Hi Gill,
Happy to help if I can ! Though I may live to regret saying that. Sadly won't be around on Nov 4th, flying home on Nov 2nd.
And don't get me started on real estate agents.

Re: Scots going to Oz
Is the Glasgow meet still on for Nov 4th? If we get numbers together i could pop into Walkabout(if we have it there) and see if they will cordon off an area for us nearer the time,as im only 10 mins from Town Center.
We can def make it.
