Interested in attending:
  • Russell & Sue
  • Helen & Michael - if we can get a caravan site at the CP, will try tomorrow.

Re. the CP, I see that there is a two night minimum for cabins (see link below).  When I'm checking on a caravan site I'll check to see if they'll waiver this requirement if there's a chance this means thet could be missing out on a number of bookings.  If anyone one or couple is interested in a cabin for the Saturday night, post your needs and / or wishes.

I was looking at the same place but will wait to see if Michael can work his magic 🪄 and get us a night in the CP instead so we can all be together… otherwise will book at the place you put up

Will need to know who else will need my magic, ie. prefer a CP cabin for just the one night.

    Me thinks you need to give up on "quotes", Garry... lol
    There's obviously something "skewwhiff" with your browser settings or something...  :think1

    Probably easier to just add your name... :grin


    By the way, it will be nice to catch up with you guys as well... :thumb

    "Quotes" are always an issue.

    BTW, I won't be attending unfortunately.

    Are you sure? 
    After all the riding you've done recently a ride to Clunes would be a breeze...
