It was a great time. Had to come undone of course, getting tied up with Tafmo and Yeagermisers at the Lawenbrau Keller. Dam, slept through Morisset again. :ouzo: :zzz: :zzz:

First of all....thanks Rick for once again arranging another great Rock's Run... :yess: :yess: :supz: :supz: :supz:

Charlie, the Jägermeisters couldn't have had anything to do with your confused state....a purely medicinal digestif made with 56 herbs and spices....just happens to have 35% alcohol content. :yea: :drunken: Imagine where you would have ended up with a few black sambuccas for a night cap...... :out:

I came out from a brief session in the pokies den at the Orient to find you'd all flown the coop.... :cat1: :omg: :omg1: You guys left far too early as I was going to shout a few night caps....won $1200 on the pokies, so I was feeling generous. Had a very good weekend with the machines, won just under $2000. Of course that was spoiled by having to donate about $900 to do so, but still a worthwhile push of the buttons and I had lots of entertainment (not as much as that provided by you guys during the Run though.... :finga: )

Went out Tuesday afternoon to catch up with an old mate, and developed a very bad case of eyestrain. :glasses7: My god, the number of scantily dressed tarts staggering about the streets and hotels with barely constrained bosoms, after a Melbourne Cup outing, was wonderful...... :yess: :finga: :heart: :love1: did my blood pressure no good at all.

Rhonda and I got the Indian Pacific home on Wednesday, and had a pretty good time. The food was excellent, service was great; even had an entertainer but he didn't rock and roll as much as the train. :grin: Tried my level best to drink most of the exorbitant ticket prices, but failed miserably.... :tear: :tear: It certainly helped get some sleep during the night though... :ouzo: :wine: :wine: :drink 42: :cocktail: :drunken: :drunken:

So all in all a great time and looking forward to the next Rock's Run. :yess: :yess: :yess: :supz: :supz:

Hi everyone, I'm back on board after an extended absence cruising around New Guinea.

It sounds like you had a whale of a Rocks Run again, well done Rick. I wish Ellen and I could have been there, we will make every endeavour to make it next year.
