Hi All,
Been awhile since I've been able to regularly visit the
forum, but I see that the SA mob have got a weekend get together coming up. And I know some of the Vic mob have had similar meets. All this begs the question...when is WA going to have it's turn???

Hi Steve,
Shelby is doing great, thanks for asking. Hard to believe nearly 6.5 months old already.
Robe thing sounds good but just not possible. Got a family wedding in Vic around Sept/Oct next year though so we're thinking of incorporating SA into a trip across then. Have to wait and see though. Re organising WA get together...I guess I was hoping someone else would take the initiative as I have very little spare time lately. Hope all goes
well with the arrival of your new grandson.

NSW/ACT just had one, i'm waiting for QLD/NT to have one as
well and maybe sometime in the future we could have an all in one too. And if Jeff (Beddo) gets back too me, maybe another one soon for NSW/ACT.

Melissa, is great to see you back with a post again. It is great to meet with the ones we have met since we went to the Wombat Forest and got ourselves acquainted with Baz, Mr and Mrs Al, John and Muddy Girl, GOB and Denny - and of course Member Eric and family too. Since then a few of the SA clan Bonz who is local to us and looking forward to catching up with more at
Robe.
Heather and I will actually be in
Perth just before the end of the month in the lead up to the Davis Cup re-qualifying round if you WA folks feel like socialising. The email addy is with the rig pic. Be in a pseudo 4by then though.
Unfortunately I have been having net problems here with the computers and they are not socialising properly - network is working but not for internet although all is set up as it should be.
Well I reckon it is and so does our computer doctor. The desktop net server goes on holidays in a boot process too and since I tried to get the Java going it does not like me to log in as a member here :-( > One could say I am not a happy camper.........

Yeah I would be interested, more so in a day trip and then we could plan something for a weekend etc. I am currently in
Karratha at the moment with work and will possibly be in
Darwin a bit later in the month. I will keep an eye out.

Hi Melissa,
Good to see you back "on air".
Back in mid June a few of us half talked about getting together and going up to
Lake Indoon. (post #13904)
It didn't eventuate before the rainy season hit us and we haven't revisited it since.
I reckon if you were to suggest something - you'd get some takers.
Cheers
Stephen J.

Lake indoon would have been OK too but no fun during winter. I've just about had enough of winter now and getting restless to have a weekend away somewhere. Actually, hubby and I have been talking about a weekend at
the beach...possibly somewhere between
Lancelin and Wedge Pt. But there's plenty of sandgropers around this
forum. Surely someone can come up with a suggestion...even just a picnic somewhere!

Hi Rox,
Don't think I know
the spot you are referring too. Are you volunteering to organise something?

I'd be keen, it'll have to be soonish though as the bub's getting close to being fully baked! She's just browning at the moment. LOL

Bub is due at the end of October.
Whiteman
park is not a bad idea, it's free and green this time of year, they also have free wood for the BBQ's. If people want to they can go for a drive out to the Pinjar power plant through
the pines after lunch or somthing like that.

I belive you can even reserve some BBQ area there, don't know how or if at any cost but I have seen them reserved before.
Spose we would just need to organise a time and date, post it and take it from there. Whatya reckon?

Melissa.
Just start a new thread, pick a date and place that suits you, and call it a reunion.
If people turn up, good, if not, then have a good weekend yourself.
It works! No organising required.
YMMV
