Looking forward to meeting you next time

Yes, I deserve all the tar and feathering headed my way (not overly unusual, I must admit)!
 
That's such a shame - I was looking forward to seeing you again, swanning_it.
Same. I was looking forward to some jovial and stimulating company as well! Oh, well next time perhaps. :(

Dislike though it does raise the standard of the event somewhat. :lol: :rolleyes:
You're not wrong. I'll have to allocate the responsibility for the drink stealing to someone else for the night! :oops: :mrgreen:

Have a great evening all, I do wish I was joining you, but I'll be furiously typing instead!
 
It was excellent to see some familiar faces again after at least 12 months.... OK it was also nice to see a familiar face from all across the globe. ;) Also a pleasure to meet some new faces.

Thanks for the great night, everyone. Fly well and fly safe. :)

And the same from me too :).
 
Yes, thanks everyone for coming. Good to catch up with both new and familiar faces.

PS, as the trivia attendees did so well, there should be a repeat in ~ 2 weeks. Bundy Bear will be arranging that.

Just out of interest who turned up tonight?

I'm in BNE for a couple of weekends and would be interested in another event.

It was hard to hear the trivia from "the library" so I had to move closer to the dance floor, but surprisingly we came second, earning ourselves a $30 bar tab that expires on the 30th September (hence the 2 weeks till next drinks). A Monday might be a smart idea to claim another trivia voucher! Plus, the $3 steaks weren't bad!!

Monday September 28th might be appropriate.

$3 steaks? :shock: And they were edible? How bizarre.

Great to hear you had a nice time......and did well in the trivia. I won't be able to make the next one either, as I won't be here.

Have fun!
 
I will send a PM to a few people to confirm a couple of suggested dates, obviously before 30 September.

Then I start a new thread.

LCC style pricing.

First you need to buy a drink to be eligible.

$3 will get you the steak. For $2 apiece (I think), you can add sauce, salad and chips. :)

For $7.00 I got a steak, decent; chips for $2.00 and salad, for $7.00 I didn't go the $2.00 sauce which from my quick taste test it wasn't worth $2.00

Good to see a few people turn up.

Ah yes, I remember one of those meals at a pub in Airlie Beach. Actually not bad value. The steak was Ok, the side were a rip off, but the combination was reasonable! I guess LCS (low cost steak) may be more appropriate! Full points for lateral thinking and getting the cheapskate punters through the door!
 
You can suggest a date, but I was sending a PM to my 'rent a crowd' that way I am not forced to use the voucher myself.
Would love to use it for $3 steaks but unfortunately we'll be in Scotland. Eating haggis I expect.;)
