Just a reminder that Gloomy Samurai has a couple of spots available in his cabin for $25ea if you plan on making a weekend of it and not wanting to pitch a tent

[shortie]

This should be a good weekend

[tomca]

Nickers and Maxi are coming along, and he reckons he has first dibbs for tubing Saturday!

Henry from Obsession fishing will be giving me a couple of Nordic Stage Favourite rods to bring along for people to try out. These won't be available to purchase until the end of the year so once you have had a look, let Santa know if you want one in your stocking.

[Angus]

Sounding good. Back from my big trip and there is nothing I think that will prevent me from being there! Will try and twist Do$tylz arm as well and tow his boat out.

Angus

[tomca]

Don't bother with Do-boy, he's a little nancy. Just take his boat anyway

[T Fisher]

My camp site is book. Lake camp fire has been informed that there will be a few of us camping friday and saturdaythat weekend.

When you book tell Mick you are joining shorties/richards/afo Group.

And as a bonus there are now toilets down close to the water instead of having to go back up to the kiosk.

[Zim man]

good news that there are toilets now down the bottom.

I have just booked by campsite for myself and 3 mates.

[shortie]

Thanks Dassa I will wait to hear from you then.

Oh and I supose I better say I am going to attend this social too Tom. I will send thruogh payment on the weekend.

[tomca]

By my count, including wives and kids there will be over 30 people for the sausage sizzle Sunday. Looks like it will be a good turn out. If the bluuurbon and homebrew make an appearance, some of those 30 might be out of bed just in time for lunch

[shortie]

when is high tide that weekend.

whenever Dassa goes for a swim

[tomca]

low tide is whenever Ted fills my boat with his outboards roostertail

[tomca]

OK folks this is looking like a good one.

Plenty of people have paid so we know there will be a good turn out already, just remember if you do want a feed on Sunday to get your money in so we can cater for the numbers that do turn up.

For the lucky draws,

So far we have a few lure packs, a subscription to Bush and Beach magazine, beanie, hat and brag mat, all courtesy from Ben at the magazine.

A friend of mine has generously tied and donated a five pack of bass flies.

There will be a few more things added to the list as soon as I harass some of the other guys who have indicated they will donate something the last time I made a pest of myself for the cause.

[tomca]

Bump for Eug.

I'm sure we can find a spot for you. My boat will be there to use while I am off doing a sneaky creek fish

[Eug]
