(...) I guess winter in Tasmania seems pretty appealing right now. Remember to pack a jumper or twelve. I can't really help with tourist info (even though I grew up in Tas I lived in the NW), but I would like to know more about these $29 tickets. (...)

(...) Do yourself a favour and sign-up with flightcentre... I did and that is how I found out such a good deal. It's through Virginblue... apparently cheap because of the new Jetstar thing happening... But for $29 each way, I couldn't miss it... But (...)

(...) I Like the idea of a national meet in Melbourne, being a Melbournite and all. Should we bother, most certainly. New Mars flavor. I wasn't told. Catalog, yep, I've seen them in Big W in Forest Hill, but unless you live in Melbourne it's of (...) (21 years ago, 26-Feb-04, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) Well if enough people could get over to perth, I am sure that we could find a hall or such to hire (given enough pre-notice that is) Another advantage of Perth as a location is that people could visit the famous Kiddywink Toys store in balcata (...) (21 years ago, 27-Feb-04, to lugnet.loc.au)

Hey Mel, Tourist attractions: what they said although I'm not sure about the shot tower with a 4 y.o (tall narrow tower, steep stairs, about 300 of them if I recall correctly which is why I haven't done it!) :) If you've got transport also the Huon (...)

I suspect that any state capital (Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth, Hobart or Adelade) would be able to provide a location to hold a national meet (not speeking for the other states but there is certainly places in perth that we could find). The (...) (21 years ago, 27-Feb-04, to lugnet.loc.au)
