After looking at the map and attempting to print it on A3, it was too bloody small. I have two options, i can run it out of the plan printer at like $3.00 a page (a bit expensive) or i can break it up over a few pages. What i will do is have a look at spliting it up over pages & then just make like a mini refidex for everyone. Ollie mate, how man do you reckon i'll need to print?? i was guessing around 30.

Well, I know where we're going so I wont need a map... 30 maps would require 30 cars.. and I dont think theres been over 15 cars per cruise?? Correct me if I'm wrong..

I was thinking 30 cars would require 30 maps rather than the other way round but anyway this cruise is suposed to be the biggest yet so here's hoping. And while i've seen the map and got a rough idea, its always handy to have everything there.

Mate the machine here is just a P4 1.7gig with capture stuff and half a gig of ram. The machine i'll be doing the DVD work on is a top shelf Apple G4 setup to burn professional glass master DVD's. Anyway i'm working on the maps now and i'll try and print em tomorrow. Did you wanna meet up some time before the cruise Ollie and i can leave em with you or just bring em on the day?

I'm out. I'll still do the maps, and i can give them to someone else to take. I hope you all have fun and don't get any damage. There has been alot of friction here between a few members and i think its best i stay away. Enjoy the cruise fellas.

This will be the last post here for me. I've enjoyed the site and learnt alot from all you guys. I've had alot of fun from all the cruises and met alot of great people. Ollie - yeah... mate have fun, and good luck is all i can say Andy - treat her right, respect her and look after her. Kath - I Love You, i always have and will. Have fun with Andy and remember me for the good times. Anyone else from the Brisbane guys, have fun, great knowing you all, maybe we can all still chat some time. If you're wondering why i'm going, its because of personal reasons to do with my now ex girlfriend and Andy. You can all think what you like but i can't stay here knowing i've lost the person i loved to someone from here. Call me what you will, i'm not concerned. Well this is me signing off... the calaisturbo.com sticker is coming off the car and thats me done. Someone tell Midz, i'm sure he'll be over the moon.

Hey Guys, I should be there, i'm gonna be alone in the car so if anyone needs a ride, let me know. I was thinking of bringing the video camera but have nobody to film... do we have any budding camera men or women out there?? Anyway it should be a good cruise, it'll be plenty of fun.

so in other words, stay away from insanevl cause he will probably run into while filming minors (hot chicks).
