Dear all, I have confirmed arrangements with Jamie Reynolds for our get to gether at NERINGLA Araluen for Saturday 23rd May/Sunday 24th May. Sorry about bringing the date back but Jamie had a "Lions" committment the weekend before.

We suggest you make your way to Jamie's on Saturday and time to arrive after lunch. Jamie has offered to put on leg of lamb for Saturday night. I will do a breakfast of bacon, eggs and toast on the Sunday morning.
  We also suggest that everyone bring some drinks with them.
Accommodation; it is starting to get cold even in the Araluen Valley. There is an Araluen Bed and Breakfast that is well recommended but you will need to book early. The Araluen Valley Hotel also has quite a few beds available(a guaranteed rural experence). Then for the keen you can always camp at Neringla (running creek, misty morning, very romantic but cold) or bed down on the floor of the house. These are the recommendations although Braidwood also has a fair bit of accommodation.
What YOU need to do.... confirm that you are coming so we have some idea of catering arrangments (an e-mail will do)  and let any others of our year know about the event. I know some of you have contacts for Rob Armstrong, John Broadhead, Horrie Dowling, Tony Peppercorn etc etc.
Jamie says that Neringla is green but the grass is short. To get to his place is simple. To Braidwood, then Araluen Road to Araluen, then right along Neringla Rd to Neringla. Its about 100 minutes from Canberra.
Looking forward to seeing you,
Steve Padgham
