Thanks Mish
I am a member of ASV just have to find the time to get out there. With two kids (4 years old and a 20 week old) SV may be a fair way off, but I think I'll become and member and try to get out there sometime in the future.
I am in the north of Melbourne and catch ups outside Melbourne's north interests me, this may be the Kangaroo Ground events that was discussed earlier in the thread. Thanks again, John.
