I meant the cooking didnt happen.

Its a conundrum,come / not come as i dont have anything to sell/ deliver to Tony so as his official GTG enabler i am not sure what to do.

I think you should come. I need to sort out my Christmas shopping list

**Skew ChiDAMN!!** · 1st November 2013, 02:08 PM

It's tomorrow already? Where does time go?

We'll be there...

**NCArcher** · 1st November 2013, 04:49 PM

Not quite Skew, but you should come over on Saturday anyway. No particular reason (cough...free labour..cough)

I was a little sheepish about posting this so I did run it past Brett first and he was comfortable with it. As he mentioned in a previous post there will be items for sale and I have a few that can be seen in the pic below. Some items are brand new, some have been only very lightly used and the augers are positively old

.

I didn't think it was appropriate to go into too much detail which could be seen as turning the thread into a bargain basement affair and also risk incurring the wrath of the moderators. Everything will be priced on the day and anybody is welcome to send me a PM if they are particularly interested in anything. That assumes your eyes are good enough to pick out the goodies.

Also I have cut some timber and will have pen blanks, knife scales and knife blocks (for knife handles) available for sale.

They won't be the horrible jumble you see above, but grouped in small lots at spare change prices. Any money from the sale of timber parts will go to a local (to the Blue Mountains) Bush Fire Brigade as I think anybody who has followed this thread will be aware of the huge task it is to combat a fire raging out of control. Dave and others do a magnificent job and it seems fitting to help a little.

We will be setting off tomorrow morning around 0700 and won't be easily contactable from then onwards so any enquiries will need to be made before then. I will have a last squiz just before I leave.

Looking forward to meeting up again with old friends and maybe some new faces too

.

Until then:

Regards
Paul

G'day Paul,
There are a few good looking items in that lot for sale.....
I'll have to bring some folding stuff and my negotiation skills.....
Best up the hill early to get an early pick....
Looking forward to catching up Paul, drive safe.
cheers, crowie

Spose I'd better buy a bit of wood - especially if it's for the fireys

**FenceFurniture** · 3rd November 2013, 08:47 AM

Perfect weather today.

May be next time.

Saw Hughie yesterday and thought of popping round but did not have your contact details on me.

We'll have a good time and post all about it

Dam I forgot my hat. A rare site to see me naked

Some of those blanks may do the trick

Hughie knows where n how to get here and you drove right past regardless.

I could have returned the favour of wood blanks.

**DaveTTC** · 3rd November 2013, 05:03 PM

Great day. Worth the 1200 km round trip. I did not take any picks but hopefully others did

THANK YOU BRETT & LOLA FOR ANOTHER TOP GATHERING....
Your hospitality was, again, superb especially the dessert and the chocolates...
I enjoyed the day this time being able to sit a talk/get to know a few of the forum blokes as well as catch up with some old mates...
The shop bought lunch was good and thank you Brett & Lola for the rice....
Special mention to the "sparky" on the spot who got the electrics back working again...
We needed the light to see Brett's new shed floor but this time some of us actually saw "sawdust" on it; BUT it was quickly swept away...
This time, there was a good number of ladies [good lookin Sheila's as Lola & I discussed...lol]...
The buy & sell table seemed to be a good trade; as did Paul's {bushmillers] pen blanks, with those processes going to the RFS.
I hope enjoy one got home safely after such an enjoyable day; Total Fire Ban included..
Cheers, crowie

PS - There was even "honey" for sale thanks to, I think, Chris....
PSS - To Skew, I hope your good lady is better...We missed her....
PSSS - Sorry I didn't do a head count, but at times there seemed to be a whole heap of people standing & sitting all enjoying a good chat...
