Hi Andycapper and DiscoJools, sorry I didn’t get back to you, I had to cut my visit short but I’ll be back in about 6 week so I will keep an eye on what ever you organise.
Cheers and thanks for the offer. 2007 TDV8 RR Lux + 2005 D3 SE V6 Petrol

Hi DS,
No problem - hopefully you will be able to match the date - starting to look like the 27th unless there is a flurry of new interest for other dates - or we have more than one meet up...
Met up with Julian anyway at a foody day on a local estate - ended up helping retrieve an unfortunate couple who had been given bad advice on a track out - while trying to get up out over a steep section of rutted and rooty track they backed off a small bridge; an entertaining challenge but we got them going again without damage.
Anyway hope to catch up in due course.
All the best,

G'day DS,
Missed you last weekend, would have been good to catch up. As you can see from Andy's message there was a bit of a recovery needed when we found an Audi hanging off the bridge on the way back to my farm. Andy was well together on the recovery and we managed to save the car from any damage!
Hope to catch up another time.

Looks like I missed a good day out.
Will catch you at some point as it looks like I might be doing a few trips down south.

Hi Folks,
Anybody watching this thread who is interested in joining us but who has not yet signed up, please do so soon - or better still NOW ! , as we shall need to start sorting out a booking very soon and will need to know numbers.
To those who have registered, please let me know (pm probably best), how many will be coming and whether you will be happy with Barmah Park (or a similar Mornington Peninsula fairly casual winery restaurant) or if would like to suggest an alternative.
Please also indicate whether your registration can be taken as a firm indication that you will be attending or not.
At this point it seems reasonable to suggest that the majority have set the date as Sunday the 27th of July - and that will be what I shall be working on, barring proposals (or multiple signups...) to the contrary

| Disco 3 lunch Sunday 27th of July |

Hi Folks,
Roll up roll up!!
This is just to confirm that the date and time for the lunch has now been set and everyone who has registered should have received at least two pm's from me with the full details.
If there is anyone who is interested and who has either not heard from me or who is registering late, please pm me - there is STILL TIME to be part of this megger DISCO 3 event - (and Rangie Sports and even just RRs... how about you Drivesafe, little afternoon drive for that TDV8 rocket of yours (and you in your pink fluffy slippers...!).
Hope to hear from a few more yet....

Hi Folks, in case there are any others who wish to join us, numbers are not closed - in spite of the apparent absence of the "sign-up" box - shall ask Martin why it has disappeared.
In the meantime, if you are not listed and wish to come, please pm me
If you are listed and have not confirmed your booking, please do so asap and then tick the confirmed box (and please pm me with numbers)
All the best to one and all,

To one and all
An update - having also contacted Disco 3 owners in the LROCV (those not already listed here) am now expecting 9 (possibly 10) Disco 3s plus Drivesafe - and a total of 28 to 30 people, including 4 kids.
Can still accommodate one or two more, so be quick if interested.
Shall PM all attendees some final minor details later in the week.
We have been allocated our own parking area - round the back of the restaurant, facing onto the vineyard (signed no public access).
See you on Sunday
All the best,
Andy
PS Tim, just a quickie - presume you will be coming in the State Barge (with stump pulling torque) - or have you decided to come in the "Svelte" Disco...? Have my new year Disco..!

In the barge mate, it’s the only thing I can wear the pink slippers in and not be blinded. 
Looking forward to putting some faces to names, see you Sunday.

Hi Tim,
Seriously, it is great that you can make it - and as you say, it will be good to put faces to names.
Have a safe trip and see you Sunday.
