Not long to go now... and by all accounts it looks like this will be a fantastic weekend!
As most of you know, Club Audi have partnered up with Club VeeDub this year to share some of the organising load. Many thanks to Steve (stevemk2gti / Mr Golf) who has done most of the "on the ground" organising for this event.
I'm posting particularly to catch any Audi owners not on Ozaudi or my Club Audi email list. If you're a VW person, you will probably find what is below interesting but not 100% relevant.
-- RSVPs --
We're up to 14 confirmed Audis exhibiting thus far... great turn out guys! Any more to add?
If you are planning to come along and I don't have your email address, please PM it so I can get you the final details.
-- Hotel accommodation --
As predicted, accommodation in Canberra is becoming difficult. I can obtain limited availability at the Hyatt via my corporate connections but unfortunately the rate is $255 - not exactly the bargain end of the scale. Let me know by this COB Friday 16th if you want to take up this offer.
Otherwise, I suggest you visit the usual suspects including:
