Owing to the popularity of the former Sydney mini meet it has been suggested that we have one in The Newcastle Region. :o
Not to be outdone; a suggested site is the BELMONT 16FT SAILING CLUB on beautiful Lake Macquarie. ;D.....People will be envious... ;)
This would be on a Saturday and for Lunch and afters. Both sides of the RCtr's are welcome, no not the cranky and the nice side, the OH's that slave patiently away while we just finish this post. ::)
We will even take members from the Central Coast, Upper Hunter, Coalfields and if we so pleasure possibly even Sydneysiders. :P
Will leave it open to suggestions for a date but mid to late June is a starter. ???
Anyone interested. 8)
Neil
-
Sounds good Neil :)
If you permit sydneysiders then I'm keen. :) And mid to late June sounds good.
cheers,
Ros

Hi
Will try to make it this time. the 16's is in a great location, bus past the door or a short walk from Belmont. Buses to Belmont leave the bus stop opposite Newcastle Station every I/2 hour, 349, 350.
Muss

Umm so far it is,
Neil, Muss, Ros, Bozzle, JM, Tiki, Trish
Maybe a GOER ;D I am positive everyone will enjoy themselves.

Sounds Great to me 22nd 29th June works great with me but don't base it around me ;D Muss will give you a lift if you like.
thanks Neil for organising
-
Looking good :)
Any more Sydney siders want to come to the bestest district in all of NSW .... stretches from "our" side of the Hawkesbury up to say Bulahdelah .... And NO, I am not leading with my chin, I am simply expressing my opinion ;D The bestest, very bestest and that's just the way it is.
Unless I have a sudden family commitment, OH and JM are coming either 22 or 29, which ever suits. Anyone needing a lift from around Swansea, please PM me.
Cheers, JM

Oh how I wish I was visiting this Summer.
It's pure nostalgia........ my OH and I met an old Australian guy and his wife in Spain some years ago and they came from Belmont, Newcastle, Australia. They were delightful and visited us in England some years later.
He had been a Spitfire pilot during WW2, flying for the Royal Australian Air Force, and had been shot down in Belgium, passed down the Comet Line to Spain and eventually released. What a fantastic story! :)
They invited us to visit but at the time we were both working fulll time and it wasn't the right time.
Sadly they have now both pased away. :'(
MOTTO:
CARPE DIEM
Hope you have a good Meet. :D
Judy
-
I would love to come. Count me in :)
-
Possibly me too ;D
-
Your names are on the List Tiki and Trish. ;D
Judy, pity you cannot make it, but should you or any of our compatriots in "The Old Dart" want to come along please feel free to let us know.
Indeed, we are very much open to ANY visitors from around the Globe and would welcome you warmly to our little meet.
I would like to express a thank you to the moderators :-X for leaving this up on the Aussie Board and not where it should be on the Common Room Board. It was an oversight on my part in not notifying you of our Plans for a MEET. :-[
Neil. ;D Keep em coming ;)
-
For all those interested, Belmont 16Ft Sailing club have contacted me and assured me that there does not seem to be any problems in having the meet there.
They have expressed a desire for us to notify them however with the final numbers, when available, so any necessary arrangements can be made.
So the 16's at Belmont it is and all those coming will have a great experience, the location is fantastic over the water with great views, great food with a very wide selection and of course drinks of any selection.

Would love to have come....I'll still be in NSW, with my departure date July 10th, but it is just not practical from the Southern Highlands, so will reluctantly have to give it a miss.
Hope you all have the best day! :)
Dee :)
-
Aww, I am sure something could be arranged....We have someone coming from Sydney and pickups/lifts I am sure would not be toooo difficult.
How long was the trip from the Highlands to Sydney (abt 2hrs) ? Also some very nice overnight accommodation in the area so it doesn't allllll have to be in one day. We would be only to happy to put ourselves out a bit for an interstate visitor, were pretty nice here in the Hunter. ;D We might even showcase a bit more of the Hunter for you. If interested. ::)
Neil
-
How's the Saturday 22nd JUNE for 12.00 Noon for everyone. ???
We will have to come up with a Kidnap plan for deeiluka (DEE) can't be that difficult. ;D
We should be able to organise everything for that date. Any with extras please notify if not already.

