Brisbane drinks 26 May 2010

[samh004]

I am looking for a reason to travel before the end of June to take advantage of a) double SC's and b) hilton fast track to gold

Stay the night, leave early the next morning. Not the best city to get to the airport early, but you could do worse

Not the best city to stay the night actually.

It is actually not too bad getting from Hilton to the airport early in the morning. If you know the train schedules then it is a ~10 minute walk to Central and a ~23 minute train trip to airport. Or if you are lazy get Coachtrans to pick you up from Hilton and it is ~40 minutes (max) to airport.

I am away from 5th June to the 20th June so there was no plan to hold a June AFF drinks night

I leave on the 16th, back for a week mid-July, but then gone again for another 3 week holiday, going to be really aching for a catchup after all that.

Lol... Brisbane is an ok place to spend one night, and for a tourist who hasn't been there before a 3 or 4 day itinerary is quite easy to arrange. Personally I'm not looking forward to returning, but it is most likely happening in June sometime...

Can you put me down as a "possible" for June drinks?

Maybe you can suggest a date for June Brisbane drinks that suits you then, I have added my details so we could work something out.

Brisbane is a great place if you don't have to live here. Nah, just kidding.

Shame things have not worked out for you in the UK.

At this stage we can have June drinks on the 30th and then July drinks when Sam gets back from extended holiday mid-July.

Keep me in mind for June drinks....if I'm not off on a double SC run somewhere

Hilton fast track? Through Hilton racing? I have been thinking about doing this again as I have just been dumped back down to Blue.

No, a fast track they gave me as part of dumping me down to blue! 2 stays for silver, and 4 stays for gold. Silver is covered off, its getting to gold I am aiming for

Should be able to make it if drinks are that night.

We should schedule them for that night as a "Welcome back Mal" drinks night but I am not sure you want to be back.

I'll survive! Brisbane isn't London, but at least the weather is nicer
