Put me down for Sunday and possibly Monday (I am one of those that were booked on the "full" 19/20 May weekend)
 
Is there a particular hotel most of us would stay at? I will decide tonight (after consultation with SWMBO)
 
Coincidentally I had planned a Flounge run on that day with a friend, so will be there in any case. I am not sure if I will make the DC3 flight but please put me down for Sunday's activities.
 
Will speak to God tonight, but I will be there, will need to know the costs. The double f lounge has me confused?? Will see everybody on Saturday.
 
I intend to be in MEL earlier that week so might try and push my stay back a bit :)

Would love a Flounge experience, but will need guesting - keen on the bus tour thing, but will probably fly home Sunday night.
 
This date suits much better, and I am in :)

I assume the $160 from the previous event will be carried over for this? Does that guarantee me a place?
 
Not sure if that weekend is going to suit me, but will keep the date in mind.
 
Pretty sure I'll be in the US while this is on. Damn. :/

Put me (+1) down for the Sat night and Sun. I'll leave my existing paid booking for this rather than a refund.

Yes, those poor folks who have been in it from day 1 get priority!
 
And for those of you not keen on doing the Flounge run (potentially none) ... Collingwood are playing the Hawks at the MCG @1.45pm.