-
:) That's very kind of you Ann I am sure we can arrange something. We can't have her spending all her time Swanning around with the Glitterati of the Southern Highlands. ::)
Oh, I nearly forgot got heaps of relies down there, most have some genetic problem, but their nice out of their cages for a while at least. ;D They'd love to have someone for dinner one evening :o

And just for Neil....the only swanning around glittering things I'm doing is walking round the dam and dodging piles of wombat p** ..... ;) ;D ;D ;D
Dee :)
-
Agh ........... Dee to Belmont .... annmck to the rescue :)
Happy JM
-
Maybe, JM....keep your fingers crossed! :)
-
I think everyone will be Happy ;D
You mind find us lot sort of Novocastrians fairly obliging should you wish to impose your presence on the area for more than one day ;)
Tis a fair drive for Lunch and a talk, although we do know how you women love a chat :o
Neil :-X

Any more takers. for the 22nd June ???
Neil ;D

Hi all. At this stage its just me. Tiki
-
I am sure you won't lack company Tiki. ;D
Neil
-
Having just escaped from hospital after abdo surgery, I don't know if I will be physically able to make the journey, as I am supposed to take it easy for at least 6 weeks. But if I am anywhere near able to travel (by train, etc) by then, I would like to included as a possibility. BTW, I grew up in Cessnock, and have been to the sailing club many years ago.
Nell
-
Your more than welcome, lets hope you have a speedy recovery and can join in our meet ;D
Cheers
Neil
-
Well it certainly couldn't be closer to home for me, downhill to get there and just a short, lung bursting walk up a steep hill to home.
Having said that it is years since I have been inside the 16's so who is going to sign us all in as visitors? You Neil?
I think you had better count me in.
If anybody needs a lift from or to a railway/bus station I can do it.
Cris
-
Hi Cris. If you live further than 5 kms from the 16 Footers you can be signed in as a visitor. :)
Tiki
-
Hi Tiki
I wouldn't be more than 500 metres from the 16's. :D
-
Hmm well if it's a short gut busting walk up a hill for Cris I know the hill and she is only less than a kilometer from 16's. I can probably save you the busted GUT on the way back. ::)
Muss can sign you in Cris, she is a member. ;D
We are well outstripping the tiny little meet in Sydney :o
Neil ;)
-
There's a very appropriately named street just up from 16's. :P :P :P :P :o
Neil
-
Yeah lived on that one Neil for 35 years then moved over the back fence 13 years ago.
I've been walking that hill for many years but the dog and I are slowing down at the same pace - both going in the back legs. ;D
-
Just putting our phenomenal, interesting, intriguing, busy, well organised, beautiful, taste tempting, eye boggling, scenic, Newcastle Meeting, on the top of the melbourne one ;D
It's ON for the 22nd June 12.00 Noon at Belmont 16ft Sailing Club. LUNCH and discussion after.
NO TIME LIMIT.
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,434144
Neil ;D
-
LESS THAN 4 WEEKS TO GO :o
Doesn't TIME fly by. ::)
All interested parties should be marking their calenders for SATURDAY the 22nd June 2013. Around 12 to 14 of us (or maybe more) will be meeting at Belmont 16ft Sailing Club at 12 noon for Lunch, drinks, and informal talks, with hopefully a lot of humor. ;D ;D
Anyone else interested just put your name in.....
Neil ;) :D
-
Not to be outstripped by any Capital city the Major meet is on in Newcastle.
Less than 3 weeks to go :o
Any further interested Hunter based or indeed interstate or Overseas visitors are welcome to attend. ;D
Saturday 22nd June at 12noon, Belmont 16ft Sailing Club. Lunch and afters.
Get your names in. Should be great Fun.
Deeiluka What's happening.... :o Missing in action on the highlands, bit chilly at the moment. :-X
-
Not to be outstripped by any Capital city the Major meet is on in Newcastle.
Of course, Newcastle was founded decades before Melbourne and our 19thC ancestors in NSW actually needed to discard parts of our colony to the south due to circumstances beyond OUR control ..... and Newcastle outstrips so many Capital cities, it even outstrips Sydney :) New York, Paris, as well as every city in Australia....
Do we have our name tags ready yet? Dee had samples on her earlier thread for the Sydney mini-meet, and I think Wiggy would have similar name tags on her TO DO list .....
The Blues beat the lot from North of the border this evening ....
Cheers, JM

