It was nice to meet another forum member and it was nice to meet Daniels wife and son.

Anyone visiting QLD is welcome to come n say hello and have a cold one and a few games on any of the pins.  ^^^ ^^^ ^^^

sorry i didn't catch up with you Daniel.
I spend quite a bit of time over at cave mans place but I was stuck in hospital and in bed after my double hernia operation.(i am still having trouble walking)
I was supposed to have the operation late last year and then last month but the hospital had two other emergencies they had to take care of so they put me further down the list.
Brett told me that you had dropped around.
if you're ever up this way again i will make sure i catch up with you.

Cavey has made me a very generous offer, and I hope to enjoy his hospitality and machines in the near future  %$%

Hope you recover very fast Beaky.  It was a spur of the moment thing so arranging to meet others would have been pretty tough anyway but would have been great to meet you also

yeh, get up her AJ and EB, more visitors the better. Any member is welcome. Might have to talk Mark C into coming up as well.

If the weather is good, we can go paraflying or water skiing or something to enjoy the weather,then play lots of pins afterwards. Plus a drink ot two.

I could organise to get as many members from QLD to meet at the same time, and then there will be a whack of us.

I might post a date for a big QLD meet. Airfares are cheap and I can pick anyone up from the airport. Plenty of beds avail as well.

Stay tuned. I will organise something.

sounds like a plan.
I think you should set a date or find out when people are free so a date can be set + it will give me time to fine tune your pins Cavey
