MWTS - Mudgee

[vidmar]

Accommodation booked, Russ and Deb are also in.
Anyone else up for this one?

Thinking about it

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Been a while , could be interested !!

 

[The Who]

YES, I'm interested.
I've just fired off an email to friends who have a holiday house in Mudgee asking if they will be up there on the 17th of April 2021. Hopefully they will be, even though they are disgruntled Bears supporters.

I'm in a group going up, we're making a long weekend of it and hitting up the wineries and the brewery on Friday.

Though from what I've heard there is not much accommodation left now, we got a decent hotel but booked only 6 hours after the draw came out.

Yep coming down from the Gold Coast for a long weekend as well. Booked an AirBnB about 2 weeks ago, accomodation was starting to get scarce. Also going to hit the wineries and brewery before hand.

 

[mave]

Booked, locked, and loaded .

 

[eagle66]

Booked a couple of weeks ago. Just told the wife, happy anniversary I said, wrong date she said. Oh well!

 

[ManlyArmy]

If you haven't booked already, I'd suggest doing so ASAP. Accommodation is slim pickings.

 

[The Who]

I'm in. My friends who have a holiday house at Mudgee have confirmed they were "happy" for me to invite myself up for the weekend.

We “ might” be a starter , possibly in the caravan but will be a late addition as we have grandchild number 5 due at the end of February and our daughter ( after a 10 year gap between her first two ) might be needing her mother to help a bit !!

Anyway we shall see.

Could be a blessing, we generally do alright when you are travelling in the caravan.

Thank you , this is the daughter who lost her husband 3 years ago to bowel cancer. He said right up to the end “ I don’t want you to be alone the rest of your life “ . To our surprise she found a guy who was prepared to take on 2 boys ( 12 & 10) and honestly he’s doing a great job with them so we are very happy.

An honest hard working country boy , only trouble is , he’s a bloody Sharks supporter!!

What an awesome feel-good outcome @Mark from Brisbane
As for him being a Sharkies supporter, if that's his only 'fault' it's not that bad....it could be a whole lot worse!!

That’s really nice to hear Mark.

The father-in-law has offered me the use of his Trakker van if we want to drive it from the GC to Mudgee. It’ll be me, the daughter and her "friend!". Yes they still think the old man doesn’t know what’s going on. But he is a huge Manly fan, so I’ll just play along with the "friend " bullshiit for now.
I’ve only driven it up to Brizzo and back, so I’m a bit nervous about driving all that way.....seriously, I’ve been in the family for 30 years....do they not know how much of a lunatic I am. I dont know how I ended up with such great in-laws.
Heres a pic of the beast.
