Hello everyone, I would love to come. I may be able to swing a day or 2 to run around some of the interstaters....ie Phillip Island etc. The 19th sounds good to me.

Kind Regards
Peter Euston

Peter....if you and I both make it, that would be brilliant. I'd love to take you up on that offer!

I'm about to start investigating train bookings and accommodation possibilities......  :D

Hey Peter,
Don't panic too early mate.  Karon and I will be driving and can take another 3 passengers and play follow the leader.  If we get lost from you the centre back passenger takes the blame  :P ;D

So don't go buy a 20 seat people mover just yet mate :)

Cheers
Robert

What I would love to see most on Phillip Island is some family history stuff....the grave of Joseph Bauer, my great grandfather's brother who is buried in the Cowes Cemetery.......and the Isle of Wight Hotel, which their father first established back in the 1870s.

The middle part of this web-page tells some of his story for those who haven't seen it.....
