Warburton /Healesville to Fed Square

Peter Huth and I 

lovely course at Warburton Golf club
The park at Warburton is tucked away in a lovely setting beside a babbler (brook that is) that becomes the Yarra River. Just down the road and over a bridge is the Warburton Golf Club, the scene for our next challenge.The result of which will be revealed when the series is played from January 6th on OneHD. It's enough to say that we all had a great time....
The concert at hedgend maze Healesville was disappointing, to say the least. We have had greater numbers and a much better response from previous venues. After tea tonight, Dean Allen-Craig (the walking jukebox) played up a storm and Danny P and Wazza both had trouble keeping up with this guys amazing guitar playing knowledge. a SUPER singalong and a great night. We say goodbye to everybody today with a "See ya in Fed. square."We head for the storage yard at Braeside after several heavy showers of rain and a bleak forecast. Get our van and landcruiser hitched up and the gear transferred from one van back into ours and its off to Big4 Dandenong with the Tanami arriving later. Peter and Alison have detailed their van and are taking a cabin at Dandy Big4 as well so it gives us a chance for a last meal together, some wine and a lot of laughs. Their company has been great and they are wonderful people with a great deal of experience and knowledge of the caravan business and park industry. An early rise as the vans have to be located in Fed square by 7.00am so we leave here at about 5.30 and arrived in plenty of time at 6.30. Marg. followed me into the city in the Pathfinder that we have been using on the trip and which had to be detailed for display as well.That was a daunting task, to say the least, get a caravan and 4x4 into fed square by that time,then place the caravan where they wanted it for the mini caravan show, WOW and you know what, It went REALLY well, no probs....

Phil Conquest, Marg, Alison Huth and John Adderley

Ivan, Alex,Sally  and Marg.
Now on to the concert and some more rattling of tins and raffle ticket sales. All went well, thanks to the two schools and the lunchtime crowd. Met Ivan, Sally and Alex who were all able to stay for a while. Good to see them again.
Concert went very well, cheque presentation to the Alfred hospital and now a wind down. We take the Nissan Navara ute and the Pathfinder back to Dandy Big4 for delivery tomorrow and end up in a traffic jam on Monash Fwy that meant 1.5 hours home. Now I know why I prefer the bush..Still don't know where we are going tomorrow or what we are doing, anyway, am sure it will happen, WHATEVER....
