    Sydney - 2015 Christmas

    Folks,
    Heading your way from the UK for Christmas - is there any LR type things happening around the city that may be of interest during the festive season?
    Would love to travel further afield in your country but not sure her ladyship will allow such freedom !

    Let us know a few more details about your visit,
    - How long will you be here?
    - When are you arriving?
    - Where are you staying?
    - What are you interested in (apart from Land Rovers)?
    - what Land Rover experience/involvement have you had?
    - etc.

    Once we know a bit more I'm sure some suggestions will be forthcoming.
    Roger

    Jeez mate it's either too hot or too wet to be doing Land Rover things at this time of year.

    Perhaps a beach trip.

    BBQ's or cricket in the aircon or with good fan on is the spirit.

    He's coming to Sydney, not the Gold Coast, where although at that time of year you may need to pick your day, you can still get out and enjoy various outdoor activities.

    It's never too hot or too wet to get out an explore the country.

    But, if you need to stay in the city, I'd say you'll be hard pressed to find anything LR-oriented.

    If you make it up to the Central Coast then give me a yell, you're welcome to come and tinker with Monty, I've got a couple of jobs that need doing ;-)

    You blokes should be careful what you say. He might be Santa incognito.
    Beach day would be good but he'd need a bucket of sun cream.
    Cheers, Billy.
    Keeping it simple is complicated.

    Arriving 18/12/15, leaving 6/1/16.
    Probably going to be based around Sydney, may be able to get a little way out of the city, depends on her ladyship's mood.
    Other interests are limited (again due to her ladyships authority) but revolve around cars and beer.
    Know my way round most of the D2 TD5's and how to keep them going. Done a lot of lanes in the UK.
    Looking for anything LR related that might be happening otherwise it's going to be a cultural visit.
    Any help appreciated !!

    That's helpful.
    I'll speak to a few people and see if we can organise something.

    He said he'd like to travel further afield.......

    The Gold Coast is kinder weather wise than Sydney is at that time of year.

    I grew up in the bush and wouldn't take a first time UK traveller out there in the summer.

    My english neighbours , after 30yrs , still can't handle summer heat well , hence my comments.
