    Well, plans changed, again. Not needed on call, and my old-man is going to visit family in Victoria, so I'm going that way. Maybe, just remembered the other, other job. But I did see this:

    Our club is doing a Tasmania tour from 15th feb through to feb 23. Basically all the good roads in tassie are being covered. All up (including boat to/from Melbourne and accomodation for the week) the cost is about $800. I was meant to go but had to pull out due to work. I know there’s a spare bed in a cabin there and back and the accomodation still has my spot so if you’re interested let me know and I’ll put you in touch with the organiser. By memory it’s a group of about 14 going.

    Sounds great, but I wouldn't be able to make it. It is 2 days there (if not 3), then back afterwards, that's 2 weeks out of Feb, when we probably have enough work in the shop to last until the end of Feb. And, as cheap as it is, I wouldn't be able to afford it - we also have 3-4 registrations due, on top of the cost of the lifestyle to which I've become accustomed... Mostly just buying bikes I don't need and eating rice for the next 3 weeks.
