I'm really struggling to make up my mind :mrgreen:

Not so difficult for those of us that dont eat seafood

well, I've started my commute to this Titanic bash (II). My day started this morning at 2.45am (due to me failing to pack last night ) and I've so far caught one PMV to a site where I had to finish some work and I'm currently waiting for a PMV to take me to another stop where I catch another PMV which takes me to the first airport and here in the fabulous PNG highlands it's......foggy and cloudy with scattered rain, so I'm really hoping the weather lifts in the next few hours as I'm on a schedule! I need to make this first plane (and I've already been informed there are road works and delays on the Highlands Hwy) and then I need it to lift off on time (13:30 give or take) to make the CNS flight (departs (14:30). If that is delayed, I may struggle to clear customs and make the last BNE flight tonight (departs 19:55). I have to then get to the Sunshine Coast to pick up one of my party before turning around to drive back to the Gold Coast to pick up the other and then on to OOL for the ADL flight (departs 11:15 Sat) to arrive at the H-ADL in time for canapés, drinks......and bed! (hence why I sadly declined the ADL Dinner.... I'll be stuffed!).

The things one does for a winery crawl!

OMG swanning_it, that's some epic journey just to get here.

Sounds to me like you'll need a drink when you arrive

Well you better get a move on or you just might miss out

I'm sure that one can be arranged

Well you better get a move on or you just might miss out

I'm almost there. You've given me another 7 hours to make up my mind

I'm getting tetchy TV as my +2 have arrived. There is some serious drinking to be done tonight and come midnight my mind will certainly be elsewhere

Lucky our project manager is on the ball

Confirmed.......before the deadline!

Everything on track! Apart from it p*ssing down at Hagen causing multiple circles until they could see the runway, there were no delays! Currently in the VA lounge at CNS awaiting the BNE leg! (ODU to 2F :mrgreen

Superb! Thanks swanning_it. So the only order outstanding is yours, TV (no pressure!) Even the bus driver beat you to it.

Does that mean I win??

I'll have the squid in any case.

Orders emailed to the winery and will follow up with a call tomorrow morning.
Thanks to everyone for your quick turnaround, not easy when we were given such short notice.

As everyone knows. A Buzz wine tour is worth every klm of travel.

Have a great day, I only wish we were there with you all. Yesterday (Retro Roo) was massive and getting up again at 02.00 to watch the WC final required stamina.
