    Seeing that I live in the Gold Coast Hinterland I'm coming to your party William. Thinking cap is on. I take it it's either the 2nd or the 3rd and not a two day event?

    My suggestion is afternoon surfing lessons from Bill. Followed by a bon fire and all night drinkies on the beach. Come on people when was the last time you woke up hung over on a beach somewhere.
    Or maybe Currumbin Bird Sanctuary ?

    Speaking to Bill this afternoon and we would like suggestions of where everyone would like to hold our meet.

    A few suggestions to start it off:

    Currumbin
    Duranbah
    The Sand Pumping Jetty/ The Spit
    Fingal
    Hinterland
    Waterfalls


    Please post your thoughts on where you would like to go so we can work out what we are going to do

    Good idea. I think June 2nd is better as it is a Saturday.

    And after the beach sunrise we can go toCoolangatta and capture images from the Cooly Rocks On festival - vintage cars, people in 1950s era clothing, dancing etc. I missed it last year and am going tot he NSW Ballina meet up on Sunday but this sounds a good opportunity to have a gecko this year.

    Mark Chap you are welcome to the sofa bed for Friday noght but it is committed for Saturday night, but if you have bedding I can scratch up a mattress on the floor for you.

    As a Gold Coaster i would love to come. Perhaps as suggested an early shoot followed by break
    fast - maybe we can go to Kirra / Currumbin and book breakfast at Kirra SLSC, it's right on the sea.

    I like that idea A LOT.... Count me in..It's been ages since I've seen half you guys.
    Saturday would suit be better too. 2nd June...It's in my diary!!! Yayy
    If it happens to be Sunday though...I'm cool with either.