Huh!
I just get the internet provided in the granny flat, and my bad eye flares up and makes me avoid using it!!! >:(
All being well.....both here and in Adelaide.....I'll be there. :D
Dee :)
-
Well no Bad eyes thank you :'( Have you an internet now in that area of the world ???
Lets hope all is well both in Adelaide and there.
ONLY TWO weeks to go everyone. ;D
Neil :o
-
ONLY TWO weeks to go everyone.
;D ;D ;D ;D
1 WEEK to Go, I am still standing so I am going, who else ??? Who's in Hospital, who found they have a birthday to attend or forgot about their diamond wedding anniversary, who can't be bothered, who broke their leg, who cannot make it anyway. Also and just who is going so I can let the club know :o ;D
Do we need anything special ::)
Doesn't time fly bye. :'(
Neil ;D

So far, so good, I will be attending. Looking forward to the meet.

There's likely only ME from our household, someone has to 'hold the fort' as we are the contact people for several elderly rellies, and it seems it will be my OH .... cause it is MY turn to have the day off ! And I do so know that I can rely on RChatters to back me up on my rights ::) ;D :), but also to understand if at very short notice I need to NO SHOW .....
Cheers, JM

Gees this is getting hard.
Thats ah 7+ 7 = 13 14. now that's -3 =10 + Jm = 11 does anyone know the square root of eleven?

-
Gees this is getting hard.
Thats ah 7+ 7 = 13 14. now that's -3 =10 + Jm = 11 does anyone know the square root of eleven?
Neil ;D
I know that 11 is a prime number ;D
-
Better be careful or we will find we have more at our meet than yours!!
That would never do!! ::) ;)
-
Don't forget to add Ros + 19.
(I am so competitive Wiggy ;D)
PM on the way Neil to sort out actual numbers.
cheers,
Ros
-
;D ;D ;D ;D I'm not really - but Neil is!! ;)
-
I would so love to be there (with or without my 19 OH's ;D).
But it seems I have to make a good argument to my newish rescue dog with insecurity issues why I would dump him for several hours to have a lunch. Much as I would love to meet all the other rootschatters I think this is a hard case to make. ( So much easier to dump a human OH ;D)
Put me down for the next mini-meet.
cheers,
Ros
-
I'm not really - but Neil is!! >:(
yeh right Wiggy >:( Just for that I am going to one of the Nursing homes I know and bring down all the people that want to come and that's heaps ;D ;D ;D
So the numbers for newcastle are now up to 165 or thereabouts :P
Just see if you can beat that :-*
Jm takes mobile phone, to meets. Family first...no, no, not the political party :o
Ros,Rhos, Roz, come on down!!! or up in your case. Can't have Wiggy showing off. Even though they do have the 2nd biggest capital city to draw from :-*
Neil

Hi
2 more sleeps to the big day.
Muss

Hi
2 more sleeps to the big day.
Muss
And who do I ask for to sign me in? pm me name if you like.
OH and I have just finished building a ramp (covered in artificial turf) so that the arthritic, cruciate ligament challenged golden retriever can get down from the verandah to the driveway without falling over and hurting his leg, then having to be picked up by us, just so I can
attend this meet. ::)
Oh and am I supposed to be wearing a badge?
Crisane
-
Oh and am I supposed to be wearing a badge?
You can wear what you like as long as it is something ;D
Arthritic Labrador Banging around here at the moment. ::) Meeting Place. at the back near the bistro area close to the water and pier. Muss if there early enough can sign you in, otherwise use your sisters address at Maitland ???
Synchronize watches....The time of the meet is 12.00noon at the club until ???
I am not going to wear a sign saying ROOTSCHAT, that would inevitably get me thrown out ::)
Neil
-
Hi
I will be there to sign in chatters. Do we need a sign for the table ?
Muss
-
Can you print a small one Muss? If so it may give the lost souls somewhere to congregate :P
Anybody need a map ???
Neil
-
Hi
Will do or maybe a job for my granddaughter.
See you there
Muss
-
I may not be there right on 12 as I have to catch the train to N'cle, then bus it back to Belmont. But I WILL be there, eventually (at least in time to eat ;D).
Nell
-

