Anodyne Posted October 12, 2015 Hells yeah. I don't have much spare time til after the first week of Nov, but I'd try to make any date with enough notice. I'm long overdue for catching up with a whole bunch of you folks and there's a heap more that I'd really like to meet (many of whom just happen to be in the Newcastle area it seems) so any meet that's happening around there I'll be doing my damndest to make it to. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sallubrious Posted October 18, 2015 So what's the latest Horus ? It's starting to look like a summer camp now. Also if anyone has any hardwood cuts that would be suitable to turn on a wood lathe, I'd be really interested. Acacias, Eucalypts or even Callistemons as long as they are not split on the end grain/lengthwise. I'm also interested in any interesting burls. & I have another batch of exotic Acacias for the farm too. Let's get it happening. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strontium Dawg Posted October 21, 2015 So people still going to the cactus show on Saturday? Any consensus on time? I'm on a strict no spend ruling from the treasury so I'm not in a rush to make it there for plant sales. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yeti101 Posted October 21, 2015 I'm still keen to go, though I possibly can't make it to any after-event get together this weekend (was one even happening?). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeti101 Posted November 13, 2015 Anyone else hitting The Hunter Cactus and Succulent Society thing tomorrow? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Horus Posted November 17, 2015 Righto, I don't know if any of youse was watching the Interstate Camping thread, but that plan is in limbo, those usual suspects from Sydney who are still keen for a meet up, are defaulting to a gathering at my lower hunter valley property the first weekend in Dec. So come one and all, for a meeting on sat, or stay and camp for the weekend. Just putting it out there. We can sort out details and arrangements as we go. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sallubrious Posted November 19, 2015 Does anyone need a lift ? I could squeeze a few in my car. I'll probably stay overnight, so someone with a tent would be good. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
