Steve, Can you send me a p.m. of the name of the Hotel (or you can just tell me here). I need to confirm whether they have an wheelchair-accessible room.

Unfortunately, this motel doesn't have access so I'll do some investigating tomorrow as where the best/closest place to stay to City Park Motel is.
B.T.W. Have we any idea on which Route to take to Wagga Wagga yet. Perhaps go via Cowra/Cootamundra one way and come back the Hume the other? Any thoughts??

Eddie, i think the Lawson has wheelchair access. Their ground floor rooms are easy access and I think you would have no problem with Wheelchair access. They also have very large showers and bathrooms which would also be of benefit.
The lawson is not far from the show. They are a little more expensive than other places, so i would suggest calling them and running all your requirements by them. |

After a bit of research this morning I've secured my accomodation at the Country Comfort which I believe is up the street from where you're staying, Steve. Thanks for the offer of assistance. All you'll have to do is make sure you provide me with an un-impeded path to the Bar!!!
Bucknaked, I am very appreciative of your suggestion about The Lawson but the Country Comfort should be o.k. for me.

That's good news Eddie.
I'll make sure, for my own safety, that I never position myself between you and any bar!

Country Comfort is literally across the road from Bolton Park, right near where the show is on. You can go across the road and you're there. Nice place too. The other mob are just up the road from you.

That's great b2tf, as it doesn't really accurately tell me on the map that I was using how close things are to each other.

I'm 90% going Stephen. Do I still get the floor to sleep on? Also do you want to cruise up to Wagga together? Because I think I am driving up myself. Also what is the situation with washing cars in Wagga or we all going to Austins house? lol jk

OH POO POO POO
I just realised Adam and I can't make the 3rd of November. We've already booked a V8 race experience around Calder Park and then I've got my girlfriend's parent's 30th Wedding anniversary, even got flight booked to Melbourne... How the hell do I not know that? I feel so bad now...
