AFF Gathering #12 in ADL on 19 - 21 October 2018

[CaptJCool]

JetStar has a sale tonight with $35 fares from AVV-ADL if you're interested.

Possibly from other cities as well.

Turns out I’m only available for Friday night at the Lady Burra

and I might walk to Haighs choc Sat morning since I live nearby. I’m flying to a family function in Perth Saturday afternoon 20th which I had hoped would be in September.

So I’m disappointed to miss the Adelaide Oval tour (and the inside of the scoreboard is a walk back in time) and dinner. Such is life.

Even if you are only available for the Friday night, please do confirm your attendance here, as this helps me to liaise with venues to save a spot big enough for our group.

Take care that you go to the right venues - there’s a second AFF event happening in Adelaide on the same weekend

Do we skirt the issue of competing events?

I suggest the next new button* AFF gets is a "groan" option.

*No pun intended

Well in a fashion so as to speak.

Interesting as the daughter of one of my bridesmaids is an Adelaide designer who is showing at the Festival.

This has been sorted for you.

Yes I am staying at the IC too.
I did buy some IHG points in their sale yesterday so they cost half a cent US.
I don’t think my sons know about my IHG account and I use it sparingly.

Just addd a friend for the Saturday tour. Will pay when I get home later today.
Have to say... the thought of Indian food right now is not good, hoping my stomach will be ready to try again in 3 weeks time, & I won’t have to visit your new Adelaide hospital, which I am sure out ranks Sir Ganga Ram hospital in Delhi.

Ditto sad face @ Mickeyc747

I wouldn't bet on that BB. The E. D. is about to be rebuilt.

 

[Aeolus]

I should be able to make it to Sat’s dinner. Will do the booking when I arrive home later tonight.

With about a week to go till close of registrations, if you would like to attend or amend any of the events you will need to do so before Friday. Plenty of spots still available for the wine tour, and we're happy to include non-flyers if you'd like to bring a friend along.

Unsure if I've posted (and too lazy to search) but I am unable to make this due to a clashing engagement. I maybe could have compromised and made either from Sat dinner, or or just the Sunday activities but it would really have meant diminishing my enjoyment of both engagements. Doubly disappointing as it will be the first AFF# gathering I have missed.
