AFF BBQ GC - 2nd May 2015

[Bundy Bear]

How is the BBQ going? Hope the bad weather stayed away and everyone enjoying themselves.

The weather is terrible must be a sudden down pour of rain in Ashmore, and we are being forced to drink this terrible Shiraz even had one bottle from 1994, it was ghastly.

Oh you poor people...

Thanks for a good afternoon Sam now safely home at the end of the world, thank to Airwin for the lift.

A few wines were consumed during the course of the afternoon, all for research purposes, had to check which airline provides the best wine and match them against a few others.

They even sent me photos of the empties...nice reds and scotch!

I'll get a few photos up soon, but here's a group shot towards the end of the night (before we went for dinner).

Thank you all for the FaceTime call from the restaurant at 9pm.

The only problem was that I was speaking english and you were all speaking braille. :shock:

Thanks samh004 and chicka for organising the BBQ. I've also enjoyed your wine cellar tour and if one of the Granges happen to be missing, the dog took it
Thanks Airwin for staying sober and driving us safely back home.
As always on AFF events, it's nice to put some more faces to handles and share interesting stories.

The member we called in HKG could still understand us as well!

Photo is a little dark. I can recognise a few people. Trying to work out who was there.

At least you got a FaceTime call!

When did you get an iPhone? If I'd known we'd have called!

I'm glad I didn't get a FaceTime call

I'm glad I didn't get a FaceTime call

I'm more glad I didn't get an Off-Their-FaceTime call :mrgreen:.

 

[samh004]

With the house now clean again, I've found a white hoodie with grey detail. Send me a PM and I'll try get it back to you

 

[JohnK]

Ah. Do you need an iPhone for FaceTime?

 

[Lonely Flyer]

I am sorry I could only stay a short time as I had babysitting duties for my 5 year old grandson. Next time I will organise my day better.

 

[JessicaTam]

Thanks samh004 and Chicka for a great weekend. Especially the airport transfers and accommodation!

Glad I finally made it back to QLD for a do.

 

[straitman]

Ah. Do you need an iPhone for FaceTime?

Short answer is 'YES'.

longer answer is 'Yes you do'.

...or an iPad or other apple device.

 

[penegal]

Sorry again that I couldn't make it.

I did enjoy a quick few minutes of Braille via FaceTime.

 

[samh004]

Some much promised photos.
