Should I bring some salads as it appears to be the only uncovered gap? Or some dips or a cheese platter? I'm so confused. How many are we catering for?

Hi all,
I have been away for a week and missed out on offering to bring food etc - I'm happy to bring meat or dessert etc - what ever you still need...just send a PM.
BTW I am really, really, really looking forward to this drive. After this weekend I won't be able to drive my 8 for a while as i'm going to Palm Cove QLD for a couple of weeks

Rick,
Kalli should be able to tell me what we have doubled and what is required.
If everyone doubled up and we have meet for 40 people![Suspect](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/suspect.gif)
Kalli - take control please ---- it is a good job for you afterall.
From BOM
A high pressure system over South Australia will move over Victoria on
Wednesday. Another cold front will affect Victoria late Thursday and early
Friday. A low pressure system will approach Tasmania on Friday, moving to the
southeast of Tasmania on Saturday, allowing a cooler southwesterly airflow to
move across Victoria on Saturday.
![Sad](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/sad.gif)
State forecast
Friday: Scattered showers in the southwest and east. Local thunderstorms in
the far east. Mild to warm.
Saturday: Showers increasing from the west, mainly in the south. Cool to mild.
Freshening wind.
As I said before ---- southern airstream is deadly. I said to Kalli before. Saturday shower chance is 30% on Monday but now seeing the report the chance of ANY PECPITATION is 50%
PLUS
Mornington Peninsula
Tonight and Wednesday
Fine. A partly cloudy day with light to moderate westerly winds tending
southerly.
Min 12 Max 24
Precis: Fine.
Thursday Mainly fine. Late showers. Min 10 Max 27
Friday Isolated showers. Min 15 Max 26
Saturday Showers. Min 13 Max 20
************************************************** ******
NOW
Pray in the next 2 days that the front pass through every quick tomorrow.... we may be lucky

I was thinking that we should probably bring along some fruit as well. Do you want me to bring some along instead of desserts or do you want to arrange them as extras from someone else?

Good idea Greg. You want your kids eating fruits instead of lollies hey
Such a good daddy.
Rosso is bringing 2 cakes. That should be enuff... Greg if you want to bring fruits go for it. Could be nice to have a fruit salad with the cake, then its a bit more filling and the cakes Rosso brings will definately be enough.
2 days to go

No probs Kall.
I'll make some fruit salad and keep it nice and cold in an esky. I'll also bring some other fruit along in case some people don't like their fruit all mixed together.
Yes I am a good daddy. You'll see on Saturday that my boys don't need any axtra sugar to get fired up.

Ok, Taka is worried we are going to be doubling up, so here goes..
20 adults 4 children
Meats
Sausages - Taka - bring for approx 15-20
Chicken - Astro & RXVIII - each bring enough for 15-20 people
Meat - Auzoom & Xatnep - each bring enough for 20 people
Think of it this way, most of you men will prob want 2 pieces or more.. so try sort out about how much you want to bring..
BBQ utensils??
Drinks
Zen & Kall
Zen juices, about 4-5 bottles?
Kall - softdrinks, i'm just going to bring cans, so 18x2 cans enough?
Salads
Auzoom said his wife is going to bring heaps.... heheh
Bread
8000rmp
Sliced bread - 1 loaf
Rolls - perhaps 15-20?
Desserts
Rosso - 2 cakes
Jormatom - fruits
General
RixRed8 - Napkins, plastic plates & cutlery, plastic cups also - enough for 20-30 incase we need spares. Also can you bring some sauces for the meat/chicken.
So Taka is this better hunni

What a feast!
Don't forget your cameras for lots of pics.
I will probably give the guided tour of Taka's new garage a miss and catch up at 10:30 with Zen and Rosso at Black Rock. Only 5 minutes from Brighton so less time for the boys in the car rapping to Eminem and Linkin Park. I'll pm my mobile to you guys so we can contact each other.
Only 3 more sleeps.

I still do not know if I will be up to the drive. It will really depend on how I am feeling Saturday morning. If Danielle & I do end up going we will bring whatever we want to eat & drink ourselves that way to avoid hassle to you guys.
Hope to see you all there!

I've disappeared off your list now, Kalli - looks as though it's all covered. I'll bring some nibblies, and the veggie burgers. Oh and the black Simmons...
Let me know if anything else is needed.

Really sorry about the lateness of this but I've just joined and if i can, I'd like to come too. I bumped into another blue RX-8 a while ago and the driver invited me (no idea who). No need to bring extra food for me but I can bring chips and snacks if they aren't accounted for already.
Cheerio!
Cheerio!
