    Hi Pagie,

    I am in the "Bellbridge" Estate in Hoppers Crossing. It's the one with the big shed in the back yard with three 15 amp and three 10 amp circuits all on its own sub-board. You can't miss it.

    I will be sending the exact address to all the confirmed attendees the week before the event along with the secret password and handshake, in a PM.

    Cheers

    Doug
    I got sick of sitting around doing nothing - so I took up meditation.

    Just bumping this one up again since it is now less than four weeks until the big day.

    All things being well the new workbench should be nearing completion. See the progress here: https://www.woodworkforums.com/f213/o...h-build-216908 See it in real life at the GTG.

    Anyone else wanting to come along?

    Cheers

    Doug

    Thanks for the shameless bump Matt.

    I am still making progress on the bench but not as fast as I was hoping due to some family concerns eating into shed time, but I still try to do a bit each day. I will post an update soon in my bench build thread.

    Meanwhile any other starters for the day?

    Cheers

    Regrettably, I have to announce that we will need to postpone this open shed day.

    Jools's mum is having health issues which require us to commit a fair bit of time to looking after her and getting her to medical appointments and hospital commitments.

    We now have other commitments on the day which naturally take precedence over the open shed day.

    We will make a definite date to hold the rescheduled event soon, but it will probably be in February.

    Matt (Simplicity) has an open shed day in November, everyone is always overcommitted in December and Dave TTC has an event in January so February is looking good for mine.

    Apologies to anyone who has given up something else to attend next Sunday but the upside is that others who were not available for the original date may be able to attend on the new date.

    Apologies for the inconvenience.

    Thanks for your understanding

    Doug

    After much discussion among the family and with a few of the potential attendees at our GTG we have decided to give the 2017 event a miss as things have not settled down with family health issues as yet.

    So with 2017 out of the equation, we are announcing the date of our 2018 GTG - Sunday 14 October 2018. Mark it in your calendars!

    Cheers
