I think if we add any more visitors it'll affect the viewing/hearing ability & we don't want anyone leaving disappointed! Thanks to all that have registered - if by chance you can't make it please let us know, there's still a lot of interest coming in. If you've RSVP on Facebook or Neighbourly but haven't yet made contact you're still on the list, please message through with your contact details & suburb you're coming from so we can add it to our registration in advance. 🍁🍂🍎 ****
