Gonna start packing today and wash the car. Pookey all packed. We should do a Tumut train station photo opp with him before we leave Sat morning. He won't get in until way late due to Sydney peak hour traffic so just us for dinner. If the lighting is good I wouldn't mind doing a photo opp by the train station Fri afternoon before we head out to dinner as well. Not sure if there is something else scenic there we can do a photo opp by (suggestions from those who know Tumut welcomed). I'll bring an esky but I guess play it by ear on Sat - hopefully no Total Fire Ban on Sat for our BBQ.

Yeah 39 deg C on my dash temp readout today in Melbourne. I think it will get cooler on the weekend.

I was wondering who will be going onto Omeo this year? I've reserved the Golden Age Hotel. I think its @YLD127 and I at the moment? @civillian how's it looking for you 3 days out from heading off?

Me: "I picked my nose" El Andrew: "Just completed my self-appendectomy"

Oiled my airpod on the weekend Weather is lookin good by the way our cruise - but I do hope we get some rain and cooler weather for our northern mates.

Be great to join up in a FordXR6Turbo hunt group on Dauntless If anyone plays Dauntless - let me know your Epic Username and I'll add you as friend. We can then set up a hunting party if we are on-line at the same time.

I remember a similar thing happening in a previous year @PookeyMaster (was it last year?) Am glad you can come along Pookey

@El Andrew wow that sounds band "bad bronchitis and fluid on one of my lungs" Hope you recover quickly Hope you sort out the solenoids on time @civillian Reminds me of the shortness of time when I sold my BA T to k31th and 2 hrs later after registering/insuring it had a car to drive up the Spirit of Tassie boarding ramp and go on the Tassie cruise with us ...

Car serviced (thanks Pitlane ) De Bortoli "Old Boys" 21 tawny in the bag that will go into the boot ...

Thanks @PookeyMaster I think its cleared up now - don't see any warnings or road closures around Thredbo - Jindabyne area on the Live Traffic NSW website. Hope they get all the fires in NSW under control.

What's snow equal?

I know it changes like anything but for what it's worth - looks pretty good later in November

Good to hear about the new job. Hope it's going well mate

@civillian confirmed he's a Definite (pending car readiness) so I've updated the Cruise List - please see below. CRUISE LIST: 1. @EvilDaifu VIC (4 days) 2. @Rab VIC 3. @YLD127 ACT (4 days) 4. @El Andrew ACT 5. @PookeyMaster NSW 6. @civillian ACT Maybes: 1. @k31th VIC 2. @demon1300 NSW

Nice @El Andrew I've added @civillian to the Maybe's - he would like to work out logistics of acquiring e85 in the areas. Any of the Snowy Mountain locals reading this - if you know please post up

Yeah its F2P and cross-platform. I'm on a PS4 and there are heaps of others on PC/MAC I think. Managed to build up my weapons and armour but it's pretty hard once you reach +10 armour and +11 weapons to make progress. The stuff you pay for is cosmetic only - you can't pay to win - moving ahead depends on skill, knowledge and team co-operation I think. Though I hear of some slayers who go solo and slay some tough behemoths on Reddit. The weapon selection has expanded since I started playing back in Aug. Swords, Axes, Hammers, Pikes (or spears), Repeaters (or guns) and just recently Gloves (as in boxing gloves - they are called Strikers in Dauntless). Plus you can load-out with missiles that are firey, icey or increase your slayers' health after they hit the behemoth. It has a bit of complexitity in how what I would call you add to your skills - this is through cells that can do things like make you move faster, give you faster rezzing (of other dead slayers) and better shielding (reduce damage to yourself). So far it's been pretty engrossing. Added a keyboard to my PS4 so I could chat faster in-world with the other PC players. Though there is in-world VoIP for voice chatting. I'd recommend a look if you have not tried it yet - could get pretty big as it was beta up to recent - just went Version 1.0 back in end of Sep I think.

LOL anyways this is the latest cruise list I am aware of. Anybody else coming along? CRUISE LIST: 1. @EvilDaifu VIC (4 days) 2. @Rab VIC 3. @YLD127 ACT (4 days) 4. @El Andrew ACT 5. @PookeyMaster NSW Maybes: 1. @k31th VIC 2. @demon1300 NSW I'm still in for the 4 days with overnight stay in Omeo. What are others planning?

I know him as <insert forum handle here> 😂

About a month away now - no to late join as sure there will be somewhere someone to bunk with if accommodation is tight 👍🏻

Just on 2 months away guys - anybody have any questions - please post up

Only started playing a few weeks ago - it's easy to start. But as I get into it more and learn about ways to kill the Behemoths with the weapons and augmentations available for the weapons and the Behemoths' attack modes - it's pretty engaging. So much so that when I wake up in the morning but still have my eyes closed - my mind sees what I see on the screen ... I reckon Epic Games are onto another winner. Only launched on PS4 back in May 2019 though its been available out on PC for about a year now.

Anyone playing Dauntless? I think I've got a problem - seem to be spending 3 hrs a day playing it ... 😂

Good one - they're not so expensive now and Fathers Day sales means some specials on

Year is going by fast - almost end of August ... Almost 3 months to the day - anyone have any questions either post up or feel free to PM me

Congrats on new addition to your family
