My draft suggestion, to avoid the relative boredom of all driving to our 'central' mtg place separately, is to have 3 mini group Meets:
Northsiders: North lakes shopping centre? (Not a northsider - so suggest otherwise if it's a bad idea)
Central: Milton Maccas
Southsiders: Springwood Maccas (
- once again suggest otherwise if a bad idea)
We can all then head to our main mtg point of (I'd suggest Wivenhoe or Esk?) by around 11am - then we can head to.......
how many heads do we have coming from 'Woomba? (ie. should we also have a west group?)
This is a working copy, as I'm green to this, [constructive

Okay, 6th of June is booked in! Letting work know tomorrow when I go in.
Id prefer not Springwood maccas as my car is preety low atm, same with Simons so yeah, if someone else knows a place nearby would be sweeeeet.

Just a suggestion..maybe at some stage if possible make a list of the expected cars at each of the 1st meets so people won't get left behind??
Also I can go for a drive on one of my days off and look around for another place for the southsiders if that's cool?? It'll give me something constructive to do!!

Hey guys, looking to head down to Sydney on the 22nd-23rd and with some luck, be able to buy a good FTO and drive back to Brissie. I live southside, about 5 minutes from the Sunnybank Maccas, is it ok for me and my gf to join in? Would be great to meet some other owners!
