2017 Footy trips

Postby carey » Wed Jul 26, 2017 6:58 am

So as the title says where are we all off to for what some call the most important part of the season?

We (Para Hills) are off to trusty old Mildura, (Cant go wrong with the low budget trip to Mildura in my opinion, half the fun is on the bus each way!) Sept 22-24, AFL prelim weekend.

I have a feeling Mrs Pag may be just about due to give birth to their first child. ;)

I am hoping Bali or Fiji. But doubt half our guys would have passports so probably some country town. Again.

Enough gas for the bus trip, and then some gas for the lawnmower :shock:

Best footy trips I ever did were Whyalla and Broken Hill via a bus.
Bus trips are what make the footy trip.

Bugger flying to Bali, Gold Coast or even Melbourne.

Plus Whyalla and Mildura have more single mums per capita then anywhere in Australia apparently ;)
There are no stupid questions, just stupid people.
