Time is a great healer. Unless it's a rash, then you're better off with ointment.

Will be coming - sorry for late notice. Don't book us in for the dinner though. Should be in the Fastback (the heater works!).

It was a great cruise! :P

We had 'Bug Macs' at Maccas... 😂 j/k

About 10 of us met up at Maaccas FTG and chatted for a while in the cold, then went on our merry way up to Sky High where it was effin freezing! :duh
Christofu's little Tofu led the way and that thing can go pretty good! 😉
I don't know what happened to Stuy and his little old Nana Bug.
We managed to lose mscabrio just before the restaurant... she ended up going on an adventure of her own before Rod flew down in Lello to rescue her and bring her back.
Empi, you SO should have come up with us! Credos was a great restaurant with some fancy but very tasty food.
Pity Damien and Jenna couldn't have come along too for eats.
Brett, it was great to meet you and see your Smiley Sunny Bus! Definitely can't wait to see some more of your photos in the future.
Tracey, I hope Jane let you get home not too much more frazzled. Maybe her name should be Jane the Pain 'cos it's what she causes you? :P

Honestly, it was so good to catch up with everyone. Eden, check out the photos you took and put a couple up here! Wish I had of brought my camera too, but all batteries are flat or lost... d'oh!

We'll have to organise another Cruise for Food soon. 😀

.... and remember, if anyone is suffering from Veedubbalitus, call Dr PBB and she might be able to prescribe something.... 😉

Thanks to everyone for coming up/down/across. It was good to see some old faces (as in, previous faces, not "old" as in hagged and weather beaten) and some new ones too - new "hellos" to Bret and John and his family. Sorry I didnt get to say to Stuy.. It was good work of Empi to bring his KG to show us - seriously brah, i dig the roof colour and detail. At maccas, we had 4 beetles, 1 new beetle, 1 fasty,1 early KG,1 bay kombi and one Mk2 GTi Golf...

The cruise was probably faster paced than normal - I like to stretch the 1200's legs on the twisties of Mt Dandy.. Fekkinel did a great job of keeping up in his brick, I mean Bay.. and PBB was riding my bumper most of the way too..

I hope everyone enjoyed the dinner and that the Rod, Trace and Kate made it home without any furthur dilemas.. Maybe you should change Jane's name to Eva.. coz she's a right Naz... 😉

It was really great to meet everyone and finally put some faces to the names. Was kinda ironic that i was joking about being sick to skip work, and karma caught me and now i'm actually sick lol

Can't wait to do it all again sometime without the coughing hehe

I must say it was quite an experience screaming up the Dandenongs amongst all the beetles... makes me wanna run out and get myself one aswell. Not that I don't love my bus or anything lol

Thanks everyone for organising such a great lil night out!

🙂

Thanks for a great cruise guys, I had a great time although the drive there was a little shall we say "drama filled" ???????

Interestingly though, Jane's engine cut out on exactly the same turn twice so she is off to the doctors for a little check up. We made a truce on the way home and she apologised for being such a right royal pain.

Looking forward to the next one ..........
🤘
