It is about a 20 minute drive maybe 30 minutes. When you leave the airport you head for the city you get turn on the freeway that goes to Geelong Can't think of the name (i think it is the western ring road well any that goes straight pass Laverton. And Laverton is where you need to go. Someone on here that lives in Melbourne will be able to help better than my directions. Google directions from airport to laverton. Link to comment

You punch in your start point and your destination and choose method of travel. Then print off the results. Link to comment

You could be lucky and pick something up worthwhile. I wish I could get there but can't. Link to comment

Very disappointed in losing some young hens and having to take the precaution of pulling out. Looks like I might be getting on top of things. I have apologised to WS and hopefully it has been the bit of rain last week end. Moxi T works a treat as well as Rob Marshalls Quik Gel Link to comment
