Me Thinks It's Bloody Time For A NSW Cruise!!!

[Red Frog]

Right. That's it! These days I have to go to QLD for a cruise!!...which btw are damn well worth it (thanku ryan, gav & nate )....So I have decided, seeing as the Lastina is getting extremely toey, it's time to roll out the mid-year NSW cruise!!

<Insert WOOT! WOOT! WOOT! noises here>

If you're interested anytime in Aug/Sept and hav any suggestions of where to go, post away or forever hold your peace. Newbies! Lurkers! and i know there's quite a few of you, this is your chance to FINALLY meet the wonderful family of AGT.

I'm open to all suggestions, most dates and any hands to help organise it. Once we've got a number of ideas/dates, i'll make a poll and then an official thread. here's a few ideas to get you started....

Half-day/night cruises followed by: a night at the drive-in cinemas at Blacktown or Bass Hill, ten-pin bowling, dinner, kayaking (late sept), go-karting at Butterfly Farm (Windsor)....

Full-day cruises:
Sydney surrounds: Galston Gorge, Royal National Park/Bundeena (!!!), Bobbin Head NP, West Head NP/Cottage Pt/Akuna Bay/Church Pt (!!!!), Windsor, La Perouse, Botany Bay NP, Warragamba Dam.....

NSW: Wiseman's Ferry, Patonga (Central Coast), Blue mts (mmm a hot lunch & hot choccy!), Stanwell Tops, Cataract Dam, Wollongong, Kangaroo Valley, Newcastle, Hunter Valley (!!), Kiama, Jambaroo, Port Stephens/Nelson Bay....

Dust off the cobwebs and get ur creative, energetic brains into gear and start suggesting!

Sounds like a plan. Never been on an AGT cruise b4 =P. I work Sundays but if its far enough ahead i might be able to get it off

[Tom]

well i might be in, dependin on things!

[Red Frog]

kewlies! glad to see some interest!!
now start suggesting sum places! i'm more than happy to suggest a place, but it's a big wide state, so there mite be areas AGT has yet to discover....

[Beau]

id like go carting or jamberoo.. dunno if u guys have been recently, but jamberoos been done up a bit... Plus ive always wanted to dive there for the twisties..

And also, good on u redfrog for getting a cruise goin!

Im up for any date, the sooner the better in my opinion, but with the HSC n **** just around the corner, some weekends may be out of the question, but itd be a nice break anyhow.

Beau.

[MAztinA 323]

I get the pleasure of driving those twisties most mornings on my way to work

so you could say I know them pretty well hehe

[Sammy]

hey guys
brand new to the site. just registered cause i saw you were organising a nsw cruise
count me in. i'm driving a white 95 323 v6

also wanted to know if anyone else lived in or near campbelltown??

[Cincinnatus]

Ceudos for organising a cruise, never been on one, better pm rupe about those stickers. Count me as a very probable for late sept, will need at lease fortnight notice to free up the weekend.

[Red Frog]

SLIGHTLY OT:
YAHAHAHA! i could do the kermit dance, but it's a little too early to bring that out lol
yeah i need to get a sticker too, but want a BIG ole fat 1 that stretches across my windscreen, but noone seems to hav them nemore mind u, i need a mazda to put it on too

and rob!!! !! hello?! i have a l'astina, so of course the astra is allowed to come! we will refrain from trying not to "kick it"....or remind rselves of such canberra '04 events oh where's the emoticon that has a face about to puke? lol

okay guys and girls! so glad to hear the great response, esp. from newbies! love meeting newbies and brain washing them w/ my useless knowledge for hrs lol just j/k. i only do it to the oldies nowdays tehehe looking 4ward to seeing you DAVE & Janet!! i really should do those steak nites again, as i drive thru guildford everyday. ah i'm slack

CRUISE TOPIC:
now i'll figure out the general area where every1 lives (when i get a free chance) and then decide on a venue/location to set this cruise. i'm still really keen for a royal national park cruise, as this is still close to syd BUT central for any south-nswales-ers. there's an amazing bushwalk down at bundeena that i did w/ platypus a few yrs bak, that takes you right out onto the heads and the heath area. the views are +++++ so professional photographers, this one would b for you

otherwise.......suggest what YOU'D like to do, so i have a rough idea of where ppl are willing to travel to.

i'm also thinking i MAY push the cruise further into late sept/oct now bcos of warmer weather and more predictable sunshine. also i won't be so rushed about w/ work and wedding commitments lol

hmmm fark. the clock says 12.32am. wasn't i sposed to be in bed by 10pm? bugger. will chk bak later.
KEEP THROWING AROUND IDEAS!!! i really NEED to know what types of things you guys like doing ie. picnics/bbq/twisties/long or short drives/full or half day/1 destination or a multitude of them.

tutah for now!
luv Salty Cracks (gotta love Rove eh )

[Beau]

im willing to go anywhere really..
and just chuck the agt sticker on the laser.. who cares!

if i have plenty of notice, ill most likely be available any time too..

[Red Frog]

tehehe yeah but maybe there's an sp23 in the pipeline sumwhere in the next 12mths..........so that would be okay if i was thinking of at least buying a mazda, rite? lol

sounding kewl guys! when i gets meself organised during the week and miss lastina gets her alignment done 2moro, i will start getting around to preparing more finer details for this cruise. but this wkend has been full of work, baby showers, birthdays and ses courses, so hopefully during the wk i'll hav sum time to work out the cruise!

[Zooming Bravo]

RF....we should look at somewhere completely different. Maybe a drive to Lithgow or upto the Hunter Valley...just a thought.

[mazdamanik]

hunter valley good my backyard
