Cdr Zero Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Regretfully I've got to pull out of this one. I was really hoping I could make it but I lost my job just before Christmas and I can't really make any bookings until I've got the job/cash situation sorted. Sorry to the ACT boys. :-\ Maybe next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.A.R. Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Cdr Zero, that's unfortunate mate. Hopefully we'll see you at an event soon. Oh, & I may as well let the cat out of the bag - reason I'm being vocal about this trip is that... I'LL BE BACK FOR THIS TRIP!!! So come on you lot - book in now or I'll be abuseing you for not showing up!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surly_Z Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I'm all booked in, so you can confirm: Josh (Surly_Z) Anna Alex Shelly We're in a quad room, near the bar apparently - so only a short stumble home! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toecutter Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Goodo Lurch! Josh, Send me your e-mail address (and anybody else in the group that wants the updates) so I can add you to the mailing list just so we all keep on the same page re plans for the duration etc Just a reminder guys hand held CB raidios are a huge plus for these cruises. I can't emphasise enough how good it re communication between the cars. most of the regulars now have them I believe. Try nad borrow, beg or steal one if you don't. Cheers, Sulio Not sure if they're any good but 5 watters for $80.00, thats pretty cheap. You do need a 5 watta. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/BLACK-5W-UHF-FDC-CB-RADIO-FULL-RANGE-FREE-EARPIECE_W0QQitemZ200295605636QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_Electronics_Radio_Equipment?hash=item200295605636&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66%3A2%7C65%3A1%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
620Z Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 Good on you Josh & Lurch. Sulio you better update your confirmed list above. Josh I presume you will liase with Scott for the trip over. I think we might have a few people on holidays or off line who confirmed they were coming before. Their silence is defening. Ha Ha. I presume they might be back next week. 3 Vic & 2 ACT member's, 3 family and 6 or 7 cars from NSW. There will be more soon I am sure.

Surly_Z Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Hey Craig, can we update the list so that all definites are noted - it'd be good to keep track of numbers. Also, do any ACT guys have a spare set of CB radios i could borrow? It'll save me a few $$ buying new ones. Not too far away, I'm looking forward to it!

sco_aus Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I am actually just going to wire my 4wd CB in and replace my ariel with the CB antenna. In Tassie I had all sorts of comms problems, so i dont want that again... I do have an old style 4wd CB, but I dont think it works with the newer digital type.

Toecutter Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 well I bought this as a spare for a mate but he bought one the same day so if someone needs a 5 watt hand held CB you can have it for the price I got it for $82.00. Thats bargain pricing for a 5 watter. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=350148806465 anybody interested can fix me up on the day we leave.
