Look forward to hearing where and when, and then attending on Sat night.

How does James Squire sound?

Looks OK to me. It has not been finalised but will more than likely make a booking tomorrow.

Any other suggestions? Recommendations?

 

[penegal]

I am flexible regarding venue, I will follow the crowd...

Those with a 2013|2014 Entertainment Book can wiggle a discount using the coupon for James Squire. It is worth noting that there are actually a couple of branches of James Squire. This one is in Docklands at New Quay, which is a bit secluded, but easily accessible by tram.

---

I might stay in the city depending how I feel on the day.

 

[penegal]

And I can upgrade to a yes.

Long time no see

 

[tuapekastar]

I had assumed the Docklands as was not aware of any other James Squire. Ate there about 7 years ago and unfortunately have no real recollection of how good/bad/indifferent it was. Go with the flow also.

 

[AIRwin]

Hi John, I'll be back from London by then so I should be able to make it...

Sorry John, unfortunately I won't be able to attend. Welcome to MEL and I may see you in BNE/OOL next week!

They are dropping off like flies.

7:00pm booking made for James Squire at Docklands in the name of Mark. So add another to the attendance list!

Does a tram from cnr Toorak Rd and St Kilda Road, South Yarra get me directly to Docklands?

No ...

Your best bets are to take a tram up st kilda road and Swanson st to Flinders Street station and either:

- catch a train to southern Cross station, exitouting to the north and walk (past docklands stadium), or

- wait for the free city circle tram heading west along Flinders st (watch out for last service)

[another option would be to take a tram along st.kilda rd and Swanson st to Bourke st, then an 86 tram West to the docklands as I just remembered it has been extended through]

 

[JohnK]

No ...

And that is where local knowledge comes in handy!

 

[penegal]

Looking forward to it

 

[jetlagger]

And so are we!

QF WP and technology don't mix, if you need help I would enlist the services of Straitman.

Ok quick step by step guide on IPhone.

First select check in from top right.

Then select location from list.

Add what you are doing, then bottom left you can add your friends who you are with, or those who should be there, then post.

Easy, and that ends tonight's lesson, and you can go to bed knowing you learnt something.

good work Bundy

 

[Bundy Bear]

Thanks, Simo,

I had added some photos; but then I thought someone wouldn't want there location on AFF.
