Hi!

I was wondering do we have to stay up there? or will the show and shine wrap up the next day?

[Blitz]

The show and shine is only on Sunday. Some entrants prefer to stay the Saturday night up there so they dont have to drive up from Sydney or elsewhere early on Sunday morning

[ECR033]

So has anyone actually decide to stay up for the night?

I hadn't noticed this thread previously, but thought it seemed like a much better idea then getting up at the crack of dawn on a cold winter's morning to drive up.

I've had a quick look on wotif.com and the accomodation prices are pretty reasonable, so I'll probably book something later today (once I actually send my entry form in ).

If anyone's interested in catching up on the Sat night for a few drinks and a bite to eat, let me know. This is the first time the misses and I have come out to one of these events, so it would be good to meet up with some of you guys beforehand and put some faces to the names.

Yep we'll be up there the night before, I am a big fan of beers the night before and a cozy sleep in the next morning Dan, Jodie, Adam and Jaala are staying up there too http://www.ozhorizons.com.au/nsw/hv/citigate/loc.htm

Happy for others to join us up there

Sorry we missed you all, saw heaps of Skyzers in the carpark.

Sorry we missed you all, saw heaps of Skyzers in the carpark.

We were there - also saw a heap of Skylines (and a Ceffie) in the carpark

We came down to the restaurant/bar during the evening to see if we could find anyone, but not knowing anyone from a bar of soap made it a little difficult. We ended up going somewhere else to eat anyway as we couldn't get a table in any case. Next time...

[Abo Bob]

We were in the bar for a few drinks but we couldn't get a table in the restaurant either. How crazy tight was that carpark?!

[ECR033]

Tell me about it...that carpark was nuts. I had to do 3 point turns to get down the ramps between each level.

Speaking of tight, I also saw a gunmetal (?) 33 in the carpark that was wedged between a pole and an inconsiderate 4wd that decided it wanted to share it's car spot. I would've been a bit worried leaving my car there...I hate parking next to 4wd's.

[Duncan]

Sorry we missed you guys

By not making it to dinner for thai with us you missed the most amazing laugh noises

That was me... figured that I was there after him, and I was leaving around 7am... so hopefully he would still be there in the morning, which he was... I had to fold my mirrors in to get in there just so I could squeez out the door to get in/out of the car... and I'm not that big a bloke. lol

we were the group in the corner near the bar... just in case you saw us.
