G'day All,
I have attended two Melbourne Forum Get to Gethers, and have had a ball at both. Learnt stuff, met people, made a couple of mates.
I have sussed out that there are at least five forum members in the Central Victorian area (Bendigoish).......and just wondered if there are any more "hidden in the woodwork" that would attend a GTG in Bendigo if arranged??
Ya can count me in if the date doesnt clash with our last shop auction on the 23rd June.
I have a hankering to see your water purification unit, if its in operation by then that is. Maybe Bracksie could use the idea to generate water from the sea for Melbourne. :U
Al :cool:
As already indicated, I'm up for it, depending on prior commitments of course.:2tsup:
I'm in.
Bill
I'd consider it, depending on the usual other commitments of course.
I will probably be in too
If anyone wants a lift to Avooooca I can get you there, I actually know where it is as we have relos living there...:p

Possible dates..........
The 23rd of June is OUT!!! (Al's final sale)
Is July'ish....cant't find the calendar.........first/2nd weekend within the ball park???
Presentable GTG area is required.
Therefore,,,,,,,,,,July (early) is good for me
I really like to see lots of people freezing their boy's bits off.
Whaddayarekun???
Noel, 30th June is out for me (SWMBO birtday!) as is 7th July (grandsons' 21st in Adelaide).
Any time before or after works.
That'll be the 7th/8th or 14th/15th.
Either of those weekends works for me.
Looks good for me at this stage too.
Ok,
In the light of how much cleaning up there is to do.......(or should I just up my liability insurance???) The weekend of the 14/15 July seems the go.
That gives us heaps of time to plan......makes sure it's cold enough so everybody freezes.
Don't care if its Saturday or Sunday.....(I'm not gonna do one of those poll thingos).

14/15th July works for me. Not fussy on Sat or Sun.
Good One Fred.
Closer in we'll get it down to a Saturday or Sunday.
Off to Bedy byes now,
Is this gathering still happening? Just realised that we have rsser's turning day on the 15th, so that rules me out for Sunday as I am supplying the main piece for the turning but can do Saturday
It's still on. It's on the Saturday.
Thats good :doh: I was heading that way on Saturday anyway.
Al :U
What an odd coincidence I'm heading out that way too.
Ok, seeing that it's still happening, where are all the details :shrug:, like what time and what do we need to bring apart from warm clothes, protection from foil wearing Al :o maybe a fire extinguisher :doh:
All that we know it's in Avoca at 11am.
If you see a bunch of reprobates standing on the corner, that'll be us.
Never fear for I, the Black Pimpernel have ways to find out where he lives. (said in my bestest mock French accent) :UQuote:

Just rang Noel and left a message on his machine.
Al :)
Sorry guys but work has got in the way of this event for me.
Al :(
G'day All,
the rain God has got in the way of this event for me too!
Last weekend we had the first decent rain for about 7 years....that's when things got sticky.
The guttering around portions of the house collapsed....pouring water into bits of the house.
The council had graded the road last month......and filled the entry to the drain pipe under the driveway. The water backed up......overflowed into the paddock and straight into my shed.......until it was a foot deep. (the shed was to be the undercover/warm venue for the gathering.) Unfortunately, it is now a muddy bog.
So, I would like to postpone the gathering until we get dried out, and until I get guttering and drainage sorted.
Sorry for that, but I'll post a new proposed date soon.
The pic attached shows the dust bowl that was once called a dam.......the morning after the deluge.........pity that most of it came through the shed.
Sorry to hear about the shed Noel, I hope things get back to normal soon.
The council had graded the road last month......and filled the entry to the drain pipe under the driveway. = money for new tools.
Al :U
All the best for the clean-up Noel
see ya at the next one
