Brisbane members - lets go for a cruise!
I have noticed a few Brisbane based members getting a little more active on here of late.
I reckon it is time we had another go at a cruise. Anyone want to step up to the plate to organise? Sco? Your last one seemed to hit a bad date.
Lets get a discussion going about a date, and general route. We might even be able to entice Haddoc back into the fold.
Cheers,
Hymee.

Hymee, why not try a mixed cruise?

LS1 and RX8, if you think you won't embarrass us knuckle draggers.
(13 sec) :D

I'm in.
RichardM... nice to see you know "God's final message to all his creation". Given the number of people in IT on this board I expect someone will quickly nominate the book and author that coined this relationship.

Michael,
Should have put "SE Queensland Members".
Richard, would be happy to hook up with my LS1 buddies.
You musn't have been on Guv's cruise when my car was 2 weeks old, and took a stone from LYTNING's car during some spirited driving when my RX-8, with QIKMICK as a passenger quickly caught up to the 11 sec beast ;p
Glad to see it really is you Richard. My inbox shows me you have posted to some other threads, so I sit here in anticipation...
Cheers,
Hymee.

When it will fit 3 full sized teenagers with their cricket in the back seat and tow a trailler full of camping gear.
I think I’ll have an RX8-like car after the kids leave home. (It’ll be an RX30 buy then)

Technically, (if we accept your outrageous proposition that I made an error) it would be a spelling mistake anyway.

But, I still maintain that the meaning of the sentence "(It’ll be an RX30 buy then)" is that the car I would be buying by the time my kids left home would be an RX30 or some other (as yet fictional) model name.
i.e. It would NOT be an RX8 BUY (by that time) but an RX** BUY then (at that time).
I see that both your understanding and application of the English language have slipped since your move to a non-English speaking country-of-origin mode of transport. :p

It can be a family outing. I would not hesitate bringing my family if they wanted to come, not would I hesitate to recommend you encourage yours to come.
March 13/14 is probably a little short notice, but I am open to suggestions... This is a discussion after all. 3/4 April would be out for me (Wakefield on the 2nd).
Cheers,
Hymee.

OK, looks like we might have a date... how about a someone suggests an itinerary?
Edit: L&L forced a change of wording - we want this to be a family affair
