I have talked about doing this and now we will. The plan is to invite Monarchs to bring any RC toys they have to my place for a weekend of fun and games. For boaties there is a big lake in Sale or a large useful stretch of water just near Stratford. Just up the road is a great place to test your skills with rock climbing 4wd thingies. I have a test track for 1:10 scale rock climbers and I have a jeep which all can use to test their skills on a level playing field. Plenty of room in the backyard to get your tank crawling around. Next door is the footy oval for drones and helicopters. Once I know the date, we will be able to use the Sale and District model aero Club flying field for larger planes and helicopters. Friday night pub dinner and spag bol for all comers Sat night. Figure out your own breakfasts and lunches or bring stuff and we will get the BBQ going in the mornings. Three beds for first three couples to reply by phone to 0400960081. Plenty of room to camp, sleep in the shed or park a van. If you don't have an RC thingie, now is the time to think about it and go get one. Ring here for any advice. The first weekend is Cup weekend but any of the next three are fine by me. Just let me know the most popular useable date. Cheers.

Sounds like fun. I will confirm when you have a date. My dance card does not have many blanks. 🕺

The only other date is the 15th 16th and 17th. So it will be that weekend. I will put something in the newsletter. I hope some people can find the time to come as it will be a lot of fun.

I don't have any remote control toys, so is there any markets on around the area that I could go and have a look at? Not one of those crappy swap markets with old crap, a decent craft or homemade stuff market with stinky soaps, candles and dream catchers.

As nobody has expressed a definite interest, ie, no beds booked, no, I'm coming, etc. The event is cancelled. I am a weak bastard and crave company, so if there was a flurry of phone calls to 0400960081 over the next couple of days, I would of course continue my preparations. For Canary, I'm sure we could find something arty for you to do.