Neil
I'll have my RC badge on. 8)
Is it worth me coming then to be thrown out? ??? ::) ;D
Dee :)
-
hey that would be interesting ;D
I will have a word with the three big burly bouncers and see if they will be upset by people making possibly suggestive comments via lapel badges. I will tell them our senior SEX GROUP are having a meeting there and are happy to discuss the Pros & Cons. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
I am sure they wont be upset :o
Neil
-
Nell I am quite willing to pick you up the train station.
Is it Newcastle. Broadmeadow or are you coming through Fassifern Cardiff etc?
Cris
-
Cris, I can get off wherever is suitable. The train stops at all those stations.
Nell
-
Hi Nell
Cardiff is good for me.
I will send you pm later when I am on my computer or you send me one first with the time the train gets to Cardiff.
Cris
-
It's probably easier for me to do it on the way and I don't mind. I can go though Cardiff as well as any other way. The lift there makes it easier, at least I think they have put one in there. :P
Cris your already near the club no need to backtrack ::)
Nell if you can let me know the timetable i will meet you at Cardiff. ;D
Neil
-
The trains arriving from sydney via Cardiff arrive at 10.42 am or 11.35am That one would be best it is about 15mins to Belmont from there. That Train leaves Hornsby at 9.52am.
Neil ;D
-
Hi Neil, I was planning on being on the train that arrives at Cardiff at 10.42, as it is easier for me to get to Epping to catch that one. I will be relying on my son or d-i-l to drop me off at Epping station. I don't mind waiting around if you would need to leave it until later to pick me up. I haven't had a look around Cardiff for a long time.
Nell
-
It is only 10 minutes from my place to Cardiff on the freeway and I don't mind doing it at all but if you reckon it is easier for you Neil I will step aside. But if it all gets a bit messy then just give me a yell.
-
Hope you all have a roaring good time tomorrow ... Wish I could have been there, but as I suspected, I have to work :'(
Enjoy! :)
-
Don't let me get inside your plans, if early, you two can get a coffee maybe along the Warners Bay waterfront. I will see you at the club guys :D
Neil ;D
NOT TOMORROW DEB.....SATURDAY
-
Sorry about not replying. I am trying to lose the flu and if I do I will be there.
Tiki :)
-
do hope Nell doesn't get left/fall between
two stoolsCris and Neil!! ;D ;D ;D ;D
Have a wonderful time you people!
We'll be thinking of you!
Wiggy ;)
-
Nah, she can walk..... :o We have had a unanimous decision of one that Nell will have to walk ;D It's not far from Cardiff only about 20klms, or she can hitch a ride with a truckie. Or maybe one of those Bongo vans with all the strange paint and full of German backpackers that blow smoke all over the place. ::) Maybe she can share a herbal infusion of smoke whilke rattking around in the back ;)
We will have a terrific time now that Majm has chickened out and gone to the Mr ODD river. Well Ros, the less said about her the better until tomorrow when I bet her ears burn :o As for the rest, once I get stared on the grog, "Hic" well, don't know about naked bird pictures on the wall, "Hic" there will be pink elephants flying around everywhere. "Hic" :P
Neeeeeeeeil
-
so how many are left?
JM will be upset to miss out - I thought she was coming without OH! Bad luck JM!
Is it just you and Cris and Nell now then? ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) :P or just you??
-
Only me left Wiggy :'( Wanna come ;D......Chris and Nell have decided to stay at Warners Bay and have coffee, My wife left me cos I spend too much time organising meetings :'( Muss Bozzle and cohorts are off at a barbie that was organised at last minute when they found I had a drinking problem :P
JM and Ros, well I am not speaking to them, oh forgot, I have never spoken to them, um ::) That leaves me...... :-* Oh well and my bottle of course ;D
Oh yes the Nursing home threw me out and told me never to come back >:(
Hic
-
Is Blue Water Pizza still at Warners Bay? Do you think the club would mind ( ;D) if we stopped and got some pizzas for lunch? Somehow I think we might be shown the door, what do you reckon?
Nell
-
I think my reputation as a bit of a dag is about to take a dive sometime after 12 noon Saturday.
:D
Cris
-
Dag :o I will be coming in my old Flano and trackies and slippers. At least when I spill my grog I am not spoiling my sunday clothes. ;D
Newoil, ::) oops
-
ok peoples so not happy I can only be there for an hour - my game was changed from 4.15pm to 1.45pm - can't get out of it either as the team is short now due to time change - so I'm there for a short time - please be early so I can meet you all ;D
then you can talk about me behind my back when I leave,
Looking forward to it
Cheers

