Exclamation Brisbane Saturday 20th Dec 2003

We will be holding the 2nd Annual Breakky Creek Hotel PPRuNe Bash on Saturday the 20th of December 2003.

Last year was great, but this year already is promising a larger turnout, with guests attending from distant lands!!

If you think you've got what it takes to uphold youself in such highly regarded company then you should definately come along for a bit of Christmas Cheer!

Please send me an email at

[email protected]

I will swap my mobile number and fill you in on starting time etc...

Definite starters include;

OzExpat
maflsc
Birdstrike
Mr Birdstrike
Ozpax1 all the way from some other country
Disco Stu
And o'course yours truly

There have been quite a few who've offered keen interest, rosters allowing.


Look forward to hearing from those interested, and seeing you there on the 20th

Wirraway we'd love to see you in attendance again with the delectable Missus


Oh yeah.......Merry Fat Fella everyone!

Devil Will History Repeat Itself?

I've been struck by the thought that, once again, there will be a Prooner arriving from Pomgolia. In common with last year, the latest Prooner will arrive some time in advance of the Bash. Now, I'm not usually very concerned by such coincidences but, well, we ALLLL know what happened last year...

If it happens again this year, we'll be on a hat-trick next year!

It would be nice to catch up with the mysterious TV too. Don't worry about yer lappy, I'm sure that, between GG and me (and perhaps even OP1), we'll have enuf of em!

Sheepy... that's gotta be the worst excuse I ever heard! Forget the personal problems - ya still got heaps of time to get to Brissy!

Cool

Whereever ten or more PPRooners are gathered, there's bound to be something requiring moderating!!!

Especially if OzExpat & Co decides to attend!

Talking You've been a Modbod for HOW LONG?

Oh Woomera, maaate, you should know by now that even just two Aussies are more than enuf to need moderating! For TEN, we need need the whole Woomera Team!

Thanks for that Seco, I just hope we don't destroy the place... I looked in there last year and thought it was a bit too upper crust for our mob! I assume that you are the so-called anonymous one to whom GG referred?

The group will include a couple of people with diverse flying experience. A few people in the group who have worked in non-pilot jobs in airlines too. And, of course, everyone in the group knows how to drink...

The only topic that'll be banned for the night is... '89...

GG, as a new Queenslander now living on the Sunshine Coast, I would LOVE to attend!

Will have to consult with Mrs Zarg and advise!

If OxExpat brings his mates you'll need the Police Riot Squad - not a team of Woomeri!

Will I? Won't I? Will I? Won't I? Please, I've been good all year.

Anyone going to be sober enough to drive me home? (It's only 497 kilometers!)

Zarg, welcome to God's Own State. Still in the same line of business?

Talking

As much as I'd lurve to be there to catch up with you all, the Boss has told me that if I want any more hols this year they'll have to be without pay ...please accept my apologies.

Returning from the Gold Coast at the end of last month, I found that not only was I up for repairs to my digital camera (trying to walk through a glass door with the lens extended, was NOT good for it!), but that my computer had shat itself as well - not the power supply, nor the HD - so this is the first post using the new setup. Hopefully the camera will be back in another week or so, and I can then post those pics of the G.C. Bash (which didn't come close to last year's Melbourne do.)

Being close to Xmas, have a turkey (or 3) for me, GG will ya!

Is Wiz coming again to this one?

Now there's a thought! I reckon that wiz should be a starter for this one coz he's been pretty quiet of late... However, the Police Riot Squad would be totally inadequate to the task if wiz turns up!

Mrs Wirraway and I look forward to the 2nd brekkie bash, I'm
sure with Gogirl organising it, it will actually happen, unlike
the recent Gold Coast no show.

Hey Torres, ask me nice & offer some coin for avgas & I'll give you a lift down on Sat, back Sun AM, Aztruck Express.

GG, I'm committed for most of Sat PM but I'll try for a brief show (NOT a show of briefs).

Wow! Look what the cat's dragged in.....all those 'old' PPRuNe bods that I thought were loooooooong lost to another time and place!

Voice, terrific to 'see' you maaaaaaaaate!
You gotta get yer behind down here someday soon, so why not the 20th eh???

Gooney.....ready for another Oz BBQ and dip in the ocean?
It'd be great to see you again, any plans in the near future?

Sheepy - pathetic, really pathetic, couldn't you come up with a better excuse?

Gaunty, first off, congrats to yourself, Mrs Gaunty and number 1 Gauntlette!
I guess you can be forgiven - just this once

Seco, again, thanks for all of your efforts, and a word from the semi-wise.....it's not what they do, it's how in the bloody hell they can get away with it

Team Woomera; c'mon you slack bunch! At least one of you can surely have your arm twisted

Oh far out, Zarg we could be neighbours; Disco and I now reside in CDR too....scary eh

Bloody shocking place to call home too

Torres you now have the means, get your arse down here!!!!! You'll be sowwwweeeeeee!

KM please keep my rep intact....DON'T POST ANY PICS OF ME TRASHED IN YOUR APARTMENT!
Otherwise I will tell everyone your deepest and darkest secrets

Jamair; the more briefs the better IMHO....bring em on!!!!!!!!!
You will regret not putting aside the entire evening for this, but I guess we should be happy with what you cane give us!

As for the 'riot squad', well, I'm working on him, but it all depends if the missus gives him a leave pass.
(I'm sure he'll bloody turn up now!!!!)

Oh yeah, aparently we might have a guest from Vietnam; dirty, filthy bugga he is, but my lips are sealed!

Go you good thing!!
