Yes But I put down goals about using Dawn French as a cave troll break down chocolate-orange-reinforced defense and being able to link contact staff moves... Doesn't mean I'm being realistic does it?

I had a dream last night that I was going to this... although I had to pick up my laundry from Market Dreyton on the way... hmmm there must be a hidden meaning in there somewhere

there's nothing quite as fulfilling as a tasty airwrap

Indeed, late September would be convenient for Oz holidays (though not for Northern Hemisphere ones) But a major reason against it is the clash with Common Ground a terrific HoP community event that happens in South Australia at that time. From a few pages ago:

This inaugral OzJC will be in Brisbane, probably in late August/early Sept. That way we can finish with giant Fireworks on the River kindly laid on by the City Council! Unfortunately this is not in school holidays... having it in the Sept hols would be a clash with Common Ground. Also in August I will be able to get at least one certain International Superstar Guest Dude to visit our shores

Does CG have a confirmed date yet for this year?

Josh?


->off to pm

Contact without dance is like sex without wiggling.
A) it does feel as good
B) it does not look as good on film

oi! look at the next thread on the list silly!

err. duh

Ah, well , seeing the thread is bumped.. I'll give an update...

I am just applying for some funding and doing some other negotiations that would ease entry charges and upgrade the event wonderfully... if they don't come off, we'll have the usual self funded smallish event with it's own form of yumminess...



Also I have heard from a chap in Melbs who is thinking of having an event there in September... at the time I decided not to have it due to being close to CG... so let's not call it a clash, let's call it a circuit!



btw that our household communicates by posting on HoP

hiya gabe! good luck with the funding & stuff!!

not sure i'll be able to make it this year (i think my shins just shuddered remembering how sore they were after last year! ) but if you need an extra pair of hands or a driver or something just let me know!!

do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and good to eat!

if at first you do succeed, try not to look too astonished!

smile! it confuses people!

Ooo... Hopefully this falls around the same time as Uni holidays

I'd love to come to this!

I wanted to go last year, but couldnt because of school... ><
