edgy Posted 11March, 2019 Report Share Posted 11March, 2019 Hello, Completely 11th hour, and I thought I'd post it up here in case anyone of the PFA happens to be interested in some quick catch ups along my travels. I am flying into Adelaide today (11th March), where I will be picking up my car, kindly being stored by @spiller, I am doing that first thing tomorrow morning, so have proposed maybe a morning coffee catch up in Adelaide tomorrow morning (12th March) From there, I am driving to Melbourne, so I will be in Melbourne on the afternoon of the 12th, if anyone was keen for some afternoon beers and/or a feed? I'd say after 700+ km's a drive is not the first thing on my list I will depart from Melbourne Wednesday morning the 13th.. I am unsure of where I'll be located in Melbourne, but high chance it'll be bayside (Brighton) Cheers, and hope that me and Mr Lapis can catch some PFA crew in our travels.

Hey @edgy... unfortunately work commitments will stop me from catching up with you & Mr Lapis....bummer ‘cos I was expecting to see your car on my next regular visit to Richmonds, but alas not to be. Have a great drive, and safe travels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeM Posted 11March, 2019 Report Share Posted 11March, 2019 Sorry, but I'm unable to attend that early mate (Simon messaged me). Safe travels, and watch out for the radars between Adelaide and Tailem Bend! They do love a Porsche ol plod! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edgy Posted 11March, 2019 Author Report Share Posted 11March, 2019 Ok, my morning started at spillers and I’m on the road to Melb. I’m staying at the crown Metropol this evening, and will roll in about 5pm, so if anyone is keen for a quick catch up about then, let me know... I don’t mind making a detour enroute to the hotel.

Rick V Posted 12March, 2019 Report Share Posted 12March, 2019 C’mon @edgy, where’s the action shots of Mr Lapis on tour?!? Surely there was a snap or two taken along the way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely there was a snap or two taken along the way? I’ll try to summarise my 24 hours thus far in photos! 😂 Couple of nice drops upon arrival... Meeting up with the strange bed fellows this morning, I must say they make a good pair... No shortage of Grey Nomads... and the weather was misty leaving Adelaide, but then again so was I... 😂 Mr Lapis in the wild... After an outstanding evening of dining and wine the night before, how else do you top it off? Yup, you guessed it, by eating a McChicken meal at a rest stop all by yourself Just rolled out of the shower, looked out the window to this... guess it’ll do? No photos of broken (3 month old) windscreen, but it’s ok, I’ll just add it to the continually growing tab of this whole damn debacle... trying to turn a really shitty (and expensive) experience into a positive here... 🤦🏼♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edgy Posted 15March, 2019 Author Report Share Posted 15March, 2019 I suppose I should finish the blog for the 48 hour + 1600km 3 city trip!! Caught up with a good friend on the Tuesday evening, a nice steak medley of Blackmore + Cape Grim vintage + some other things attempting to keep it healthy 😂 good vino & bourbon too. blasted it to Holbrook, so a mandatory pepper steak pie and submarine photo From there I didn’t stop, and got home before the sunset.... I must go and get a load of cypress pine mulch for those cupressus. On 12/03/2019 at 18:48, TwoHeadsTas said: Insurance!!!!!!! ???????? I was in luck, a new screen went in October last year. The free glass policy goes on policy year, as it were mine is December. 👍 On 12/03/2019 at 20:36, clutch-monkey said: i just got back from adelaide damn it.. Hope you’re doing well Sam!
