I made a last minute descision to make it to the lunch and didn't arrive until 1.15. I knew Ciril was in town as the Kenworth Prime Mover was right outside the pub! Hehe!!
Nice to meet a few new cachers and chat with the regulars.
Went for a chicken schnitzel today, YUM!
Thanks Barra for the event!

Black on Black the IT crowd was there. Starting to live the series.
We all hailed the new Moderator and Freddo even brought the boss.
Post-IT and I got a family portrait done.
Talked with lots of people. Picked up a Pathtag for Mrs Parrot (Thank you to the Flippers)
Had a chat about upcoming events.
All good apart from the fact Mrs Parrot was detained at work.

Great to meet so many cachers, the venue was full! great food and company once again!
A bit late to meet and great the initial cachers but stayed to the end. Fantastic to meet Barrumundi and the many faces we were able to put to names. Great to have a laugh about our adventures and share it with others and hear the adventures many have had. Great lunch in great company. Our first pub lunch on day 128 in our Geo Streak. TFTE
A tad late and most people had got their food already and filled up the main table so I started my own.
Swapped a Shiney new tag with a little something special....[^] [:X]
Thanx for a great lunch and a great chat with caching friends

Just talking with Team Hurtle, and he will be there as well, so another one for the numbers.
I'm sure that meal was bigger than usual!
Met up with a dodgy character in a nearby lane, looking for back packers, and as timing would have it, we reached each other just as we were at GZ. AdrianMc finally got a find after a few DNF's!
Great to see the numbers up again, and a guest appearance by Tom. The election must have exhausted him, as he was looking a little flat.

31 Caches before arriving for lunch so was glad to sit down and have something to eat and have a chat with everyone.Thanks Barra for organising the lunch again.
Got there about 1.15pm.. so I sadly missed most people but nice to meet a few people there!
Thanks.. next time the whole scooby team will be there!

Another great day for a pub lunch.
Quite a good turnout with chatter about Wagga Wagga, the June Long Weekend and some cache series out north ....
Met a few new names and of course all the old ones.
There was even a caching Kenny parked outside when I left.
Bring on the next one.

I parked my truck right outside the Marble bar
It's nice when fellow cachers do that for you
Thanks barra for another nice meal

Sent hubby in for us - and despite what he told everyone he is NOT the better half of emily~angel, the better half was at home being a good Mummy and wife!
With that over he thoroughly enjoyed meeting people again, and some new people for us to meet, loved his lunch out and ever so thoughtfully brang home some pathtags for me Thankyou.
He laughed at me that Parrothead was confused by my messed up puzzle solving and I do promise to go get all my puzzles soon, just finding the time is so hard with Mr emily~angel off socializing instead of caching!
Thanks for the meet

... and so the Wicked Witch of the North lives again after slaying the evil postiegirl06 and transforming her into the new meek and mild postITgirl10 TFTPL
I think I'll have to change my name to the Flash, as I was in and out within 30 mins at my own event. Good to see a huge group today, and gathered some interest in the Border Track (May 29 -30) and Simpson (July - Aug) trips I'm planning.
Sorry for not hanging around, but the Big Bloke in the picture rules my daily routine.
Cheers from Barra

I didn't get to park my truck out the front, there was a bloody great tow truck in the way.
For the first time in two years of caching, I made it to a pub lunch. It just worked out today that I could get away from work at the right time and run an errand to get me into the city. I was surprised at how well attended these lunches are. As usual, the food at the Marble Bar was great, and I enjoyed catching up with cachers, and meeting a couple of new folks too.

Didn't think I would make this one while up from Mt Gambier but luckily my traing course broke for lunch at the right time!! Good to have a chat with the city folk !! I am slowly plugging away at these Adelaide Caches on my trips. Thanks
Good to catch up again, but I must arrive earlier next time to make sure I meet the host. Cheers.
Nice quick Gday at the pub lunch before a bite to eat and run back to work. It's a shame it's so rushed and I didn't really get to speak to the people I really wanted to but next event, hopefully we'll catch up. Thanks Barra
Managed to get there with the 2 lil misses, despite a late nappy change and some problem at the rail crossing in Belair with cars banked up for miles!
I think our meal was the last for the entire restaurant to come out, but no bother it was great.
I missed most of the oldies, met a few newies!
Last time the 2 lil misses came to lunch was when the yougest was only 5 days old, 20 months ago!
Thanks Barra, I don't get to many these days, but always enjoyable.

Enjoyed a good lunch with great company! Only managed to 'discover' four of the 20 or so of the TB's/coins logged into the event though. Nice to pick up a few hints on some problem caches and swap ideas on the puzzles. Thanks Barra.
I arrived with the minister. His driver was already there!! The minister liked driving around in the Pahero.
Nice meal and a nice chat. The discussion included an unfound puzzle and the kernel of an idea to solve it. Woohoo.
When I went into to the pub Skippy's truck was outside. When I left his truck had put on a lot of weight.

Miss E's back to school today + Mr T at childcare + Mrs E needs the house quite for some sleep after night duty = Mr E a day out for caching. Its been awhile since we (I) was able to last attend one of Barra's great events, working out of town does have its pitfalls. Great to catch up with the regulars and meet some new faces. TFTC will have to make the time between drinks less.
Work commitments meant that I didn't have a lot of time to spend here today. It's a pity as the serious caching discussions were just getting going as I was leaving. I did manage to get a couple of hints out of MtnLioness to help me along my way.
Thanks Barra for putting together another great lunch.

I was almost on time for this one, shock horror, but then there were hundreds of other people there too, so I was still eating after people had started leaving
Nice to catch up with some old friends again
Thanks

Mrs parrot will attend also. I have a long day and evening of meetings so it will be a nice break in between.
Thaught it was about time we attended one of these and with half the clan in school and the little one in daycare, Mum, Dad and bubs will attend.
Man. I can't believe it. Thanks Barra. This is my LAST day on which I must find a cache on this date. I will then have finds on every day of the year. Ummm. I'll try and find a real one too. Clear skies. Please don't cancel the event!
Relooked at things and it will only be 1 adult attending on behalf of emily~angel.
Sadly I drew the short end of the stick and will stay at home to do the kindy pick up and household chores and hubby, Tony will be there enjoying his lunch cooked for him.

Kids will be back at school, youngest starting kindy......might just be able to make it, will know better on Monday but possibly 2 adults and 1 kid here!
Work commitments, laugh at work commitments! The 2 Miss E's back at school, Master E in child care for the day sounds like Mr and Mrs E have a lunch date.
After a lucky cancellation of an appointment on that day, I'll be able to make it.
I have marked this in my diary, and will confirm next week if I am definately able to come
hey all ive marked this in my diary.. be there with my mum...aroung the 12:30 mark .......will bring TB's if any left
