Title: Pintoxication Day - 10 April, 2010
Post by: Pintoxicated on December 14, 2009, 06:49:04 PM
Hello All,

I am planning to hold  Pintoxication Day at my place on the 10 April, 2010.

How to get here -

I am about 18 km's north of Albury - on the NSW/Vic border.  Great opportunity for the Sydney guys to come down and the Melbourne guys to come up and meet some new faces. About 6 hour drive from Sydney CBD and about 3.5 - 4 hours from Melbourne CBD. 

Albury does have an airport with carriers such as Virgin (jet), Qantas and REX flying into and out of Albury. It's about a 10-15 minute trip from the airport to my place.

Accomodation options -

Pitch a tent in the yard or bring a caravan (plenty of room). The Ettamogah Grand National Motel http://www.ettamogahmotel.com.au/ (http://www.ettamogahmotel.com.au/) and the original Ettamogah Pub http://www.ettamogah.com/ (http://www.ettamogah.com/) are both about 3km's away.

Here are the motel rates I have been quoted by the Ettamogah Grand National Motel.

Standard room Queen and One single $90

Family sized room Queen and two singles $110 (plenty of floor space for sleeping bags apparently)

Special honeymoon suit with spa bath. (couples only) $120

Hopefully there will be at least 9 pinball machines up and running with the possibility of some other local machines being brought in for the meet.

I am open to ideas and suggestions to make this meet a memorable one.

They will be very welcome.......there is no such thing as too many pinball machines is there.   ^^^  It's going to be very cool to see the garage full.   @@*

I know there is going to be a few meets on around this time.  Hopefully everyone will have an opportunity to get to at least one or all of them.
