Im to lazy, so ill do it here
Its actually WorldWide Appliances, most people wouldnt know it cause its not a large franchise, though a large central coast/newcastle group of 3 stores...
and we get the occasional cool toy in to
products, well the usual things youd find at places like JB/Domayne/Harveys(minus the furniture and lawnmowers )
Car audio by anychance, i know u guys should able to get them. And if u can, u reckon u can do a group buy???
I came up 2 Newcastle few times before, but each time is either for work or just for few hrs.

hehe we can, but we dont stock it..(but only from brands like pana and sony....)
so not really viable, as JB usually sell the stuff for close to cost anyway
though 2 guys/friends i use to work with now work at the new JB on the central coast, so i could quite easily approach them for pricing on things in the car audio section....im sure id get it damn close to bottom dollar via them

What do you get for your money?? Accomodation, Dinner Sat night - including drinks - prob beer/ wine/ softdrinks and breakfast on the Sunday morning.
We are planning rest stops and photo shoots along the way, it is a longer drive than some people are probably used to - so we will be doing the stop/revive/survive thing regularly.

hey guys... I'm sorry I won't be attending, especially since I had the luck to come back down the pacific Hwy from cann river on Monday... It's a fantastic drive! beautiful scenery and lots of fast corners - just watch out for the caravans. It's definitely FTO cruising country :D:D
on that note - there are some MAJOR construction works about 50k east of Orbost on the way to Cann River - looks like there was a landslide and they're making some repairs - nothing major, and the roads aren't closed, just some bottlenecks. Roadworks are expected to last until 26/6 so I just thought I'd post a note about them. This should only affect the Victorians
OK folks, here are the pre-meet details for the Mallacoota cruise:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What: FTO Australia Club Launch / Multistate Cruise
When: Saturday 5th June 2004

Meeting time: 0830hrs
Departure: 0900hrs SHARP
** Members are strongly advised to have their fuel tanks filled up beforehand and be there on time so we can have ample time to organise and tune our 2-way CB radios with one another and discuss final preparations (fuel stops/breaks/drinks/payment/cruise groups etc)
Due to the long distance of driving, we will have regular cruise breaks along the way for drivers to have a breather or stretch their legs every now and then in the interests of safety.
2nd break: <unfortunately the 2nd break had to be cancelled due to time constraints>
3rd break:
Location: Lakes Entrance
Distance: approx 1hr 30mins from Sale
Duration: 1hr 20mins
Purpose: lunch break & photo shoot (by the pier/bay)
4th break:
Location: Orbost
Distance: approx 1hr from Lakes Entrance
Duration: 20mins
Purpose: fuel stop & driver/toilet break
** this will be our last break before our final leg to Mallacoota - note that the above times are conservatively timed.
We should expect to arrive at Mallacoota before 1600pm if all goes to plan.
Usual rules apply - abide by road laws, no burnouts and no heros with something to prove.

hahaha.... u said that before the PI cruise as well Mikey, and everyone drove 120 km/h all the way. What's the rush?
i have no idea what you're talking about Alex LoL... perhaps you should get your speedo checked? as far as i'm aware, everybody was very well behaved... weren't we all?
also please note, the pre-meet is at the shopping centre's top level car park in the corner of Chadstone and Dandenong Rd...
Big props to Shannon (jester) for the head's up re car park opening times...
Cheers!
edit: Those who are unable to attend the Mallacoota club launch for the weekend are still more than welcome to join us and participate in the cruise anyway... Also please note the recent changes to our scheduled cruise breaks.
i reckon we still need some of toilet break for the 2nd break also so we can get out and stretch out legs!! make it a quick 15 minute break, thats not gonna hurt the time constraints.
