bendigo through dairy country, then St Arnaud to Dooen.

On my way to Dooen, I will be calling in to Albury to pick up some clamps and a Dust Cyclone from Aldav.
If anyone going to the GTG wants to order some new toys from Aldav, I can bring them with me.
Have a look at his site - Aldav's Store items - Get great deals on Woodworking Tools, Files Burrs items on eBay Stores! if you need any retail therapy after the silly season.
Alan...
That is really nice of you Al. :2tsup:
Not sure if there's anything I want at the moment, but its nice to know that if there is you can get it for me.
I generally catch up with David from Aldav's store at the HTPAA tool sales I highly recommend his mini cyclones for the vacuum cleaner. Good units and well priced. :2tsup:
Cheers
Doug
