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/ and the original Ettamogah Pub
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.
