I tend to avoid those places. Too many 'Holier than Thou' personalities.

... besides, I probably couldn't go without a smoke that long. :grin

This will be the first ever Sunday RTE I have ever attended. Looking fwd to the novelty. :thumbs

I suppose many of us worship in our own way.  Mine will be a toast to the god-of-the-amber-ale, although as I don't partake in alcohol when on the motorcycle (although I have been know to lapse), it'll be with a lemon squash.

Flag. Yes. I will put it in a safe place and turn alarms etc on so I dont rush out without it.

Good skills Garry.

Is there private parking available for those that have graduated from the mighty ST?
Don't want to leave the GT amongst the common folk!
Perhaps a separate table? Or pub? Or RTE even?

What a bunch of crazy people we hang out with!

Big event. Vic is certainly active... Must be the fun place! Wot thuh

Smart alecs can venture 450m (or so) down the road to the Meredith Hotel.

You'll probably find that closed, kaput, extinct, defunct, inactive, dormant, etc.. and then you'll back to the Royal to eat some humble pie.

Yeah, another country pub closed, add it to the list with Tolmie, Kevington, Skipton, Port Albert, the Club in Yarram, and I'm sure many, many more in recent years.

Looks like a warm day for Meredith on Sunday, 26 degrees forecast.  :like

I might need a couple of extra drink stops on the way.

Seems it depends on what weather report you read, Kev!
One I was looking at is saying top of 27c with 68% chance of rain...then another is saying 24c with 41% chance of rain...  :think1

My prediction is it will rain as I washed my bike tonight...  :whistle

That's only three different forecasts, ask on Facebook you'll get a different forecast with each response, some responses will suggest you go to Mansfield for lunch, or you should fly, try a submarine, take a monkey, even how to change a light bulb.
