    I told you Pap I was coming to check on you! ;)

    Jennie gets to do a little work in Brisbane & Mount Isa, I get to tag along. My thoughts are a meet up in each city. Open to all ideas and also suggestions on what to do otherwise. Crocodile wrestling!?! ;)

    This is Jennie's first time to Australia. Christmas 1994 I visited Sydney, Brisbane, and Cairns. Never been to Mount Isa.

    Brisbane 9/21-24 & Mount Isa 9/25-28.

    Think of a Jail, and then imagine it in the middle of nowhere.

    I was on trip to Brissie recently and caught up with friends for drinks at http://www.belgianbeercafebrussels.com.au/ classy place and bazillion beers you never heard of.. plenty nearby quality accommodation same block http://www.oakshotelsresorts.com/oaks-felix/ and short walk to Botanic Gardens by the river http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brisbane_City_Botanic_Gardens and footbridge over the river to restaurant precinct at Southbank http://www.visitsouthbank.com.au/

    I just mapped it all in excruciating detail for upcoming iPhone app..

    Sounds like a plan Rob! :D:D

    Trouble is................holidays are booked out till Jan-Feb next year already. :eek::eek:

    And I know September is entirely booked out because that is when I wanted to visit the USA this year myself if I decided to come over. ;);)

    But, I will talk to my supervisor tonite at work which I am sure will tell me to rack off. My Superintendent aint much better either, so I will give him a miss if I cant get holidays tonite. :(:(

    I think I may have to go to my department manager to see if he will give me the time off to make it down to Brisbane on those dates and the two days I am working while you are here. :D:D

    I will let ya know asap, of course. :D:D

    Wont be hard to have a good time in Brisbane, will even take ya down to the Gold Coast for a drive. That place is just lovely! :eek::eek:

    Not much going on here, but I will try and come up with something to keep ya's entertained. :D:D

    You and Jennie like drinking and fighting right? :eek::eek:
