You have to email me that story! I'll figure out a way to get it posted, if not here, then on a wine site with a link from here.

I would certainly like to hear the Orions (I'm intending to build a pair).

Guys, I may not be around much for the nest couple of weeks, but feel free to keep the discussion going. I will catch up when I can.

It would great to meet you guys, any chance this might happen in the first two weeks of May? I am on a trip visiting family then and this would provide a nice distraction.....

I can bring with me a Kookabura Pre amp and a Myref C for the chip amp room, speakers would be a "challange" what with bagagge allowancies!!

cheers M

It would be great to see you, but I suspect that will be a bit soon for all the all the folks that have to finish projects first.

Could you not change the date you come over?

I'm trying to keep this free, as much as possible. Things may change, but at the moment it looks do-able. Obviously you will still have to pay for your own accommodation, food, beer, etc.

that's the attitude required of us DIYers.
arrange the hol around the meet

Shin, any chance of the venue photos?

I think it all pretty much starts with acceptance of the venue. Then we can pick a suitable date, ensure it's free and book it, and the rest becomes details to work around that.

No probs Vik, will get it sorted ASAP. Did try late yesterday but the site was down.

OK here are the photo's. Sorry not the best quality as I was in hurry. They're also a little dark because I took them in the evening and night closes in fairly early this time of year.

Front of building:

Rear of building with enterance into lounge:

Main hall looking at the front entrance:

Main hall looking from the front entrance:

Smaller hall (not a very good shot this one, its actually much larger than it looks in this photo.)

Lounge shots(room is an L-shape)

Part of the kitchen:

Food prep area or whatever it is.

Thats it really, I didn't think it would be wise to take photo's of the toilets

As I said its basic but functional, we'd have the building to ourselves and its free. We can secure the building overnight with an alarm/close curtains so its no problem leaving our stuff there, although its done so at our own risk of course but I've never known there be any trouble there.
