Don't worry Greg, just another smelly old EK. I think there may be a local car vying for Sam's spot. Fingers crossed it goes ahead at this stage but great to see commitment.

Day two will be a long one and fair chance of a head wind that time of the year. Maybe you could slip stream behind BTs green van.

When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

Can I join the festivities on an ad hoc basis?
I’m not booking accommodation as I’ll stay with my nephew in Nuriootpa, and as for time off I normally have weekends off.
And I’m not sure if I’ll have my wagon on the road by then…

So am I right just to show up and join in?

Happy to register if that is the case.

Ya don't have to bring a car , every year there are people there who didn't bring a car for one reason or another , there's always a spare seat with someone for the cruise etc.
