ThunderIdeal Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 (edited) all the brissy meets seem to be organised at EA.edit: i mean AE.i don't mean to suggest we couldn't organise one here, just that it MIGHT be more fruitful to check AE first to see what they're planning.

niggles Posted January 19, 2012 Author Share Posted January 19, 2012 The weekend of 25-26/2/12 would probably be the best bet to get people along.I havent been that far north since I was 14. I have no idea where would be good.Suggestions?Anything exciting happening that week? Apparently I just miss earthfreq. Such is life.

ThunderIdeal Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 niggles you should go into "full editor" and change the topic to reflect 25-26 which seems to be decided.i should get off my arse and attend. there was mention of camping at coochin creek or the other one, kondathingy falls? two weeks left to form a solid plan.i'd be up for another mt tibro climb if a detachment wants to do that, although it's been hot lately, and i've been unfit lately, and it's a bit of a pointless risk.

danshaman Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 so shall we say Kondalilla falls or coochin kondallila looks very nice have never been and coochin is a mozzie haven If I pass the drivers text next week I will have room in my car for 1 or 2 brisbanites who need ityes tibro is pretty tough the climb down is the worst. I didn't make it all the way to the top but was happy considering how fit i was at the time definately not for everyone my birthdays the 25th so I'll definately be bustin a move or two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niggles Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 Edited thread title. Thanks thunderideal.AE chaps were talking about doing a bit of a climb as well..I wont be able to do that unfortunately. Got arm in a cast, not really up for challenging physical stuff for a month or two.But I do love the bush and waterfalls. Looking forward to getting out there for some camping.

danshaman Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 so it seems the idea of camping has slipped away......if people still wanna drive up there after botanics gardens im keen! if not i will be having a lil shindig at my house.... it is a decent size and not to far from botanic gardens on the southside about 20-30 minute drive food, drink, plants to geeze at a small bush to walk through and good people will see what happens..... but i got a feeling it may be easier for alot of people peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niggles Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 did anyone make it to the meet?We had a car breakdown and numerous other difficulties heading down from sunshine coast.By the time we got to the gardens (about 2pm) I couldnt see any suspicious looking gatherings of plantheads anywhere. Boo.Hope everyone else had fun!(I saw a cane toad!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
