What are you heading to Australia for mate?

2200 miles, what's that, like 3-1/2 hours by car over the open road down there?

I am attending and presenting at the Australasian Milling Conference in Melbourne, then traveling around a bit with our new agents in Australia visiting customers in various feed, oil seed, pet food, etc. etc. markets for the types of milling (crushing, grinding, flaking) equipment that we produce right in the the US of A.

Sorry you others are so far away, maybe Graeme and I can get together and talk about all of you...

Is McBob anywhere near there? That's a guy you need to visit with Mark. He's the guru of all things McCulloch.

Jacob, McBob's in Weston, central NSW coast.

Nardoo and myself are 200 odd miles north of Melbourne straight up the Hume Hwy. I'm in Beechworth a small historical gold mining town east of Wangaratta where Nardoo resides.

Have a good trip and hope you enjoy yourself Mark.

Hi I'm about 6km as the crow flys from Melb city. I'm sort of new to this forum and don't know many people. I'm working as an Arborist again after a 3 year break (started in the 70's) and have a Lucas Mill that I use now and again.

It takes me 3 real hours to fly from Perth the Melbourne and 4+ hours to fly home - the difference is not the change in time zone - it's the difference in wind speeds across Australia.

Dang... I did not know Australia was that big.

 

[BobL]

Dang... I did not know Australia was that big.

Perth in Western Australia to Brisbane in Queensland is about the same distance as LA to NY.

Australia is about the same area as the 48 contiguous States of the US

Dang... I did not know Australia was that big.

Even bigger in fact

A shame many of us live far away from Melbourne, as a catch up on all things McCulloch would have been good. I would miss it anyway as I am out of town for a months holiday in Egypt.

Enjoy your trip to Australia Mark - maybe you can pick up a couple of saws along the way!

Regards,

Chris.

Unfortunately Wayne (gmax) is about 650 miles away and lives on the far side of Adelaide from Melbourne. He does has some cool saws though

You'd be about a 9-10 hour drive from Melbourne I'd reckon Wayne? I'm 7 hours from Melbourne here and thats at the speed limit, not driving like a nanna
