Lotsa food options.

Can't commit at this stage Michael as I'm still getting occasional double vision after my eye surgery so not driving (or riding) at the moment.
I'm scheduled to have my left eye done a few days after the next RTE so hopefully my vision will then be back to normal but in the mean time I just have to wait and see (no pun intended) how things pan out with my current vision.

I have my fingers crossed...  :X

See ya there..
Sorry all, have to pull out of this one. Have some domestic issues to take care of.
At this stage probably out for December as well.
Tenants move out soon, and there are some building maintainence issues that will take up at least 2 weekends over December. More later, take care all.

Just called the Corner Hotel and confirmed tomorrow's lunch booking (for Michael from OzSTOC) for 15.  See youse around 12:00 noon.   Helen and I have a few chores early tomorrow, won't be leaving until around 10:30am, but should be there on time.

Talked to a guy from our Friday push and eBike group this AM.  He said Melba Highway is more pot holes than not, be careful out there.

Just a footnote. Went to Rushworth last weekend, Yarra Glen closed, had to go thru Healsville and the spur.
No issues at all that way and you land in Alex.

Take Care.

For those going tomorrow it might be a good idea to check out what other roads are closed... https://traffic.vicroads.vic.gov.au/

Sue & I have had to change the way we normally go as the Cockatoo to Woori Yallock Road is closed so it's looking like we'll have to head to Gembrook, then on to Launching Place and then to Healesville...  :think1

This RTE ended up a fairly quiet affair as the biggest trouble makers (Michael & Nigel) were unable to attend...  :popcorn

The weather held up for the trip there & back so that was a nice surprise which had me wishing Sue & I had travelled by motorcycle instead of the car...oh well, hopefully next time!  :o

The food (& company) were good so all in all a very pleasant couple of hours...  :clap

Unfortunately the photographer was a bit slack so this is the only photo he took...
