Missed the last 2 due clash with o/s trip (2016) and illness (2017), but hopefully this year I'll make it again.

I need to log in to trybooking and see how many places are available. At a guess I'm thinking only 3 or 4.

Didn't you have to run for that one last time?

 

[Buzzard]

The schedule is to arrive at the airport by 17:30. If people take their time boarding the coach or there is an unexpected delay on the road, we could be late.

 

[penegal]

I have decided to be sensible. Have booked the 20:00 departure to allow for extra time.

What a stellar line up, but regrettably we're not able to make it, being in Hobart the weekend before and I have to head off for work that weekend. Have fun all

Mr Penegal my happiness at you joining us on this tour was turning to apprehension, and that your Platinum would turn to Copper given your contemplation of an 1800 flight out of Adelaide. However I am reassured that you have chosen a 2000 flight, so that we can share your company, and join with you drinking Lemon, lime, and bitters.

Waiting on result of this month's surgery before I can nominate WP or NB.

If anyone gets a Hilton suite, Im interested in knowing if they have spa tubs please.

Trying to decide between Hilton or Playford Mgallery (that does have spa suites). thanks,

The Hilton has a Spa suite.
Think 1970’s.
The entire suite looks like a murder room scene from a Starsky and Hutch episode.
Unless that’s the vibe you’re going for I think you should book any room but that one.

 

[penegal]

Yeah - I have had that room once. It is not really particularly pleasant. Everything feels very tired.

The renovated junior suites are nicest, although not all of them are renovated.

It's a strange hotel.

 

[Denali]

Hahaha. Sounds similar to the Homebush Novatel murder scene curtains where you ask yourself, What did I do last night!?
Thanks

There are a lot of strange things in Adelaide.

For those with some city down time, Haigh's Chocolate is nearby and they do a tour.

Ive become quite fond of Haigh's since Chrissy.

I booked a 615pm flight so can't afford too long a delay!

Well I won’t say I told you so but I did! And you’d left them in the office. Shame.
Frogs. Scorched Almonds. Bullets. Freckles. Milk chocolate. That is all.
The tour books out. Loads of buses. At least Easter will be gone. It is bedlam at Easter time.

 

[Buzzard]

I'm missing a person (yes, ONE ) here.
Somebody with the initials PL has purchased a ticket but I can't find a post where they have indicated their Platinum status.
Please post here so that I can update Post #65 with your details.
There are now only 4 spots left.
