Hi Soooooo excited to meet you all. 
Hubbie had a melt down this weekend getting the body work done but is feeling better today as he is back on his schedule.  I am counting the weeks off.  McGirr we have one extra body, my 13 year old niece Sarah who is going to keep my daughter company.  Thank goodness there are heaps of fellas there as Peter will be travelling with 2 teenage girls and a missus. Cheers Hen

I hope he is allowed to come over to the men's secret drink parties with a permission slip.

A hint is that it's 50 meters past the big tree, turn left for 50 mt , then left again for 50 mt and left again for 50 mt then right for 100 mt. Hope fully the women reading this will have no idea reading this map so for the guys it's next to the big tree.

Mal,

I maybe retired to (forced).

McGirr,

We won't need a map to find the party, just someone sober enough to take us back to our own hut.
