LATE August is looking the best atm !

There is nothing on the SAU.NSW Event Calendar for 6 weeks after 11/8/12 Justin.

Feel free to set a date and PM/liaise with a couple of Execs.

Any Pics of the brewery and carpark?

[GTR-N1]

^^^ Splendid!....

...except for you know what

*Edit: Oh yes, you did say background didn't you Pat.

[hamiltonau]

yeah im too lazy to stick one of my skylines on GT5 in that scenery and upload it..this should inspire me to work it out though..

[Juz]

Yes it was that photo whoever put it up.

[MasterJdoggy]

sounds good.... I should be good for when ever this gos

[hamiltonau]

This more like it Juz?

[Juz]

No mate, there just about 1-2m High tree's.. but i'm not sure if they will have leaves on them atm or when we go.

[hamiltonau]

aww can you at least go all out and cover them in pink confetti if they're not in season?

i know of a certain SAU member who has a massive over supply of confetti lying around his work and home if you need access to some..

[GTR-N1]

Actually Pat, you might have something.

In Japanese temple grounds they often have trees - bare ones - with leftover fortune wishes made of paper tied to them.

So you can get to work on the day with pink paper whilst yours truly can dress up in Shinto priest robes to bless each car that goes by...

(which is what I saw being done in Kyoto when I was there - shouldn't be too hard on an old man).

You can bless my car tezza, it needs all the help it can get.

Paper/confetty idea sounds good.

I'll help out if possible.

[hamiltonau]

Im actually thinking this will be an awesome idea with some hilarious/cool video resulting from said shenanigans

i will get in touch with Maxima re confetti, Terry do you have a Yukata to wear for the blessings? I wonder if we could get anyone to play some traditional Japanese instruments, i happen to be a friend of this girl..

but she is based in Melbourne so im curious if anyone knows any Sydney based Shamisen players...actually i might ask her, she started some kind of association for it so will probably know.

this is going to be great...i just have to find a designated driver for the trip home now..

Theres only 1 or 2 trees there so It wont look like thoee pics. and your not even guaranteed they will be In blossom.

Still, count me in

[hamiltonau]

pffft with enough work we can pretty the place up a bit, im down for coming out early to have a look at what i can do..

[Jimz]

Hey boys,

Is this still happening? Dates and times? Is there going to be magazine media and the like on the day?

Even if not, I'm in :-)

Let me know if you need help on the day and I'll be there bright and early to assist in any way I can.

[hamiltonau]

still on for sure, Maxima got back to me and is keen to supply confetti as long as we are ok with allowing the event to be sponsored by his paper company, wants to have a sausage sizzle type thing at the brewery too.

whaddya reckon juz?

up for firming a date yet?

[SiR_RB]
