Fender95vnt I can pick yours up if you have somewhere for me to deliver them as I have to travel 200 km to Melb. This providing I can fit it in my 40l engle with mine.

If you have to travel that far and cant fit them all into your car fridge, dont make the mistake of putting them into an esky with ice, as the ice will defrost the prawns.

Just wrap them up to keep the direct sun off them and leave them in the boxes.We have people drive up from Katherine 300kms away and drive back and they are still frozen.. These will be at about -25 so they are far colder than ice which is about -2.

Ean, My order would fit in a 40 litre Engle wouldn't it? I would reckon 6 kg of prawns and 1 of bugs would be a shoe in.

Yep, a 3kg box is about shoebox size. So should be safe.

Glad you mentioned that Ean, That is exactly what I had planned to do. :eek:

thanks for the offer Mr whippy but all the suburbs I can get to that day are in the East or SE so a fair distance from the pick up point. If Nicho could pick them up I can get someone to pick them up from him in Pakenham or maybe Mulgrave. I'll pm Nicho

It would not be a problem as I can then go home via Yarra Glen/Yea. Save on city link costs.

Gday All,
Rang Gilberts today and they said the seafood is leaving Adelaide tommorrow and be ready for collection thursday morning.

I will PM the ph # to brenno, but sub zero should ring when they arrive.

Cheers Ean

Is there anyone near the city who could manage to pick mine up and keep it till Sat morning?
Cheers,

Fraser
