That's great, Chris,  I look forward to meeting Jan at long last, now just waiting to hear back from Col 'Pussasan' Kelson to confirm Ray Finlay's attendance at both events so I can increase the bookings...  pussasan wrote: Doug Green informs me that he and Brenda are booked in for the weekend, and Ray Finlay is joining us this year. Cheers. Hippy Chippy wrote:  Thanks for the 'heads-up' Col, I've tentatively added all three of them to the 'Confirmed' list  below, but I haven't updated our bookings as yet, can you please confirm that all three are 'definites', Col, and is Ray Finlay on his own, or with a Partner (if so, name please...) and get back to me... Ta. Col...?

I almost had Anne convinced to go again this year. However, she has only enough time on the books to take off four days. While attending is still a tempting thought, I was told that spending those four days in the air just to spend the weekend in Sydney is not something she is going to do.
Anne also said I wasn't going without her. I suppose that she feels I need someone to keep an eye on me after the last time I traveled somewhere without her. For some reason she thinks that 19 stitches, a concussion, mild TBI, two eye surgeries and a rebuilt eye is too high a cost for a decent time. Yes, I did get pictures.
Have a great time.

We will, Fred. It's a pity you won't be there but we promise to raise a glass - or two - in your honour. Seeing as there's been no objections to date, The Basin Trials (Friday 1st November 2019) will commence at 1200 or thereabouts at the Frisco, and will continue until we get sick of the place and move to somewhere else. Shep and I will be there at the start and, seeing as his missus and my missus are going to 'a show' that night, we may be around the 'Loo until quite late. Or at least until one of us (usually me) falls over.

I have actually been in Sydney for the last week or so and hoping for a miracle to take place that would allow me to attend this years run but alas, the miracle gods refuse to play the game, so I will be heading back home next monday.
