Blue Mountains FGT #7 - Sunday 20th Nov - All welcome

[Sawdust Maker]

...

If anyone needs the address then send me a PM.

If he sends you to 371 Bumbaldry St, Koorawatha, it's hint that he doesn't like you

[Bushmiller]

All this talk of culinary delights, hermetically sealed environments and high end sale items has got me thinking that maybe there is a dress code too. What would be acceptable. I went looking.

Perhaps Wollybugger will arrive like this:

Then I spotted this Garrat Wade tool for Simplicity:

Then this for FenceFurniture:

but not too much on dress sense although it may be that we are doing it all wrong if this picture is to be believed:

See you all on Sunday.

Unfortunately I don't think I am going to be able to make it, I woke up this morning with a cold and feeling pretty crook. Do I need a doctor's certificate?

Guys, sorry to hear this.

But Chris, you're my main under-house guy - or is that the real reason eh?

What with Dave not coming either.......it's starting to look like the under-house duties will fall to ozhunter, Glider, and Pat.

Lemon Ricotta Cakes (Lola) cooked and cooling, and looking good. Sue is bringing a Sticky Date Pudding, so we got some Scream.

Shed nearly tidy again, semi dusted down (or maybe up?), and there may be a prize for the person who can present me with a teaspoon of dust from within the shed and without opening up machines or unscrewing wall boards etc.

Tarp is up, tables are out, chez in place.

Looks like tomorrow will be a bit of a bludge.

Looks like the Simplicity itinerary has created a precedent: A travelogue leading up to the GTG. Oh well, here is my bit all loaded up but not yet tied down and nearly ready for the first leg.

The buckets do take up a bit of space and they are not all there yet. I have to call in to work on the way through and pick up the last thirteen. It looks as though it is all good Christos and you should have your ten too.

A few more bits to put on yet and a bag of clothes and I am all done. Luckily SWMBO has other commitments and is unable to attend. This is just as well as I don't know if her endurance is up to hanging onto the tray for 600Km.

This will be my last communication before seeing you all on Sunday as my level of technology is not up to that of Simplicity. In fact, my mobile is SWMBO's mobile, which she is lending me for the trip. I suspect it has a tracking device
