We checked out the Toora Hotel today.  :thumbs

Here are some pics of the food we had...

(https://i.ibb.co/L8RQxKb/Toora-Hotel-1.jpg)
Roast Pork & Veggies

(https://i.ibb.co/2gGyrgh/Toora-Hotel-2.jpg)
Famous Toora Pub Icecream Cake

(https://i.ibb.co/Kj1cb57/Toora-Hotel-3.jpg)
Sticky Date Pudding

The food was excellent as far as we were concerned.
Prices were fairly typical of pubs these days, for example the roast was $26.00 for a full serve, $22.00 for a half serve.
Desserts were $12.00... :eat

For those that need overnight accommodation, the hotel has rooms available...  :thumbsup
I believe they have 3 double rooms and 8-9 single rooms.
Prices are roughly $65-$70 for a single, $80 for a double...

If you want something a bit better, there's the local caravan park which has cabins or there's the local Motel.

So it looks like we'll have:
Now at 11, but room to add more.

And of course, this is COVID gathering and travel restrictions being lifted.  A final call on the RTE proceeding, or not, can be made as late as around 8:00pm Friday 23 July.

Neil & Val could be starters for this one.
Both the SA & NSW borders slammed shut as we were approaching Mildura so we pulled the pin there and start taking a scenic route back to Avonsleigh.
Whilst overnighting with our friends here at Elphinstone the Vic lockdown kicked in so we decide to stay on  here  we, both managed to get our 2nd jabs at Castlemaine Hospital and have been kept real busy assisting our friends with repainting their family room, installed a new range hood and getting the kitchen ready for a full paint job too. Thinking we’ll need another holiday by the time we do get home !!!
Anyway will follow the forum and keep an eye on the Vic lockdown stuff, who knows, could see you all at Toora.
Cheers

In the event that it cannot proceed as planned, the easiest thing to do (well, for me anyway) is for Toora to replace one of these:

New date for this RTE is Saturday 11 September 2021, thread title updated, messages exchanged with Kym at the Royal Standard Hotel, we are now pencilled in the diary for 11/09.  All we need to do now is to is keep our fingers crossed and hope that COVID doesn't get in the way again, and for you to indicate if you can attend.

Current COVID situation and restrictions will need to improve quite bit, but this is 23 sleeps away, so I reckon we'll be okay.  If COVID restrictions aren't lifted, this can be easily cancelled, or postponed (again).
