I think we wing it, especially if you can organise the trailer?? So far, we have: DASH GT organising drinks, hand wash, bbq trailer (not confirmed); Scott organising a couple of hundred snags, onions, bread, sauce, serviettes, shelter & some ice; Dazzler bringing some more ice & drinks; Aspro (mate of mine) finding us some locations and will help man the tongs; Still need: Gas (maybe with the trailer??), Cooking gear (though I'm sure we can each bring a bit) Someone to go door-to-door to tell locals there's a bbq on down the street - VOLUNTEERS???

Good on ya lads well done to all involved. Sitting back here in NZ watching what is back home is
devastating. We are trying to get back for a few weeks to volunteer to clean up once we have sorted accommodation and loan car to get around. |

I was asked today to head up to work on the underground electricity network.
Just waiting on the call to come in of the time we are leaving and how long they think we will be there for. |

I could donate some time (depending on getting called in for some shifts). I can donate my time, some utensils for cutting onions etc, chuck in some snags and a generator for lights (if someone can supply the lights).
DashGT, I am sending a pm with my mobile number, give me a call.

Just saw on the news that people are saying they are bloody hungry!!! I think I've arranged alternate travel for my wife to the airport so if the guys who are helping out can make it, my place at 10am would be a good start, setup at site (yet to be found lol) by 11-11:30 and ready to cook by 12pm? Thoughts? |

Well I'm in Kedron which is pretty handy to the city, how about we arrange to meet at Padua College, Kedron at 10am, for 10:30am departure.
If anyone has a better idea, let us know. We need to consider minimising cars - I will have the Ute which will be pretty loaded, Dash might have a trailer in tow but taking half a dozen cars in to the affected areas is probably going to be more hinderence than help. Anyone happy to bring a sedan or people mover along? |

I am Southside, I have a sedan if I can offload some gear into the trailer/ute I can take some people.
Are we likely to be out into the darker hours? Just trying to work out if the generator will be required.

I am sorry I can't give a certainty, but I may also be able to give a hand with something or other on Sunday if it goes ahead.
