Ausfish Xmas Do !

[Lucky_Phill]

G'day all.

This post is to get some feed back on a Xmas get together.

At this stage, VMR Victoria Point have kindly offered to put on food and drink for us at their Base, well, the park next to the base.

This will be #, #and I repeat will be, a NON #GROG event, due to public areas being a no drinking zone ( go figure ).

VMR will put on a variety of finger foods and have soft drinks for sale. The Idea is to support the VMR as a whole, and get together after a mornings fishing.

So, we are looking at bringing the Missus and Kids.

At this stage, Sunday 19th December is good, and we can kick off about midday. #If we want to move to another location after this to have some ' libation', that can be done.


OK, so I left it a little late to tell ya's, but hey !

so, in suming up.

Sunday 19th, December, midday.

VMR Vikky Point

Finger food #( cost to be arranged, but much less than $10 a head )

Soft drinks for sale.

probably a raffle.

#What are your thoughts ?


Cheers #Phill

Sorry Phill I probably won't be able to make it - best of wishes for the party though.

I reakon it would be great - sounds like an enjoyable day to be had by all attendees.

Tight lines to all those who will keenly wet a line on the day - no doubt there will be a few braggers ;D #;)

I will be in Perth on the 15th of December - probably in a heat wave lol.

Regards

Chris :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

Further, I am not saying you CAN"T drink at the do, it's just that , by Law, it's illegal, and should some Wowser ph the Fuzz, you may get a visit.

VMR Victoria Point is located at the end of Colburn Avenue, Victoria Point.

Plenty of parking and room for the kids #etc. #Why knot ( that's nautical ) take the family out for the morning, over to Coochiemudlo Beach, leaving from Vikky Point boat ramp ? #

We'll kick off about 12 noon.

This is a great opportunity to meet Steve Brown, your host & owner of this site, along with many other people you've never met face to face. #Many old faces will be there as well.

Apparently there is only one rule for the day. # No Lycra.

Bugga ! # #;D # # # ;D # # #:P

So, take this opportunity to bring the Wife, Kids, Girlfriends and others along for a pleasant afternoon.

Look forward to meeting the newbies.

READ THIS FIRST BEFORE SCROLLING TO THE NEXT POST


Not sure exactly how it works, but this is amazingly accurate. Read the full description before looking at the picture attached.

The attached photo has 2 identical dolphins in it.
It was used in a case study on stress level at St. Mary's Hospital.
Look at both dolphins jumping out of the water. The dolphins are identical.
A closely monitored, scientific study of a group revealed that in spite of the fact that the dolphins are identical, a person under stress would find differences in the two dolphins.
If there are many differences found between both dolphins, it means that the person is experiencing a high level of stress.
Look at the photograph and if you find more than one or two differences you need a vacation real bad.

[subzero]

The two dolphins look the same to me.
Ever since I gave up the drugs,drinking, smoking and sex I have never been less stressed.

[vp3]

I think a visit to the shrink is what I need
Ian

[subzero]

Ok you Ausfishers, all jokes aside, any more of you going to swing by this Sunday to the Ausfish Xmas tuckerfest???
Got to do some shopping for the kai, (Thats Maori for food), dont want anyone going hungry ;D

[nisrol]

[subzero]

Thanks Nisrol ;D

[Touchy - R.I.P.]

Hope everyone has a great time & I'm sure Subzero & the vmr mob will put on a great afternoon. Merry Xmas to all. Cheers Touchy.><> ><> ><>.

[CHRIS_aka_GWH]

i reckon that dolphin on the right slow cooking over a pit of coals would feed a few very nicely. ;D

Won't be attending Lloyd - Noosa on the 18th to set up camp then Helensvale on the Sunday to wish merry Xmas to the princess' Nanna. Just me the highway & the bluerinse set this weekend unfortunately -

Just to remind people about tommorrow and also to answer a couple of PM's I have had asking about the Ausfish lunch and the cost of the meal.

Kids eat and drink free thanks to Steve Brown the Ausfish site owner who has generously put forward $100-00 for the kids. ;D

We are asking for a minimum $5-00 to cover costs per person. We are suggesting if you think the meal you had was worth $10-00 a head, then people might like tp pay that. Basicly you pay what you think it is worth and are happy to pay. :)
No one will be asked for any money, people cough up after they have eaten, we feel that this way everyone is happy and pay for the value that they put on it themselves.... ???
Strange way to run a buissiness, and you wouldnt take the risk in real life but we are sure Ausfishers wont let us come away losing money. At the end of the day if we break even we are not concerned and are happy, if we make a few $$$ for VMR better still.....
Their will be a raffle at $1 a ticket 1st prize waterside assist membership, 2nd prize 5kg Calypso king prawns... [smiley=balloon2.gif]
How can we even put such a big feed on like this and keep it to such a low cost? It helps when my boss VP3 can hit some of our suppliers up for donations, trust me, it will be a good feed.
Hope the info helps
Cheers Lloyd [smiley=chef.gif]

[subzero]

Did I mention we have some crumbed prawn cutlets (not many, maybe 50 odd, first in first served), mini spring rolls, 70 crumbed chicken drumsticks, 7 chickens, 10kg King Prawns, shaved steak, mashed potatos, salads the list go's on and on, hope no ones on a diet!!! (And pudding too).
We have softdrink at a $1 a can for the adults but their will be some free to the kids as in the above post thanks to Steve.

[subzero]

For those of you coming by road here are a couple of maps. We are where the target, circle crosshair thing is.
