Brisbane Drinks 20 May 2009

[munitalP]

munitalP,

I get the opportunity to miss you yet again. I'm starting to think you are avoiding me :!:

It seems you have stumbled across my ploy

The next time you are in the capital of the Peoples Republic of Victoria - give me a call, if I am in town, I'll buy you a drink!

Mr!

Mr!

.... or more likely, you will be out of town :!:

Does this mean you are likely to attend?

Ooh, very nice. The food was good last time so I anticipate eating there again anyway.

 

[Nigelinoz]

I can probably make it (90% Sure) but will confirm by Monday next week.
I'm deffo in Brisbane from Sunday to Tuesday at least but may have to
nip down to Hobart on Wednesday and may not get back in time.
Will let you know.

Yes the food is quite nice. Well at least I think it is good as the last time I ate there I ordered the 600 gram steak but don't remember too much about the night. :-|

I can probably make it (90% Sure) but will confirm by Monday next week.

Hope you can make it. It would be great to have a special guest of honour all the way from Albury....

Thanks John K,
I would love to be there but unfortunately some software that I installed on
a customers system at a dairy farm near Hobart is causing all sorts of problems and if he can't fix it I maybe drinking milk next Wednesday instead of crownies.:mrgreen:

Tentative at this stage, however I'd really like to try and attend and finally put faces to names to those that I have not yet had the pleasure of meeting (esp samh004/JohnK/LW/Anat0l/moongirl!).

Bundy Bear and Mal have already seen my ugly mug!

Need to get my act together and meet some of the many wonderful characters this board is so famous for having...

Cheerio

 

[Bundy Bear]

Does this mean you are likely to attend?

As per the FT thread.

I can't confirm my attendance just yet.

Work might get in the way, well not work as such but I might have to be somewhere else.

Can someone bump it for me; before it hits the second page.

Bundy Bear and Mal have already seen my ugly mug!

Yes we can confirm that.

It would be good to have you along if you can make it.

Can't be as ugly as my mug. :-|

As per the FT thread.

What FT thread? I don't get on there very much although I better get on and see what is happening for Ozfest.

Sorry folks the software problem persists so it looks like I'm destined to spend a few days in Hobart,oh well,I shall endeavour to attend the next
one.
Have a crownie for me, John K,if you're ever in Albury let me know and I'll buy you a beer (that goes for any AFF members BTW !:mrgreen.

Could someone post the details and directions to the drinks again :?: BB sent them to me but I can't find them now.

 

[JohnK]

The venue is in the first post.

Where are you staying? If you are staying in the city the free City-Spring Hill loop bus goes past the front door, I think this bus operates until ~5:00pm, otherwise walk up Jacobs Ladder and turn left ~100 metres up the hill opposite the Old Tower mill. Jacob's Ladder is on the corner of Edward St (this is one way street going back down into the city) and Turbot St and next to the IBM building.

Timetable here: http://www.translink.com.au/qt/tran...ringhill.pdf/$file/081027_loop_springhill.pdf

Stop 134 is the closest (being about 20m down the road from the Mill hotel).

I thought there was a rule where you weren't supposed to bump your own thread, can I get someone to bump it for me.

Thank you.

I won't confirm until about 4:00pm, Wednesday afternoon.

 

[Mal]

can I get someone to bump it for me.

Certainly

And I think I did it in a way that couldn't be accused of bumping it for no reason

 

[samh004]

Looks like it's going to be another wet drinks night.
