Possibly coming over to Canberra - meet and greet anyone?

Put up with the Merc he says.....

I'll have to study this itinerary very close. Saturday arvo would be awesome, perhaps I could go the long way back from Thredbo via Tumut? I don't know the roads too well though.

Hey Tim

Should be free fine on Sat and Sun (and after work hours thurs and fri), except I got soccer 12 till 3 on sat. But I could just play the first half if somthing is happening in the arvo

Would been keen for a spin upto Robertson to see chickenpants and his wrecking yard. Maybe hit the town on Sat night (Thurs is a big student night, and fridays preety big to)? or go for dinner somewhere? I dunno I should be preety flexable with what ever you want to do.

Would love to hit the town Thursday night, I suppose I'll have to depend on you for directions though...

How about a Sunday morning visit to Mr FowlTrouser's wrecking yard(:lol:)?

Oh I should have clarified that I'll be in Canberra on Saturday for my mother and father in-law's anniversary.

Tim - if you're keen on coming up to robertson, I'd be happy to meet you in robbo.

YOU HAVE TO HAVE A PIE AT THE PIE SHOP!

shame you couldn't come to Sydney though.... I'll have to hold you up to your promises of coming over though

tim_81coupe · Post by **tim_81coupe** » Wed May 24, 2006 7:16 pm

No worries at all Alex, sounds like a plan.

Yes a pie is definitely on the menu - maybe more than one! Everyone I've talked to who knows of Robertson has told me to get a pie!

Oh - and to follow up my housemate is not coming. He now plays on his computer up to around 8 hours a day during the week and over 10 hours on the weekend. World of Warcraft is a disease. He seriously can't leave the computer to go take a leak - let alone go travelling. At least Azeroth is safe with him about.

So Muddy, I'll meet you in Canberra on Saturday afternoon then? Pub? Someones house?

And I'm going to hold you to that "student night" Thomas, going to one tomorrow in Fremantle

. I'll have a direct comparison.

MUDRAT · Post by **MUDRAT** » Wed May 24, 2006 7:26 pm

Yep, Saturday arvo is cool. You could get me on 0407 529 251.

Cool Cool, I'll see if I can get a few of the RS liberty boys to come out. A few of them are absolutly nuts!

Might want to start thinking about times for the Robertson trip. It'll be a 2hr trip each way, and you got to catch a plane back in Canberra at 5pm? Early start from Canberra so can spend a couple of hours in robbo to meet smoov and chickenpants?

Also I may be free on Sat for a quick meet up in the arvo, so let me know whats happening (0402 343 742).

Also where will you be staying in Canberra (suburb), interms of getting home on friday morning?

And do you know about a rental car yet?

tim_81coupe · Post by **tim_81coupe** » Wed May 24, 2006 11:17 pm

SMS'd all of you.

Awesome guys, thanks. Surprised to see Smoov and Muddy are quicker on the phone than on the boards!! :P :P (Response time: 1.4 sec).

Good thing someones thinking about my flight back Thomas. I'd forgotten

. So I suppose the absolute latest I can leave Robertson is around the 2pm mark, I'll probably get going a little earlier though. I don't actually know any of the RSLC boys at all, but I'm always keen to meet new Subaru enthusiasts.
I have definite word on a hire car, hell if Mum tells me she's not getting one then I am! Manual Corolla, manual Corolla, manual Corolla..... waaarp *chirp*

Oh - and suburb. I'm not sure yet, I'll endeavour to find out...

LTurbo · Post by **LTurbo** » Wed May 24, 2006 11:30 pm

got your message.

So we can use the rolla for the trip up to robbo?

BaronVonChickenPants · Post by **BaronVonChickenPants** » Wed May 24, 2006 11:59 pm

Gday Tim, you can catch me on 0421 938 746, I'd love to head over to Canberra for Saturday arvo but the chances are pretty slim, keen as hell for Sunday morning pie run with everyone

Jordan.

Oh, and I forgot to stick my hand up for one of those DVD's.

Cheers

Anyone got any suggestions for a meeting place?

How about we say 2pm at Antigos? Been there before and we know it's good.

tim_81coupe · Post by **tim_81coupe** » Thu May 25, 2006 6:38 pm

2pm should be right on the money.

My mum is staying somewhere called Phillip. It took a lot of rereading her sms to me this morning to make sure it was in a place called Phillip, not with some bloke

. Is Phillip in/near some place called Woden? Anyway she's around that area, so thats where I'll be based (except Friday night - I'll be in Thredbo

)

LTurbo · Post by **LTurbo** » Thu May 25, 2006 6:49 pm

Yep, Phillip is a suburb and right next to Woden. Woden is a big shoping area/plaza area. Phillip is about 10min from my place.

MUDRAT · Post by **MUDRAT** » Thu May 25, 2006 7:05 pm

Yep, right near the missus' too. The good enda town.

steptoe · Post by **steptoe** » Fri May 26, 2006 12:13 am

The good enda town - now that Burnie Court is no longer there !

might just google Burnie Court, Lyons and see what is said !!

Hey guys, I've got a quick question regarding the DVD's. Would you like them burnt in:

a) DVD Video format, plays in any DVD player but will have less content

or

b) DVD Data format, will be burnt on a Windows PC, plenty more content.

Whichever method you want I can do. The discs I'll be using are DVD-R, can burn on DVD+R if you want. With the DVD Video option there will be a menu, just a very basic one though. With the DVD Data option there will simply be a file dump off my hard drive of selected videos (there's lots of double ups) and many many pics. There will be no pictures on a DVD Video disc, too much bothering about :P.

I'll endeavour to put each disc in a proper case too.
