Brisbane Dinner Saturday 7th October...

[kpc]

Note the date in heading (Sat 7th Oct) is now correct:

Just seeing if there are any AFFers around who would like to catch up for an impromptu dinner, say at 730pm. I and +1 are at the Hilton so any restaurant close by (open to suggestions) would be convenient . Let me know if there is any interest.

edited: dinner will be on Sat 7th October so people can make firm arrangements

At this stage GPH & I are Platinum. Either night. Probably stay at the Hilton as well so we don't have to drive home

I can make it on either day... You'll miss Riverfire by 1 week!

It will be great to catch up again! Especially without Jessica Tam there to RSA me

Likewise! I won't RSA you - only because my limit is 1 drink and I'm taking public transport home...

Hilton is cheaper on Friday night. I've booked Flexirate for both nights to be on the safe side

i guess we could round up all the usual suspects?

 

[boomy]

Yes I'm in either Friday or Saturday doesn't matter.

If you're all happy for a CBR interloper to join, I have a trip to BNE planned that will coincide. I'd normally stay at Sofitel, so only a short stroll from Hilton.

Noting my erratic travel schedule which could change up to the day itself, put me down as Gold.

Friday is potentially less disruptive to weekend plans as well.

I’m happy to join either day. Been a while since I’ve seen you @kpc

For those in Brisbane and the Gold Coast areas, during my time off from here I bought a place at Southport so have been trying to spend a bit of time between there and Sydney to balance out life a bit more. It's done in the Skase style but has grown on me over time.

I can't make this one but will keep an eye out for next time.

So hopefully I can make it to a few SEQ catch ups if I time it right.

Ok...I think I will firm the dinner on Sat 7th October as I know some have to make arrangements. I know some are available on Friday as well but Friday was always going to be a bit of a rush for us due to our arrival from Sydney late afternoon / early evening. Any suggestions for a dinner venue? With the FB mob, there will be about 10 people at this stage

The 'Springs' are nice, and there's a great Malaysian restaurant not far from you, but they stopped taking AMEX

Depends! I'm a bit fussy about who I associate with

Where is that one? I will investigate maybe next week if I can get there.
