Hi All, like most I can't confirm or deny my attendance yet, but nothing is planned to clash with either date at this stage.
I was just musing if there was such a thing as (TRT) Testosterone Replacement Therapy, a male version of HRT to prevent us acting like 'old women'??
Cheers,
Dave W.

Just a thought, The Pymont Bridge Hotel is ok. I drink there most Thursday arvos

I hope to be there at last. Cheers and Beers. Midge Jan 63 entry

Long overdue, Midge, we look forward to having you and Mrs Midge...

just need to know the start venue and kick off time.
Cheers and thanks.

Depends if you're doing the 'Basin Trials' on the Friday afternoon/ evening as well, or just the Saturday breakfast/ pub crawl, Wal...

O.K., Folks, so as I can make advance bookings for Breakfast and Lunch on Saturday 2nd November, it's time to start gathering name/ numbers for
The 2019 (17th) Annual RAN Skilled Hands Sydney Rocks Xmas Pub Crawl Smokey,

kicking off with those who've indicated their intention to attend this year's event in the preceding posts... (I'll leave the Basin Trials to Pussasan and SeeJay to sort out...)


However, before I begin, I have an important announcement to make, concerning one of our Members...


Last night, on Facebook, I learned one of our favourite sons, and regular Annual RAN SH Sydney Rocks Xmas Pub Crawl Smokey participant, 18th MOBI Intake Ex-CPOMTH3
Steve 'Shep' Shepherd has quietly tied the knot with the lovely Polly, whilst on their Fijian Getaway with Chippy Ned and his lovely wife Ellen...

Whilst we couldn't all be at the Fijian Tokoriki Resort to help them share in their celebrations, I'm hoping that both Polly and Steve will join us on Sat., 1st November
for this year's 17th Annual RAN Skilled Hands Sydney Rocks Xmas Pub Crawl Smokey, giving us the opportunity to wish them the very best for their future happiness together...

So then, in the order that you've indicated your availability/ intention to attend:

Thank you for your good wishes. Shep and his lovely wife, Polly are definite starters for the pub crawl. Looking forward to it and see you there.

Planets refuse to line up for me Rick so I will not be starter this year.
