penegal has just landed at the Tullamarine aerodrome.

Although I'm a little upset that samh004 Snr has given my Christmas present to samh004 instead of me... I hope he doesn't drink it!!!

 

[Goodonya]

Cherry Mistmas and Merry New Year to everyone. Another commitment tonight meant I couldn't come and catch up with you guys. Busy time of year. Hope you have a great night.

We are downstairs, and in fact we are under the stairs at the long table.

Blackcat20 and TomVexille have arrived too.

 

[penegal]

I'll be fashionably late, but you will thank me for showering and freshening up...

I smell like engine oil and AvGas currently.

Nothing like the smell of AVgas in the morning... (Or evening)

Have just arrived

Thanks ladies and gents for a great evening, sorry we had to leave so soon, the joys of having a pregnant wife who doesn't get morning sickness but gets afternoon /evening sickness!

Loungepax says thanks Jessica for the usb vacuum.
Will post some pictures tomorrow.
Have a good night all

For my sins, have just tripped over this thread.
Have just returned from NZ and am currently on Sydney's northern beaches.
So sorry I missed the gathering. Would have been fun.
Next time!

My non attendance pictures are not quite as flash as those of Cruiser Elite but just as valid.

Sorry to miss the Christmas party but Santiago is also fun and at $52 per apartment per night I can't complain.

Glad to hear everyone had a great time.
