Tagedeezee Heezy
I should be there...:party I'll bring my extra lighter fluid too... I was thinking of driving allll the way up and skip the train... who's with me?
Also, does anyone know which route the convoy from Brandon Park is taking? My place is on the way and I don't see much point double backing..
...and Robert's ya father's brother...
i'll cruise all the way withcha - PB too expensive🙂
Tagedeezee Heezy
we'll be there... dont know if one or two cars tho... depends if lello is finished in time.. one week well that might be pushing it... dont know if we will catch the train or just cruise the whole way. :thumb

Well it'd be pretty slack if you guys went and I didn't!
I'll consult the diary. hehehe
where do we find more details? I think we might tag along and get to know some more of you 🙂
...and Robert's ya father's brother...
I reckon, if we know the route the convoy is taking, those along the way can wait in the nearest bus stop 'service-lane-concrete-pull-over' lane and just join the gaggle as they pass - bit like the 'Italian Job'
...and Robert's ya father's brother...
Hipichic do you live in Knoxfield/Wantirna Sth coz i see a purple beetle out the front of a house all the time,just wondering if its you??
Oh....Snap.....!
nope.....i live in boronia...
But you probably see the Tinkerbeetle when I'm visiting my mum or picking up/dropping off the kids from school 🙂
Thanks for the link oval tofu. I like your thinking too...if we can find out the route, that sounds like a good plan!!
Think I'll be there...will be skipping the train though.. too poor!

sounds like there's going to be a nice train-of-bugs going up to Emerald (or where ever Billy terminates) :thumb
...and Robert's ya father's brother...
Add a bug or bus to that.
And take one off - I'm down the coast that weekend.
(Looks like I did need the diary afterall :blush )
gembrook is the end of the line for PB
I'm not sure if we'll travel emerald-gembrook by bug or train as yet....though i've got two kids voting for train...lol!
If anyone can find out the route from brandon park to Emerald, that would be cooool 🙂
my grandpa used to be head conductor of puffing billy... used to get on for free... now it costs HEAPS! will be cool cruising up with the tofu tho

I will try to come along too..... but not on the train ride. Who wants to get on a train and leave the Beetle behind, when they're so damn cute and fun to drive! Tehehe 😉
Hey hipichic, I've seen your lovely purple bug! At least, I think it was yours.... my bf has a Tiger Mica orange L Bug, and we were chasing one up The Mad Mile from UFTG to Upwey a couple of months ago. I haven't seen too many purple Beetles around. There's a really nice deep Plum one with white walls that I see in FTG, near Mountain Gate shopping centre..... but Purple is definitely better!! :P
hmmm, I wonder if the TinkerBeetle has been off up the Mad Mile without me.... 😉
I bought her back in February, so if it was before that, it would have been the person I bought it from. Other than that, it wasn't me.... 🙁 I haven't gone in that direction with her yet.
but we were at the Herbie Drive in 🙂
I'm yet to 'debut' my Bug as mine at any VW things.... I can't wait!
Hey hipichick, I used to live in Boronia a few years ago. Glad there's finally someone with taste in cars in that area! Tehehe :P There's heaps of old and new Beetles and Kombis that I see around Camberwell/Hawthorn area.... and a few around FTG/Upwey where I am.... but not many in between that I come across. If I see you around, I'll definitely be waving so I hope you're a waver too! 😀
I had someone in an Orange L Bug toot me on my way to work a couple of weeks ago....it was 7am, so took a minute to register what happened! lol!
Most definately a waver too :-)
I noticed one of the guys on this forum is in Boronia Heights, but can't remember who it was....
hehehe, we've hijacked the Puffing Billy thread!
Ok, to get back on topic......how many of us are eating lunch at the Gembrook Pub? does anyone think we'll have to book to eat there??
if the weather is good, my gf and I will be doing the picnic thing...
...and Robert's ya father's brother...
I'll be there for the cruise. Probably not the train ride bit though. You can check out my carb on the day if you want Damien.
sounds like a plan eden🙂 i will be cruizin' solo im afraid..might hafta bring my brother...
girlfriend is going to phillip island for the weekend... makes lunch cheaper anyway🙂

Crusing all the way sounds like a plan. My Veronica is a bit scared to be left in a big carpark all on her own .....( more like her mum is a bit too paranoid about other people breathing on it !)
🤘
I am all for cruising all the way! 👍
anyone know the route yet? we'd like to join in along the way 🙂
from what the weather people say its supposed to be 23 on sunday!!!
bout time we started with some good weather
see.... air and water do mix 😉
