Sounds like much fun was had by all. I was drinking Spezis in the Melbourne FLounge. Omg so small. I was the only person there for a few hours. Totally weird.

Cheers

A great night had by Mrs Pineapple , who may yet post something, and by Moi too! Great to meet some more AFFers in person. For great company and entertainment, sure beats following bots on twitter!

Thanks to Nigelinoz for being the catalyst.

Till next we meet...

Cheers skip & mrs

Were any of the BNE/DRW/BNE F/A's the usual suspects ie Narelle, Tony, Marnie, Gaby, Mim or Louis? DRW is a fairly senior trip so often the F/A's who bid for & get those trips each have between 20-30 years service under their belt (one has 40 years). :shock: :shock:

Where did you stay in the 'ville Sam?

It was Narelle! Had a good chat in the air. Not sure of other names, was hard to see sometimes.

And I stayed at the Ibis, not sure why everyone has such a bad view of it, I slept well.

Sounds like a great night was had by all, a shame I missed it. If I'd known my flight would be delayed by over an hour I may have risked the journey...

Thanks to everyone who turned up for another good Brisbane drinks night. Thanks to NigelinOz for getting the thread started.

For a change we decided to have our drinks night at MJ bar which is part of the Holiday Inn next to Roma Street Station.

Those in attendance were:
NigelinOz
GPH (First time attendee)
Boss Reggie
Simo
Mal
Pineappleskip + Mrs Pineappleskip
Katie (first time attendee)
Stark
Lindsay Wilson
Greggsy (another first timer)
Trippin_the_rift
Travel Guru
anat0l
Bundy Bear
Tassie Devil

It was good to see the regulars plus a few newcomers, thanks for everyone who attended.

Apologizes
Samh004 (he was mileage running)
awilcockson (I think weather could have been an issue, and also saving up those browny points is important as well)
Penegal (he had to work, slack and he was in Brisbane as well.)
Ozbeachbabe (another who had to work, well 3:00am starts are no fun)
Taezar (I guess hanging out in the First Lounge In Melbourne isn't such a bad place to be)
storyteller (attending the Oneworld Mega Do)
Major (Holidaying on Moreton Island, but no big chain properties there so I am surprised any AFF member would go there.
Keith009 (back in Melbourne, he wants to spend as much time away from the Brisbane heat as possible)
(I hope everyone is fine with my attempt at humour)

Now to decide on a Brisbane drinks for February, as this previous poster suggested.

Does the name Michael Hegerty ring any bells?

It was all about the weather, I had permission to attend but the thought of public transport in torrential rain (plus the 20 minute walk to work after getting off the bus and then further walk to work) was too painful to even think about. I still had permission in the afternoon when the rain eased off, but by then I'd driven to work and my no drink and drive rule meant that I was still out. But I'm sure I'll make up for it on Saturday

And now my SC’s have posted I can update my signature

Perhaps Feb Drinks could tie into the FT AGM?

Does one really need to apologize if doing a mileage run? Surely doing that is as good as a note from Mum.

Only if you have a note from Qantas!
