MEL AFF Christmas Do Sat 19 Dec 2015 (fully booked)

[mel-world]

Somehow I missed this until it was fully booked. Maybe next year. I hope everyone has a relaxing celebration despite the weather.

Likewise, I hope everyone has a wonderful dinner. I wish I could have made it but current domestic crises forced me to withdraw. Definitely will try for next year, maybe see everyone earlier at a CAN III event.

A few of us gathering in the Hilton lounge for afternoon tea if anybody would like to join us.

Sideways. But a great view from level 47 with my new fisheye lens.

Blustery south wind just hit Port Melbourne - temp's dropped 12° in five minutes.

I have just come across this thread - I had no idea this event was on tonight - any chance I can come along and join in?

Big squishy drops of rain diluting my G&T on the rooftop terrace at Port Melbourne. Wind's picking up more and more....... shame about the hairdo!!

Bucketing down in Essendon while waiting for our taxi

Looks threatening. Probably blow my wig off

Change of weather can only be a good thing. On my way.

A late withdrawal, Mrs Leadman has been taken out with a migraine from the Melbourne heat, but I will be there, jetlagged and all. So there is a spare spot. She was giving herself to the last minute but no good.

 

[Buzzard]

Some of us have already started. Actually we started a few hours ago

I'll see if I can order an Uber ASAP - that's legal in Vic now isn't it - I would never use them if I was breaking the law!

Is this a windup?
