[Mayor of Mildura]

I would think Friday night would be the better bet. Saturday doesn't leave a lot of time....

Maybe even Thursday hahaha

My experience is getting there Friday afternoon/evening makes for a more enjoyable weekend.

 

[husky]

Is there a date for this?
Im keen on attending and the bus idea. If previous bus tours are anything to go by i rekon the trip up will be half the fun.

 

[idzy]

Who's interested in getting the bus from Melbourne to Mildura! I'll start looking into it. What do you all reckon, leave Saturday morning come home Sunday morning once everything is cleaned up etc. Pick ups on the way not out of the question as long as your dropped off by someone else and picked up, somewhere along the main route we would be taking anyway.

I'm thinking, even if we miraculously have everything packed and leave by 6am Saturday morning that would still mean not getting to Mildura before 1pm. That's not good. Friday night departure? Suggestions?

Sounds like a great idea. Would be good to get one with a tow hitch, as I am assuming we will be taking gear up too. Definitely need to depart on the Friday to arrive Friday night, otherwise it will be very difficult to get everything done.

Usually the first or second weekend of July is best. So good options are:

• 1st, 2nd, and 3rd July
• 7th, 8th, and 9th July
• 14th, 15th, and 16th July

MoM and AwesomeFury are probably best placed to determine their availability, as we will need them to attend :icon_chickcheers:

Yeah bus and trailer for sure Idz. The more I think about it the more I reckon Friday lunchtime at the latest for departure. Hopefully we can get enough numbers. And hopefully enough lucky enough to be able to get Friday off work. There's a local bloke from Kinglake who has an old school bus which is unreal for this sort of thing, piss funnel and hose out the door style Might be an option too.

Lol! Too good to miss

 

[Mardoo]

Better get on the bus. Don't want to be following behind!

 

[awesomefury]

[DJ_L3ThAL]

I thought there was a "one for the host" number taken from the 24 nowadays? Could be wrong...

 

[technobabble66]

Certainly is.
However ... with 24 swappers you offer 24 beers - 23 to the other swappers and the 24th goes to the host. Makes the list 24 long.
[emoji1]


Though in this case there might be 2 hosts (?) so maybe DJ is correct after all - we need the 23rd & the 24th to go to the hosts.

 

[awesomefury]

I would have thought from previous experience there is more than enough left over swap beers, and that should cover MoM and me. Plus we are both in the swap anyway.

 

[Yob]

I'd suggest leaving on the Thursday for Echuca.. Thirsty Thursday boozeup at bandicoot to break the trip up, that way we could get there at a reasonable time on the Friday

 

[Nullnvoid]

We have another 6 months, I reckon by the end we will be leaving on Monday, doing a craft beer crawl and then returning on the following Wednesday
