Yeh i'll be driving. Flights are going to cost over $500. Too much for me. I'd rather have a car down there so I can go wherever I want IYKWIM.

If you can't make it thats fine. I'd rather you go and have a great time down with your friends than worry about coming up to see me. I'll be down in Rocky again in May next year for a wedding so we might be able to organise someting then if we can't meet in November.

But we can talk about it close to the date....
