Re: Off to OZ and NZ in October
We will have to try and see how things go Bob! I am out in the Blue Mountains about 120 km from the City, would come in by Train as the Traffic Oh boy its terrible!
Train is easy and takes just on 2hrs 20min to Central Station from Blackheath
The 20th Thursday or 21st Friday October would suit me during the day sometime Bob.
We could meet up at the Central Station (Time to be made yet) on the Main Concourse, but will finalise later! With what we will be wearing etc so as to make recognition easy!
What say you??

Re: Off to OZ and NZ in October
Of course Bob
There is always the alternative if you have time and want to see a bit of the Countryside, that is for you to take the Train trip to Blackheath from Central, that way you could take in the Beauty of the Blue Mountains.
I would pick you up at the Station here and we could then come home for a little while, just means that you will have to take that Train trip back to Central. So that in all will involve some near 5 Hrs Total Travel time , here and back so ??????
Oh well we will see !
