Melbourne BBQ/Swap meet?

I am coming down to Melbourne for a week as my family down there is throwing me a party from my birthday. The first weekend is booked for obvious reasons, but the weekend of 19/20 May is free.

I'd love to meet up with some other forumites:please2: So does anyone want to hold a BBQ or something on that weekend? In QLD tradition, I'll bring down some door prizes.

What subsurb will you be in???

I'll be in Ivanhoe, but I have access to a car, and can drive to most suburbs.

Mernda is a nice place, not too far from Ivanhoe, and you can check out the Craporioum prior to the clearing sale too.

I have a portable BBQ, and pleeeenty of fire wood.

Al :2tsup:

I don't mind hosting a BBQ if no-one wants to be seen at the Craporioum :q :U and everyones up for a drive to East Warburton. Have a big block and plenty of space

Or mine, on the way to Phillip Island if the missus and kids want to see the penguins, superbikes and drunks............

Thanks for the offers guys.

Mernda is probably closer for me, but I also have to visit a friend out past Ringwood some time, so Warburton isn't so bad for me either. On the way to Philip Island is probably stretching my friendship with the car owner, so thanks for the offer Iain, but it looks like between Al and DJ.

I assume others would come, but if it's only me I can go to both :U , so any preferences?

Craporium for me.

Both Ivanhoe & Mernda are close enough so a bbq in Mernda sounds good
Keep us informed if any changes:2tsup:

Count me in provided it's on a Sunday, East Warburton would be my preference, but I also know the way to Mernda.:D

Sounds like I might get my fence after all. :wink:

G'day,

I can be there if it's Saturday. Sunday is out as it's my b/day so it's lunch at SIL's, who's son also has his b/day on the same day.

Dj's place on Saturday. :2tsup:

Im easy on both days, actually Im easy anytime. :B

Take a pick of days guys and let me know.

Al :2tsup:

I can't make it on either day, you'll just have to carry on without me. :U

Ok Al, looks like the Craporium is a winner, but thanks DJ.

As for what day, I'll add a poll to the thread.
