BNE Dinner and Drinks - Mon 14th Sept 2015

[Katie]

Well. Will the washing be done or will it wait until Tuesday :?:

Well :?:

Washing will be done on Sun, with a possible emergency round on Tues night. I'm actually hoping I can get most of our packing done (all three suitcases!) on Sunday.

Sooo ... I'm still a maybe, but it's looking good.

Well :?:

Just ran it past my nearest and dearest and..........we're in!

Thanks to Mal for suggesting it and also for posting about the Secure Parking QFF promo. Much appreciated! We'll be there around 1830 as Lisa has to work the next morning so we won't be there too late (unless of course we get led astray :shock.

I am a definite starter - just trying to work out whether to drive or taxi it home

Count me in. A BNE dinner is long overdue!

Might join you on the train up!

If any GCers would like a lift, we'll be leaving somewhere around the 1730 mark! There are two available seats with a shadow or three seats if you don't have status!

Does that mean I have to wash the car? :shock:
(Lucky that Lisa used VA valet in BNE on Tuesday and they washed and vacuumed it for her....for a fee of course!)

Lol well it looks like jetlagger will get P1 service as I'll shout his first drink. Free ride plus first drink on the house, that should convert a tentative attendance to a definite...

 

[samh004]

I'll be driving up a little earlier to perhaps make a purchase at the Crumpler DFO store.

 

[anna2103]

Sorry a late withdrawal, my mother has decided she needs me for the evening
Next time definitely

All booked for 6:30 at Mick O'Malley's in the section they call "The Library".

Access is downstairs from the Queen St Mall, directly in front of the Wintergarden & Hilton. When you get downstairs, head towards the bar. The library section is past the bar and on the left.

I've asked them to put a sign on the table(s) saying "Frequent Flyers".

Looking forward to see you all then.

 

[Mal]

Quick bump to remind people that this is tonight. See you tonight - looking forward to it

After poking fun at anna2103, I have to swallow my tongue and declare us as even later scratchings.

I'm still working, trying to finish a report I promised for today......and I'll probably be going on it all tomorrow as well. Sorry all for such late notice.

That's such a shame - I was looking forward to seeing you again, swanning_it.

Dislike though it does raise the standard of the event somewhat.
