half these guys in this club are bloody kids mate. So im sure they wouldnt.

Organizing a cruise aint easy. Keeping everyone happy? Well that aint ever going to happen. I love the eseries cruises. When i first started going, it was 5-10 cars max. Now we have 50+, its a whole different kettle of fish.

If you want to sook and whinge about it, make sure you have some constructive points and suggestions. Otherwise, just organize your own cruise!

gthofan · 22-01-2006, 09:26 PM

dont know, but your kids and evilel's could have slept if they wanted to, so i was fine with them

rob_liss_lms10 · 22-01-2006, 09:26 PM

Just wondering if you guys use UHF?.... we use them on all our club runs and its a great way to keep everybody together and help people who get lost/ stuck at traffic lights etc.......Also great fun just to chat while crusing.....Works a treat....
Sneaks out lets you get back on topic

EFFalcon · 22-01-2006, 09:27 PM

Yeah, there was a few UHF's around last night, but i'd much prefer if there was more.

Hey Lissa, Yeah we do. Majority of members dont have them yet, but they generally are for sale at most major meets! It would make life alot easier if everyone got them!

gthofan · 22-01-2006, 09:29 PM

i reccomend the gme electrophone tx610. excelent cb, good range, and one of the best brands out there. $110 should cover one, with a pack of rechargable batteries.
sounds an excessive price, but you get what you pay for. anything with less than 1 watt of power, forget it

I wasnt saying that its some kind of an offence to having young children at a cruise, it sgood to know that they too will be one day doing the same thing, bu i was more suggesting the safety side. Sure you all try and keep an eye on kids but with 50+ cars driving around IMO its just a bit dangerous.

No offence intended heljas, was just expressing what i thought.

Psycho Chicken · 22-01-2006, 09:30 PM

Got a great idea. Let's have a 50 car meet in the Coles carpark on Chapel. Only waiting you'll be doing is waiting for everyone else to get there.

Jason[98.EL] · 22-01-2006, 09:31 PM

rob
yes we do but some of us forget them (like me on this cruise ) but thanx to efgiah we had got ourselfs out from where we were as he gave me his uhf and i wasable to lead the way out

snypereb · 22-01-2006, 09:36 PM

The young kids were cute i dont know whos kids it was but one was following me around lol!!

Jason[98.EL] · 22-01-2006, 09:39 PM

all im saying is that if all know that there is a posability that there could be young kids like mine 1- 4 yrs and others that are around the same age could we all be wary that they just might get away from us momentaraly and we dont intend to be a hinderance to others

so please let me know if its a prob

MightyXR6Turbo · 22-01-2006, 09:40 PM

From half these comments you would think that they were paying to go on the cruise, and should have all their expectations met!

You can't satisfy everyone, they are run by volunteers (John and the rest of the boys), they try to do their best to accomodate everyone. Besides, if you were too bored at one of the stops, theres nothing stopping you from leaving? If you don't enjoy the cruise, just go home!

I agree. For what I saw in the cruise, everyone was very well behaved, and the kids had a ball (even when half of us got lost).

Also, I find the carpark stopping points to be pretty damn good! A chance to put faces to names, and check out each others' rides. Unfortunately it seemed like not enough time for me at the stopping points, coz I wanted to catch up with some mates but ran out of time due to catching up with others first. And at Moorabbin I left "early" coz I had a shift the next morning at work (dammit).

I for one am very grateful for the cruise events which are organised.

John: an idea for a future meet point: I noticed outside the Rod Laver Arena that there was an AU meet happening there (those of us who missed that turn at the arena saw them), there was enough parking space for about 50 of them! There were even a couple of avalons thrown in the mix, and the odd BA. :nutsycuck

This thread is very damaging in regard to those reading this who did not attend friday's cruise, as it is simply not accurate. Go back to your Today Tonight traineeship if you want to develop slanted/miscontrued reports. And learn to make Naomi's coffee how she likes it, you little ИИИИИ.
