Peter M Posted 26April, 2017 Report Share Posted 26April, 2017 Who's coming from the north and are interested in a "pre-drive" the day before to get to Lithgow (or thereabouts) ?At the very least we could do a Friday arvo run down the Putty and then across Bells for arvo drinks at Lithgow. Or we could start a bit earlier and go a bit further.Any takers drop me a pm with your mobile number and we can thrash out the details Port 911 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whytar Posted 28April, 2017 Report Share Posted 28April, 2017 The other option could be accommodation in the Blue Mountains, and that just leaves a short run into Lithgow on the Saturday morning? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port 911 Posted 28April, 2017 Report Share Posted 28April, 2017 Looks like the consensus was the house in Lithgow, booking request with airbnb sent, house for four all but booked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
