FTO AUSTRALIA

Hey guys I was talking to Simon earlier as I thought it was about time to organise a cruise for the QLD section. I was thinking along the lines of a cruise and a BBQ and some drinks and a poker night at my place to finish it off. I was thinking the 20th of June. Let me know what you guys think.

This might give Alekazam a good opportunity to take some of those awesome photographs we have been seeing

Sounds pretty sweet to me, except I won't be in an fto of course What time were you guys thinking? Lunch, evening?

Damn it. I'll have all the repairs done to my FTO by then, so I would be 100% keen for this.

Great, except I'm working.

Jesus hates me.

Prob early afternoon for the cruise, have the bbq around 4 so its not too dark to cook then head back to my place for some drinks and poker.

Im open to suggestions if anybody is not happy with this.

Sounds like a plan .. I'll be there..

Post up some more details about meeting points & let us know where we're cruising to on the day (no pre-coordinated hassle from the law that way)

Let me know if you need any poker sets with chips etc

Well jamoe im in, may not be able to make it too the cruise due to work but definitly keen for poker.

I have 2 poker sets but if somebody wants to bring along an extra set just in case that would be cool. I have 2 dining tables that I was going to use but if we have a good turnout I will grab the table off you if you dont mind.

As for the cruise what are people inerested in. I was thinking if we met up at the Alderly Arms then we could head the back way up to my place. Up Samford road then through Mt Neebo and Mt Mee. Then its just a short cruise from Caboolture to Redcliffe for the BBQ and poker. What do we think?

Sounds like a plan mate.. can't think of a better way to get to your place

ok, my shithouse work has me working to 6.30 on the 20th. I can go to wherever everyones at after that though and would definitly be keen on food...

@Yano thats too bad. At least you can make the bbq and the poker.

Thought it might be a good idea to make a list of people that are coming and what they are attending. Just copy and add your name. I'll start off.

1. Jamie & Andrea. Cruise/BBQ and poker.

Hey Hey,

Hey Mia. I live in Redcliffe and all members are welcome to come. You can meet at my house and follow me to the Alderly Arms for the start of the cruise if you are not confident on finding the meeting place.

Bugger, just a little bit too far to travel this weekend. Wish I had been on sooner to find out. Have fun though

Okay, so we should confirm the meeting point details? Times / Dates / Locations / Maps etc..

Cheers

Okay guys im trying to decide whether to have the BBQ down at the Redcliffe waterfront or at my joint. Im easy either way. Probably mostly depends on what time those of you that are not going on the cruise will be at my joint. This would be Simon and John going by the list. If you could get back to me with arrival times we could decide if its too late to BBQ down the waterfront. Cheers

When thats decided I will work out meeting times for the Alderly Arms so we will all meet up at my place around the same time.

I work at buranda and finish work out 6.30 so I'm thinking like 7.30ish I'll be up your way? Maybe less if it's a good run. Dunno what time simon was thinking of coming up, but maybe I can meet up with him and do the drive together?

Okay guys the plan is to meet at the Alderly Arms carpark by 2.30pm. If any body doesn't know where this is or how to get there let me know and I will put up directions.

We will then go along Samford rd and go up through the mountains all the way to the D'Agullar Hwy. We will stop a couple of times at various lookous for some photos and give a chance for those slower drivers a chance to catch up!

Then we head down to the Caboolture and a short drive to my place.



For those people that will be having a few drinks like myelf I have plenty of room in the beer fridge so feel free to bring some drinks. Also a bottlo near my joint too if we need to stop there on the way.

On that note I dont support drink driving so those people that dont have a designated driver can stay the night at my place if you like. I have a double air mattress and a single foam mattress free as well as a couch if need be.

I think thats all...any questions or anything I missed?
