Will be off to Adelaide in the week before Xmas to visit with a mate who had a triple bypass just 2 weeks ago, then north to Morgan to visit friends (Mine hosts at the Commercial Hotel) and home again. (1400km return)
Had a phonecall this morning that I have to be in Bairnsdale mid January (1400km return) for a get together with some friends who will be visiting from Townsville, (and a wedding invite later in the year in Brisbane.)
Invitation to visit friends near Newcastle in first week of March, (1360k) and friends at Port Macquarie is just up the highway a bit (240k)... perfect timing for the short run to Toowoomba (640k) (2240km return), should be a good couple weeks of travelling, catching up with old friends, and meeting new ones.
