Albany and the Great Southern - No, we've been there and done that. This year we're heading for the SouthWest to enjoy the long weekend there, while all the revheads are over in Albany.

The preliminary schedule indicates a drive to Collie via Williams on Friday, then heading to our main accommodation at Busselton for Saturday and Sunday nights. Dunsborough, Yallingup and Margaret River lie within easy driving distance, together with all that that implies - wineries, breweries, chocolate and cheese factories, beaches and scenery.

Monday allows an easy drive home, possibly including a visit to Gnomesville. Yes, folks, Gnomesville.

Stay tuned for more information and be prepared to RSVP to reserve your spot.
