    Re: Lego World Club Magazine No. 2 - 2002 —Kerry Raymond
   (...) It sounds like there is genuine interest. I guess the next question is the time frame. Traditionally (if we've been doing it long enough to have a tradition) we've used long weekends, as that lets people coming by car from further afield (...)

        The next LUG'OZ (was Re: Lego World Club Magazine No. 2 - 2002) —Richie Dulin
     (...) Count me in. (...) I guess not so important for Sydney people, because it's a relatively short drive...(or train or bus ride) but then, I'd be taking the family and making a long weekend of it anyway. (Note that Canberra is easy to get around, (...) (22 years ago, 24-Jun-02, to lugnet.loc.au)
   
        Next LUGOZ National Meet - (was Re: LWC Mag No. 2 02) —Melody Brown
   (...) I guess anywhere away from home is always interesting :) (...) Nope, there's not. (...) I would have thought making the LUGOZ 200? thing a yearly gathering, a better idea and something to look forward too... I'm sure not all of us could afford (...)

     (...) As it happens, The Australia day weekend is when a major games convention is held in Canberra. Hundreds of players (mainly miniatures- ancients/warhammer/napoleonics etc - with a massive 24hr LAN shootem up-and usually some role-players though (...)

   (...) Sounds like a good idea...and the Australia day weekend is one of the few public holidays held on the same date in all states [as opposed to the Queens birthday, labour day, Melbourne cup, etc.] and that isn't generally a family type weekend (...)

        Re: Next National Meet —Richard Parsons
   (...) Annualish does kinda make sense to me too. We had two last year, and that seemed like too many. We've had one this year and it seemed to be a treat. And the long weekend, while its a bit of a drag from a traffic, tourists and double demerits (...) (22 years ago, 25-Jun-02, to lugnet.loc.au)
   
        Re: Next National Meet —Richie Dulin
   (...) Which is why I choose to fly Qantas ;-) Much of the damage to the Snottler on the SYD-BNE trip was apparently from crushing (I'd packed it very tightly in the bag, and then the baggage handlers had packed the bag even more tightly...), and (...)

        Re: Next National Meet —Ross Crawford
   (...) Hmmm. I also chose Qantas (they had the cheapest fares when I booked!) and still suffered minor damage, even though my stuff was packed in a large box with packing foam, which was then packed inside a suitcase, surrounded by clothing! There's (...) (22 years ago, 25-Jun-02, to lugnet.loc.au)
   
        Re: Next National Meet —Richie Dulin
   (...) Maybe there is... When I flew up to Brisbane, I was on the same flight as the Australian Chamber Orchestra. Their 'cellos get a seat each. And a special 'cello seatbelt each. Now a 'cello is definitely outside the carry-on guidelines... maybe (...) (22 years ago, 25-Jun-02, to lugnet.loc.au)

I remember taking a giant Tiger soft toy on the plane some years back, they actually made me put him into a separate seat, with a seat belt on, got a few strange (...)
