Of course, Richard's offer to use his house was probably not made in the
expectation of an army of people coming from interstate. Before we all make
too many plans, perhaps Richard needs to get a chance to say "stop -- this
is too many people".

Certainly! I was eagerly awaiting his thoughts on this discussion - when I
realised that he hasn't posted for a couple of days. Anybody heard from him?

Gee, I get engrossed in work for a little while and blam! its all happenning.

Soooooo,  SF VII is indeed set down for 4 Feb at my place.  I'm more than
happy (in fact entirely cool) to host an army of people coming from
interstate :-)  And here or not, I think its a great idea, one I hoped would
come to pass.

A few points spring to mind:

I'm about 100km SW of the Sydney GPO (not really in Sydney for those keen on
the Powerhouse).

The house is amply big to have 20 people around, but 20 people *and* their
Lego (and their MB :-) will be worth thinking and chatting about at SF VI.

On the other hand:

Beyond the space we used for the last fest here, there is a double garage
from which I only have to move the cars.

The Southern Highlands is a lovely place to be, and that much closer to
Melbourne for the MUGs.

I am sure I could score a huge room at the Mittagong RSL for $50-odd.

There is plenty of parking both here and the RSL.

Accommodation is not overly expensive hereabouts.

So for now, by all means continue your planning on the basis that its
here-ish on 4 Feb-ish, and I am sure we can find a way to sort the
facilities end of it.  The key bit is the people - do you guys want to come,
and can we actually organise your coming.

Richard
Still baldly going...

(...) The quick & the dead 8?) (...) So, MUGS, how many takers do we have? The problem (as I see it) is time - how long does it take to drive to Sydney (I've never done it)? If we want to see the Powerhouse as well, I think it'd be impossible to do (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
