Sorry I had to sink my pint and run. It was lovely to put faces to handles and to see some others again. Have a great night all.

 

[Princess Fiona]

Should be there in two, sorry if I missed anyone !

Apologies guys. Bout of headlice in Miss 11 needed an "All hands on deck" approach according to Mrs 11!

I guess that makes you a late scratching.

Itching to get away, I bet.

Well dinner (pasta) was beautiful, company was great, many varied and interesting discussions, and the rose between many thorns.

I've piked out and gone home as the mains arrived (eventually). Hope everyone has a wonderful night.

See you at next post late July Perth get together.

Great to finally make an AFF meet up = sorry I could only stay for a drink.

Thanks all for coming - and John/Fiona for getting it across the line.

 

[Princess Fiona]

A wonderful evening. Thankyou to JohnM for organising and to all those that came along.
I'm now safely back in the Hyatt after being dropped off in cove's taxi.
Another 10 hour day of work tomorrow awaits

 

[Bundy Bear]

What a great turn out and the venue was rather pleasant as well.

We had 12 in attendance at least for a drink and then 8 stayed for dinner, I will post a food group photo for QF WP, the food was nice, thanks to the person who chose the venue.

In attendance in no particular order.

When shintaro10x plans his trip in June will try and organise another gathering.

To those that are traveling through June, JohnM and Reggie please enjoy your journey; whoever you are flying with.

 

[JohnM]

Just home. Great night, excellent company and a very good venue IMO, so thanks to, I think, vitagen for suggesting it.

 

[cove]

With so many new bars having opened in the city what used to be a mass of humanity a few months ago has changed into a much more pleasant venue now. I went the barra and it was worth the wait at The Trustee.
I passed on ordering what I consider to be one of the least drinkable beers in Australia (Rogers) and settled on a Coopers light.
Shintaro10x has really shone with his use of RAA Wish Gift cards since we last had dinner in Adelaide. Qwibble for Dans and Woolies gift was a fail so back to starthere and gift cards is working.
A lovely group of AFFers who are from a quite diverse range of occupations so if you never go to one you may never know.
Reggie flys to Manchester to avoid his dislike for Heathrow as his entry point to England. Emily Howard was looking great so with a bit of luck Bundy Bear's phone photo shoot works out.
Princess Fiona was not looking forward to a walk back to her hotel in heels so we did the taxi service in an old Ford Falcon wagon. Our taxi driver had to submit to a booze bus stop and test and was silent when he was told that one of his rear lights was out of action.
Thanks JohnM for getting us a dining spot last night. He is of course a product of 3 years at Wembley Primary.

Quite an excellent night. Thanks to all who had input into it. Great to meet some people and be able to put faces to names. PF was, of course looking stunning ... quite like royalty infact.

EH

 

[QF WP]

Lovely to see another AFF meet. Alas, I wasn't online last night so missed the blow by blow description.

Still no photo of EmilyHoward - she must have been off powdering her nose.

That's got to be bigger than any MaM that I have done over the last 5 years - just goes to show that Royalty pulls a bigger crowd than a Moderator!!

I'm trying to organise another PER trip - June or July. Will try and see if shintaro10x and I can be there at the same time...
