Melbourne mad cow dinner - Olive Tree 7pm, Wed. 27 Nov2024

[penegal]

Hello folks,

As I continue to suffer the ill affects of mad cow... Denny Crane... I was speaking with a fellow AFF member who just celebrated their 70th birthday recently. [For the record he remembered to attend, but forgot to invite me]. Anyhow, we both noticed that it has been some time since the last gathering of frequent eaters, frequent drinkers and frequent flyers in the capital city of the Democratic People's Republic of Victoria.

Whilst my ever-diminishing mental capacity, and limited numeracy beyond counting my own digits makes it is difficult for me to organise such large gatherings of creatures, however, I am hopeful that another AFF member, of sound mind and body, will be capable of "build[ing] it, and they will come", and indeed I might will attend.

So lets pick a day next month when the stars align with Jupiter and we can have a gathering of like-minded, and different-minded folks in the capital city of Prison Victoria.

Adieu
penegal

Denny Crane... stop merging posts

Yep, Spruce will be here, given he still has a few years left on his sentence.

Pick somewhere decent.

Interested depending on the date.

We plan to be in Victoria for both Crowded House and Coldplay but not for the AFL grand final. It could be our attempt to resuscitate the Victorian economy from doom and gloom.

 

[rainbowgirl]

My kids are now old enough to look after themselves for a few hours so I might be able to come.

 

[RooFlyer]

Interested, depending if Penegal is coming or not (and I'm not saying which way )

 

[whughes3]

Taking bets ?

penegal’s real status for all FT & AFF do’s:- Copper - I won't know until the last minute as work may get in the way or I may have to fly to SIN or somewhere else for one reason or another or I just can't make up my mind. He will show up some time!

I just need a winning football team.

I expect Fitzroy to do the Cats - so I would make a few bookings

@penegal
Do I need a Visa for the DPRV?

 

[QF WP]

Interested as if given enough notice, I can organise a 2 day trip to see clients and a meal with @penegal and friends

 

[LinaLee]

Depends on dates would be keen to join.

 

[straitman]

Interested depending on the date.

So the burning question. Can penegal even remember to turn up for his own event?

@penegal

Yes but we can get you an EVisa for a fee.
