what time on the 6th?

 

[serfty]

The booking is for 7:30pm ... last race is at 5:10pm, so there should be plenty of time (Unless yo need wait for correct weight after a protest or something)

 

[bossreggie]

Hey All.

I'm not familiar with this hotel. Are we meeting at the restaurant or is there a bar we are meeting at for a wee drink??

In a previous meet, punters met at Lagerfeld, which is just a 5 minute walk along the Yarra, past the "Polly Woodside" to the Hotel/Restaurant.

Lagerfield Bar & Beer Garden - Crown

That would be a good place to meet up if any wish to do so.

Crown to Hilton South Wharf

 

[oz_mark]

I was planning at stopping by at Lagerfeld for a tipple.

 

[Bundy Bear]

I am a scratching attending another flyertalk event Stamega Do 2.

You may have read about it

 

[oz_mark]

Looks like it will be me+2 attending :shock:


Also, for anyone interested, will be at Lagerfeld sometime between 5.30 and 6 for some pre-dinner drinks.

Pre meet: Lagerfeld, which is just a 5 minute walk along the Yarra, past the "Polly Woodside" to the Hotel/Restaurant.

Lagerfield Bar & Beer Garden - Crown

It's a short walk along the Yarra past Jeff's shed to Dinner.

Crown to Hilton South Wharf

Please check this list and confirm/advise any changes. (Also if you are attending Lagerfeld)

 

[notzac]

Put me down as a possible please. Unsure of attendance, but I'll try to be there.

 

[Sprucegoose]

I would very much like to attend but I am unable for Nov. It will be a goal in the new year.

Enjoy the evening. I would be interested in feedback on the Hilton and how they are performing.


cheers SPRUCE

 

[drewbles]

Somehow forgot about this one. If there's room i'll be in for dinner as well please serfty. If not, I'll be at Largerfield as I work across the road, and if people venture out to 18o6 or other places i'll be there for sure.

I would be interested in feedback on the Hilton and how they are performing.

Indeed. I'm hearing a lot of good things about H South Wharf and have been planning on trying them out - although they're going to have to try hard to beat the "Welcome back Mr Ewing" as I stepped out of the cab at the Westin last week

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the dinner. I'll be sitting in the J lounge in BNE waiting for a flight home at about that time, otherwise I'd consider joining you all.
