Oh yeah, that's a good idea, a joint SA/VIC meet up!
The only VIC hivers I can recall is @melbourneswest, a great chap from what I can gather and my girl @riverflows but I know there's others.

I am from Victoria, as the name states in Melbourne's West 🤣 would be good for a Hive meet
The Melbourne part sort of gives it away bro. Lol. I wanted to tag you to make it known so maybe there's a meet up in the future?
Yeah would be good. I think there will be further lockdown restrictions coming in though. Might be another year or two before things get back to normal :(
Yes, I tend to agree. I saw Sydney just copped up the clacker, mandatory masks etc. I agree for sure, a long time before things will normalise and then to what normal they revert to is a point of much conjecture.
Yeab, we almost got done over, we usually stay on the Murray but in the NSW side. We didn't book accommodation this year (we have family all along the Murray) just in case. Luckily as at 5pm on New Years eve restrictions were announced and Victorians had until 11:59pm to return to Vic or face 14 days quarantine.
As you can see, they were quick to set up check points.
Lol...Mad dash home huh? I know people who didn't make it and yep, quarantine for them. My sister is in Sydney and I'll give her a call later to see how it is on the ground. I'm afraid that 2021 hasn't brought about any changes as far as the bastard-virus goes.
I think we were fools to think it wouldn't come back, to be honest.
True, but we're still so much more lucky than most of our mates around the globe...
Is your mob from the murray then mate? I know a few people in self quarantine now because they were in NSW when they called it - so glad I didn't go up there. There must have been thousands of Viccos on that checkpoint coming in!
Yes in deed, on NSW side in Hay. We are Wiradjuri. However we have family pretty much from Hay all the way East along the Murray through Balranald, Euston, Red Cliffs, Mildura and Robinvale.
To visit everyone or most is usually 2500km drive up Central Vic to Narrandera east to Mildura then back down to Robinvale, Swan Hill and home.
12 hours to drive from Eden to Genoa turnoff where the checkpoint is.- usually 45-60mins...and so sitting in that traffic jam for so many hours just to get the checkpoint and then by the time you get there, it's after midnight so you get turned back.
Not too mention all of the trucks trying to get through for the delivery deadlines and getting stuck too...
Not funny.
Yeah that was me- got stuck in Bega and I only just went back to work in Brunswick a few weeks ago.. after being in Lockdown in Melbs for so long..Lucky I got stuck with my dad and brother though......
I have a 6 month old and a 3 almost 4 yr old. We'd go insane
Be great to figure out where all the melbourne people are at, @choogirl might be able to identify their whereabouts
Oh @trevorpetrie is also vicco. @bobaphet
Yeah I've never heard of them- but only been on here 6months anyway..
But I'm keen for a meetup! When I get back to Vic that is...🙄
I don't even know who is active and who isn't anymore.
Hi there @choogirl, I've been on here 6months and here to stay!
After all, you da man! (especially on the engagement League of champions..), so can't wait to meet the champion! 😃Great! Glad you think it's a good idea @galenkp! 😀
I'm not a champion, just an average bloke, nothing special or outstanding, neither remarkable or unique, just average.
Haaa not according the numbers man- @abh12345 😃
This sounds like more incentive to get that yearly Hive engagement post organised 😁
Lol, confirm my averageness for certain you reckon? 🤣
Those that are always as humble as yourself and are determined to tell everyone just how average they are, are always the least average and most interesting!
And really, if you weren't then, people wouldn't be engaging with you so much so that you keep, on top of the engagement league! (they'd ignore you instead...)
So Mr 'average', I look forward to meeting irl someday soon! 😃
Aww thanks for that comment, it was nice. Maybe someday there'll be a hive meet up and you can judge for yourself if I'm average, above or below, for yourself. My wife Faith thinks I'm above, but she's biased. 😆
Haaa well you're obviously a damn lucky guy to have such a biased and gorgeous wife! I look forward to meeting her irl one day too! 😀
