As you can see, this was signed by none other than Fallout's nemesis "Falloot"... He's a real evil character that Falloot, he had us all fooled...

I DENY IT ALL! No comment at present your honour..
Sorry i am currently unable to recall those details~~~~ *Ahem*,,
*puts hand over camera*

*blink*

fallout has a nemesis?

Dear god! Who have I been living with for all this time??

*frightened*

hey Josh or Ben does the hall have boliing water facilities? or a mircowave? just wondering for warming bottles up...

.:*giggles at cuteness of mummy question*:.

I'll be taking along a small gas cooker type thing, and i'm sure i can get a saucepan of some description, so that'll be there if needed.

yep there will be boiling water facilities

hooray hooray hooray!!!

and taj said *fanks* too!

And another one to add to the list, My flights are booked, and I am coming to Adelaide, and I am chucking a Big Kev about it -
I'm EXCITED!

Ok, so most of you don't know me, except the other perth peoples of course, and Ben and Lex. But I have just read all 26 pages of this humungous thread so I at least feel like I know y'all!
Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Just a suggestion, it would be great if any of the locals had a portable gas BBQ to bring along, I don't think qantas will like me bringing mine as excess baggage somehow! And if there is a BBQ available, I will attempt a personal best, mega pancake cook-up on Sunday morning for as many people as I can possibly feed.
mmm. Pancakes.

Mojojo does awesome banana pancakes!!!

i've heard of these great pancakes, will have to try them

Im workign on the BBQ. Im 95% sure my Dad will let me borrow his

mmm... pancakes...



edit:

oh... and on the topic of food (i'm really interested in this whole food thing, incase noone had noticed... i like eating...) can i presume small cooking fires are permitted? i mean... with the ammount of fire around anyways...

mmm... i'm just asking lots of silly questions in an attempt to be organised cuz i don't wanna have to drive all the way back across the city to get stuff...

*poke* just a little reminder for all you guys who're wanting hoppity badges:

Written by: Badges

---

I'm currently making the badges for the Common Ground meet in Adelaide, and require everybody's details to allow printing before then.

This means I'll need everyone to send me exactly what they want to have on their badge so that there are no mistakes in spelling, preferences, etc.

Please send me these details:

Real Name:
Hop Name:
Background colour preference:

Avatars are pretty much the right size and everything as they are, unless you'd like to send a better quality, though keep in mind they have to be relatively small. Also, those with either animated avatars or no avatar, let me know what you'd like.

here's a little preview

Getting everyone's details and preferences in advance ensures for better organisation, which makes everything run smoothly, which applies to everything really

Cheers, Lou

i'll have:

2x 4 person tents. you can fit 4 people in them, though not much else. recommend max of three + gear
