So who's up for another Get Together?
ME
:2tsup::2tsup:
i will be holding a sawdust bbq some time but it has been put off as i have to mutch to do and teh joint is a mess. need to get the tractor home to clean some space.
when it's warmer, or if it's held someplace warmer than the Darling Downs:rolleyes:
Carl knows the ideal warm place.
The back bar of the Cooktown Pub.
No problems, I'll have a place to stay then, got a few relatives in Cooktown:)
Oh, too far away? bugger!:rolleyes:
Well who's gonna host it then:?
weisyboy.....he's got credit up there
I'm not sure we could all find our way to Carl's:B
Well?
we dont all have the sence of direction of a cow.
i willbe hosting one some stage but dotn hold your breath.
Wild Dingo's heading our way. why not line it up for when he gets to this part of Queensland:)
Good idea Wendy:2tsup: And thanks for offering to host it:2tsup::2tsup::q:;
Oh No you don't FC :nonono::no::p:D
It all depends on when Mr WD is in town and a couple of other committments I have in September as to whether I attend, let alone even hold one.
I am in and out of Qld over the coming months whilst on leave, but I will attend a get together if I'm in town.
Hmm, seems however everyone always wants a get together, but we always run short of offers to actually host one. Apart from being in and out, I've held 3 so count me out to hold one soon, but I will try to be at any event within a decent driving distance provided I can get there. I just went to 2 in Melbourne :2tsup: and planning to attend one in WA in a few weeks :U.
For those of you fearful of holding a BBQ, here's some pointers to calm those fears:
- We are a friendly bunch and don't bite
- If you can't cook, someone else will (I've been known to cook a few)
- If you don't have a BBQ, have a cold meat & salad type BBQ, or ask someone to bring one (mine is mobile)
- If providing food & drinks is putting you off, just say it is BYO
- Disposable plates, cups knives & forks etc etc will do, and again if you don't have any, tell us to BYO
- If you worried about your messy yard & house, don't be, many of us are pigs :B. For my place, I just warn people to be prepared for a mess :U
- If your shed is small, or you don't even have one, again don't worry. All we need is a yard to spread out on. Others can bring things for a show & tell, or a swap meet, or just chew the fat over a friendly drink.
- If you don't have chairs, ask people to again BYO
- If you are worried about the mess afterwards, some of us have been known to even help out there.
- If you are worried about the weather (in Queensland :?), just ask everyone to log on at a certain time to confirm it is off or on - just allow for people's travel times.
It isn't really that hard :no:
BBQ/get togethers are a great way to meet and greet other forumites and discuss similar interests. So take a deep breath and step up :U
