Am trying to move heaven and earth to get there, but it's not looking good at this stage #-o

Col,

Ned's having trouble with the spelling again; he meant 'Chippy social greases'. :twisted: :finga:

:-k I must say that after a fairly quiet year, I'm really looking forward to our...

3rd Annual RAN Skilled Hands Sydney Rocks Xmas Pub Crawl
coming up very shortly on December 10th... :partyman: :occasion5: :drinkers:

Self propelled transport awaits us at 'Jacksons on George' for the kick-off...

Image

We'll see many teams doing their Annual Rocks Pub Crawls along the way...

Image

We'll visit some of the best loos that the Sydney Rocks district has to offer...

Image

So convenient too..! Image


Our Rocks Pub Crawls are a great way get fit and increase your flexibility...

Image

As Chippy Ned demonstrated so elegantly at last year's marathon event...

Image

As did Buck Rogers, who wasn't going to let a confined space beat him...

Image

I reckon the Tequilla Slammers probably aided their flexibility somewhat...

Image

And everyone still got home in time to catch the Late, Late Movie on Foxtel...

With a tinnie in front of the box...Image

An annual event not to be missed, and a fun day is always had by all...
:wav: :wav:

Why not join us..? We guarantee, you'll never be the same again... :thumbright:

After laughing my freckle off at Rick's post above, then ringing him straight away to tell him that it was Charlie Staples hanging off the chair, not me, I have great pleasure in announcing that our wonderful mate and computer guru, Charles, is definitely attending our pub crawl.

Like me, Charles is a sensitive new age guy, so I don't want you drunks hanging off him and trying to pick his brains, (only cause he hasn't got any brains left).

So, welcome to the fray Chucky, I assure you, that you will have a wonderful day. :drinkers: :partyman: :occasion9:

Might even see some of the Canberra :3some: Contingent fronting up this year...

Henry Schubert, Alex Mroz, Andy Hamilton and others all promising faithfully that they'd have 'approved :evil3: addresses' organised before the big event... But then we've heard that before, haven't we Ned...?

As far as the Sydney :partyman: Members, I believe Vern Loeckenhoff is going to join us this year, and Rob Hall, and of course Dino Gleding, :drinkers: when he finally gets around to reading these posts... #-o
