I had a look earlier. There aren't many options.

Can fly to SYD - 2 hour drive, realistically self drive. Fly on VA or JQ to NTL, 45 minutes to the vineyards. I will investigate transport options from NTL.
The coach will be departing on the Sat morning from the Crowne Plaza Hunter Valley.

So not from Newcastle?

 

[wooley]

Very keen, will look for flights in morning, does that make me Gold?

I only get back from LA day before, could be interesting.

Is there somewhere that says what bronze, silver, gold, platinum mean with regards to events?
