Hi Oz Catters,

Found out about this thread courtesy of Rich Joy and Tony from Darwin.

I'll be there, camping on-site and I arrive Wednesay lunchtime (to take advantage of the cheapest Virgin flight available).

Hope to make it to the Wig and Pen on Wednesday night, and yes Bob I'd be proud to wear a badge please if you could make one available.

You'll find me in the session Bar and I should be moderately easy to spot. Just look for a 6 foot geriatric with pepper and salt hair and beard playing a double bass - again assuming that Virgin will play ball and allow me to transport it.

Would welcome advice about occupying Wed arvo and Thursday. I believe that Tony and crew are going to the National Gallery, but I'm keen to visit ScreenSound? at some stage prior to Friday.

If all else fails you'll see me at the Troubadour at 6.30 pm on Easter Sunday for David Moloney's wedding - lots of things have occurred in the Troubadour at many festivals but Andrew Patterson says it's the first ever nuptials.

I froze at the last National I went to in 2000, so I'm taking a ski suit this year.

Seeya there.

Cheers, John

Regards, John
