HI ALL!!
Sunday is going to be a beautiful day - according to the internet weekend weather for Perth - and they are always spot on!! Please once again - p/plates and serviettes will be provided - am sure there will be a few who will bring camera's - cannot for the life of me find ours.....am turning the house upside down....would be nice to get some pic's......  Anyone agree???Like I mentioned we have never BBQ there before only having picnic's so maybe pack in some tin foil as not sure how clean those BBQ are... generally just a wipe down is good enough.... Will see all there on SUNDAY...... Erica This post has been edited by EricaC: Jul 30 2010, 07:38 PM |

Here I have only seen the pap cooler bags with the zip  I have two - a nice size one.....(which our beloved son took with for his fishing....  ) so you can imagine how that smells.....!!! and a smaller one...which I will have to CRAM everything into.! I saw some stunning picnic baskets at @home I think it's called - but that is in the Galleria ...... I will just have to make use of my LOVELY bright pink Coles bags.....  Erica |

[/Good Morning Erica  I have a hard cooler box (Eski as they call it) Had to buy one for all the cricket games we watch my son play. And i also have a delightful pink plastic soft bag i got from Coles which i use for the beach. Will have to use that. I've looked at those amazing picnic baskets at the Galleria. Just cant bring myself to buy one. So expensive and we dont need it too often. So will probably stuff everything in our pockets  Going to make some fudge now. The guys at work made me promise i would bring them some on Monday. Are you buying your bread rolls today or tomorrow?  M] This post has been edited by Mandylee: Jul 31 2010, 02:29 PM |

Those 'Delux' picnic baskets are really cool - but yes, very pricey...me thinks great for Caviar, imported cheeses and the like..... Lekker Coles bags...nothing wrong with those!!Erica |

You can get Esky's at Coles/Woolies and Bunnings, have also seen them at Target and Big W etc.
I may not make it tomorrow, because its such a nice day my friend and I may take the dogs up to Hilarys beach for a swim and a play, if i get back in time though I may just pop in and say hi on the way back but both the dog and I will be full of sand! |
