Dave if i go it will be at about 3ish so I can get there at a reasonable hour, I’m not overly concerned about the Rok just another one of the pros and cons hanging about the decision making process. Jeeebus I’m starting to sound like an indecisive schoolgirl trying on prom dresses. 

Will also just be taking the FDome to make it all very quick and easy, will make a decision soon.

haha I was going to say I’ve not seen you so indecisive before!

What time would that have you going through Casula/Crossroads area?

I would go M7 so a touch over an hour from when I leave home till when the M7 meets the M5.

I would like to remind you both of the last time I was in a car relay with NBG… downer

Ok well I could probably work something out (whilst breaking my dear mothers heart) if you’d like someone to share driving/costs. Cool if you’d rather do it solo though, I won’t be offended.

I think we were all on the road (some a little more to the side than others) that night. Was pretty hairy driving down that last bit into Jindy. I didn’t know it was your car at the time but it encouraged me to slow down a little.

Dave what’s the earliest you could go?  Apologies to your Mum but I can have you back in time for Sunday dinner instead which is more a family night than Friday right?

Yeah it wasn’t a fun night! I suspect tonight will be the same which means Dan will be driving!

I am better but still very skitish!

I certainly wasn’t speeding that night (and since we kept the same distance of time between neither was NBG.

But needless to say i thumbsup the idea of shared driving.

And ultimately your mum will too! (If she is anything like mine grin )

Haha she’ll be right!

I should be fine if you are passing through (m7/m5 crossroadsish area) around 4ish. Can try to get out of work early but I have to swing by my parents to pack all my snow/camping gear that I have left there then drive to the meeting point.

Mate if you could do 3:30 that would probably be perfect.  Not knowing the area too well where would you want to park and jump in mine?

So are you definitely heading to the snow now? If so I can go try to pull some strings to get out of work early which means I might just make the 330 deadline.

Ok the easiest for you would be meeting just after the m7 joins into the m5/hume exiting at camden valley way. The bunnings car park corner of beech rd and camden valley way would be the pick. It’s just a case of taking a left at the camden valley way exit and a couple of hundred metres up the rd theres a set of lights you turn right at into bunnings. From there it’s literally only a couple of minutes before you are back on the m5/hume and there’s no additonal tolls etc.

Ok mate I’ll see you there at 3:30.  Is there anything in particular you want to watch on the way down?  I can grab a handful of DVD’s plus I have a few snowboard flicks on the USB.

The correct answer to this is always porn?

Nah mate I’m not fussed I’m happy to sit back and relax (until the point you need me) snow/surf vids are always a winner.

Sounds good though mate, I’ll pm you my mobile number as I’m not sure if you already have it. I’ll go start working on the office ladies before making an early getaway.
