I’m going to have to pull out because of back and neck injuries sustained while skiing at the end of last week.

I was so looking forward to catching up with you all! Have a good time and a beer or three for me.

I will reluctantly consume your quota 

May your recovery be swift and the medical bills be minimal

As they say, 'you are what you eat'. If you're going to be eating ACT pie, ergo you must be the honorary ACT representative...

All the best STroppy, I hope the recovery is swift and as pain free as possible

It's right next door on the "city" side of the caravan park

I figured I hadn't been paying attention somewhere along the way.

[Cerebral Knievel]

In the cabin furthest away from MISA.....luckily i could do with the exercise

[Scarlett Thunderbolt]

For anyone not sure of the location of MISA (Mackay Indoor Sports Arena), in the image above, it's the big white building behind the trees at the back, right next door to the BIG4, and a massive 50m stumble home after the rally dinner. You don't even have to go out the gate, you can just walk straight through.

Well, you did all ask for a dinner venue really close by...

Cheers,
John & Kate

Update to NatRally Info Toolkit

Cheapest Fuel Update
 …. the cheapest fuel in Mackay is available from Mobil, Slade Point, at [https://goo.gl/maps/cu9VujeGKdn]320 Slade Point Rd, Slade Point[/url]… yep, it’s fairly close to the Big4… This is a Mobil Handy Mart Servo… Opening Hours 5am – 9pm… 5 cents/litre cheaper than the previous mentioned Pacific Petroleum unmanned Servo…
Tonight’s Pacific to (Mobil) price comparison is – ULP91 149.9 (145.9), PULP95 159.9 (156.9), DIESEL 149.9 (144.9).

STeed Parts!!
We have just learned from a conversation today that there are an ST1300 and an ST1100 in Mackay for parts wrecking…. We will endeavour to investigate and get some photos in the next few days…
 
Cheers,
John & Kate

Think of it as inducement to save up for Tassie 2019.

[Shillas]

Will be in Tassie next year. And in Mackay in October this year. Just bad timing a conference I'm booking in for is  too late.