Hi
We had a great time and gained a new member. Thanks Neil.
Muss
-
Thank you for a lovely hour today it was great to meet you all, THANKS Neil for organising the lunch - we had a win 5-0 - hope we can catch up again another time plenty of laughs and I'm sure there was much more after I left.
Again thanks
-
Hey, hey,hey,; I didn't do anything stop thanking me :-[ All I did was suggest it and it went from there. I think everybody that attended deserves a thank you for making it a great friendly meeting with lots of laughs, especially about those that left early to play a game with a silly puck. :-X
No all jokes aside, I need to thank all of you as WE had a great a meet and the OH is less worried about my misdnight antics... :-* :o
Neil
-
Photos??
I wonder if Wiggy will let you count the "new member" as a participant?
I was thinking of you and feeling envious (and yes my ears were burning ;D )
cheers,
Ros
-
I also had an excellent time. Laughter aplenty and new friends (and rellies) too. How could it get any better?
Nell
-
so glad you all enjoyed yourselves!
Sounds like great fun!! Hooray. ;D ;D ;D
Now you may all cheer for ours to be as successful!
-
Maybe you could set up a skype video-link Wiggy so we can all "be there"...?
Yes I do hope the Melbourne mini-meet is really successful.
So glad the Newcastle mob had a great time :)
cheers,
Ros
-
Hi All,
Yes it was good to meet you all, I really enjoyed myself
-
I feel as if I have a hangover and I didn't even touch the booze. Must be from the intoxicating conversations and laughter.
I'm not too sure about your OH not being so worried about your midnight conversations now she has met a few of us Neil, shouldn't she be more worried? ;D
Thank you for a great time everyone.
Cris
-
Great to meet more RC-ers and spend some very enjoyable time together, also with a couple I met at the Sydney meet. The time passed only too quickly! :D :D :D
And yes Neil....thanks are owed to you.....especially for the suggestion and for co-ordinating it all. So thankyou. :D
I have to also say a special thank you to Annmck for enabling me to get there and then home again. You can all imagine the chat that went on during the time we spent together!
(And I didn't get her lost on the way home.....though it was a close thing! And I don't think she had any close encounters with any wildlife here.....my little grandkids were on their best behaviour! ;D ;D ;D )
Anyone who would like a copy of my not terribly good photos :-\ , please PM me an email address.
Dee :)
-
For those who attended both the Sydney meet as well as the Newcastle one, has the bar been raised?
Sorry couldn't attend due to family commitments - maybe next time!
Cheers,
MW
-
DITTO ;D ;D
-
A special thank you Annmck for all the trouble you went to. :-* I bet you two did some real nice chatting both coming and going yesterday. You are a real trooper. ;)
I have the photo's and the memories of a great day and all the friendly faces.
Neil ;D
-
Sorry I didnt make it but Family Emergency at last minute and have been out of Town.
(everything is OK now)
I am glad you all had a great time.
Trish :)
-
My DITTO comment was posted immediately after bella 9's; I'm really not going mad!!
It was a great day, and a great privilege :)
All Hail, Mini-Meeters, long may we chat ;D ;D
