Yeah. I know it sounds like a recipe for disaster but in all fairness, my wife, her sister and I drove around the UK for 5 weeks years ago. More recently she joined us for a trip south as far as Merimbula (about 9 or 10 days. We often travel with our daughter. And the four of us will be going to Tassie later this year. :rofl:
So, all good fun.

Redlands is a City Rusty. :mrgreen: Capalaba is the north western extremity of it. Kerwick could live 20 or 30 ks away from there.

Rustynutz, is right, Trev. His comment was about who I replied to, not where they lived. I mistook Kerwick's avatar for beerman's.  :-[ :confused: :'(

I have confirmed with the hotel for 1230 on Sunday and downgraded the table to 15. We have 10 and may get a few more roll up maybe.

So heading back to the grand plan, might it be better to target a departure from the BP at 1000 bypass the Etamoogah pub and just drive straight up to Boreen Point?

Its easy enough to swing past the EP if needed or keep going if not.

Other suggestions? All options considered.

Enroute: http://goo.gl/maps/kHuYh

Its a very easy hour and a half to two hours drive from there.

How many are meeting at the BP?   Bling  (Kerwick) & Lubricious will be there by 10am. Might I suggest we meet at the far northern end of the car park near where the trucks pull up?

I also have a suggestion for a slightly different route that includes a couple of kms of dirt between Cooroy and Boreen Point. We can do a bit of rally driving along the way. :mrgreen:

Hi Keith, Sandy and I will travel from Maleny and we'd be happy to join the tour at the EP and trail along for the remainder of the trip.
Perhaps one beer together at the EP bar before we head off???

OK then departing BP @ 10 from the northern end, pit stop at EP (10-30-ish?) and then off to Boreen Pt, route to be decided on the day.

Keith, where are you travelling from in Brisbane?

We are northside and join the highway either at Boondall or Deagon depending on how I feel at the time.

Just so I am clear:

OK then departing BP @ 10 from the northern end, pit stop at EP (10-30-ish?) and then off to Boreen Pt, route to be decided on the day.
Keith, Kerwick & I are planning to arrive at the BP at 10am, have a catch up over a coffee and then head north.


Presume 1030-ish depart from there, meeting Russ at the EP (and anyone else who wants to meet here) , likely around 11am and then off to Boreen Point for lunch. Looking forward to catching up with you all.

I hope you gentlemen have spent the day applying a coat of polish so the I30's look their best.

Shame I couldn't bring the wagon along....
