    Bummer, Today the company is sending me to Hong Kong (shenzhen), Seoul Korea, then on to Taipei Taiwan on the 3rd for two weeks for training and to meet some of our suppliers.... may have to take a camera
    So I will miss it, unless you do the Sat 2nd. I hope all goes well.

    OK, so if this is happening on Saturday the 2nd, I might, and it is only a might, make my way down.
    Sunrise on the beach, then up to the waterfalls, sounds awesome

    I would need to work out some accommodation, read very cheap accommodation, if I can do that, and I end up with no takers for the CQ day, then you might just see me

    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.

    I guess I'm in for sunrise at least, I dont know if there will be much happening at the Cooley Rocks festival, I think the main events are towards the end of the week and the following weekend ?
    I aim to try and get to the northern NSW meet on the Sunday at Lennox heads/Balina as well....maybe
    Cheers David.

    I was thinking that Cooly Rocks was on teh long weekend as well due to a customer telling me all about it...Never mind...Plenty more shows like that around...Greazefest is at Rocklea HERE August...I'm wanting to go to that.
    Who ever is around after breakfast can all decide what they all want to do

    I was wondering too.....maybe a local Currumbin person can give us a heads up at 4am to whether the weather is ok.

    Any takers?
