Ozfest 2008

Post by 8mileshigh »

With just 16 days until I depart for Melbourne, I thought I'd start a thread to post pictures of what is going to be a trip of a lifetime.......a phrase we use far too often on the Forum! :D

I'm looking forward to meeting old and new friends down under, sipping the occasional glass of wine and maybe playing a Rickenbacker or two? :wink:

Just starting to think about packing a few things that might come in handy.............

Graham,

You should compare shorts with Aitch. :twisted: When we visited him we gave him a pair with the Guinness logo all over them. :wink: Have fun over there. They treated us like royalty.

Guess I'm stuck with wearing them then, John! For some reason young blondes stopped finding me attractive some time ago..... let me think..... yes, I believe it was July 1972! :D

Speaking of young blondes......Graham - here's my next door neighbour checking out my new beer fridge!!

Aitch, how were you able to post a vision of your dreams?

Graham, think of all those frequent flyer miles you're racking up!
