Christmas is not traditionally a time for restraint.

Isn't it the French who believe everything should be taken in moderation, including moderation?

Is it too late to add me in? I am waiting for my project to declare go-live, hence the almost-platinum but have decided that worst case, I will sober up quickly and get back to support my team after this do.

I wonder if anyone is going to do the MEL, SYD and ADL events?

You mean you are not already restrained? Hmmm.

I am only managing to get to the MEL and ADL dos.

I am only managing to get to the MEL and ADL dos.

It would be difficult to do all 3, given MEL and SYD are at exactly the same time... Attendance at the day component of the SYD do requires a ticket to the evening component of the SYD do, therefore precluding attendance at the MEL do.

You mean you are not already restrained? Hmmm.

Isn't "no comment" a comment? :mrgreen:

Ok, I've just had a look at the calendar entry for this event. There is a slight discrepancy from my recollection of the event details. My recollection is:

6/6:30 pre dinner drinks @ The Collins Bar @ The Hilton
7:30 Dinner at Ding Hao.

I'll ask the social ambassador to update. But speak now if my recollection is faulty.

TBH, I was going to check the thread on Monday for the details and just turn up accordingly. Saves having any recollection issues!

Honestly I'm pushing close to a 60 hr working week here these days so unfortunately aff has to suffer at the moment. However I will confirm that the dinner booking is confirmed, and I shall endeavor to post all the important stuff here in "about" 2 hours. ..

Cheers
