+The Hancock Clan Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Firstly, we would just like to share with you all that we have, at long last, just received approval of our visa applications for Australia!!! !!! As there's no stopping us now we are holding a leaving event before we head off to the other side of the world to go and live in Sydney. This will be an evening get together in a largish family pub, but early enough to allow those with children, or from a little way away, to attend should they wish. The event will take place at the Saddler's Arms in Exmouth, Devon on Saturday 13th October 2007, 5.30pm till late. WARNING! Arachnophobics should not click on the following link! More details here. _______________________________________________________________________ Also, earlier that morning, a group of crazy Devon cachers (team-name: Caching Commando!) are taking part in this year's Commando Challenge on Woodbury Common in Devon! Kinkykimbo (our illustrious team captain) has organised a 'spectators' event for anyone sadistic enough to watch us being put through so much pain! This will be a 10:00am meet, with Caching Commando's allocated set off time being shortly after 10:30am. We should hopefully finish the course some time around lunch? Details of the event are here. You could then do some of the many caches on Woodbury Common and in the area (and hopefully some new ones for that day) finishing off with a bite to eat later on at the Saddlers. But more importantly of course, get two event icons in one day! Quote Link to comment
+Skate and Jane Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 We will be at both. Sounds like a good laugh. Hope you have a wash between events p.s. we would like to see the guest room at your new home painted a lovely Chelsea blue just in case Quote Link to comment
+Stuey Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Excellent! I did the Commando Challenge a few times. You'll need to wash all crevices carefully.... they don't like soil to be imported into Australia you know. When you have the full body searches (new regulations for migrating Brits) it might be bad news and they send you back. At least if that was the case you could still maintain your own caches! hehe I'll be there (for both)! Quote Link to comment
+wheelybarrow Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 We'll be there for both - especially as Mr Wheelybarrow is part of the team! Quote Link to comment
