    This got me thinking...how far will you go for f2f silver related? Tomorrow will be the furthest for me, a 60km trip...so a 120km round trip.

    Something special about f2f, especially when you meet some lovely folks.

    How far did you go?

    The point within a circle...
    We had a Brisbane meet today... just got home - slightly inebriated your honour!

    I'd say about 4 or 5 pitchers of Tiger, plus some rum, TMD herbal liqueur's, few beers at the BBQ earlier. THATS what a good day's stacking is about.

    Another fraternity to be part of :D

    Hopefully there will be a meet when I am back for a visit in April, then I can lay claim to have travelled a few 1000km's for a f2f trade (and beer!).
