Return to Rockford - 2nd April 2017

[Doug_Westcott]

I'm in, just let me know the name of the restaurant when finalised and whether or not it is BYO.

 

[samh004]

As I arrive just before 7 I'm not sure I'll make it to dinner?

 

[Steady]

Good question.... Web results say that Wah Hing does not allow BYO...

Perhaps we need to think again... for a location that allows BYO

I'm with Doug_Westcott - count me in wherever it ends up and I am happy to bring something (but I need to know a week before as the Return to Rockford event is at the end of a work trip)

I'm considering of changing my flight to the afternoon QF1555 (steady, Katy plane - lounge party!)
If we go to a BYO I could bring something with me

It would be good if you manage it - Buzz is also on QF1555

Waves hand for dinner ...

We could share an Uber straight to the restaurant, the airport is so close to town it's unlikely we would be too late , so long as we both have HLO !
What time is the suggested kick off? Given we have an early start, I can't see myself having a big night, and dragging wine all the way to ADL seems a bit like coals to Newcastle, so I'm inclined to buy something there. And if the choice is Chinese food (one of my favorites) I will drink a beer and / or green tea.

If nobody else is organising something, sure why not...!

Drinks - Collins Bar Hilton Adelaide...?

Dinner - Wah Hing Restaurant...? A popular place we have been to before which seemed OK

85 Gouger St, Adelaide SA 5000

A Chinese meal sounds good to me, will we do share plates with a divvy up on the food price? Or will everyone want to have their own dish?
I am otherwise happy to go with the flow. Some of the Qld contingent don't land until 6.50, so anything before 7.30 pm is too tight schedule wise for us.

Sounds like a plan!

So 7:30 for dinner...?

Just need rough numbers before I book.

For dinner the night before, we're a maybe. We'll have Miss 10 with us, and would need to bring her to dinner. I understand that having a kidlet along may not be to everyone's liking, as it is otherwise really an adults weekend.

 

[RooFlyer]

Still in.

I personally don't have an issue.

Neither, and will go where GPH goes.

I'm a bit of a rough number...please count me in.

I have no issue with miss 10 kidlets at restarants ... From my experience Asian restaurants have none either.

For the sake of simplicity, please confirm that I am not attending.

With a recent bereavement in my family, I have to change a lot of my travel plans to support the family and I'm unlikely to attend anything social for a little while.

Thanks for understand.

I'm sure those attending will have a fantastic time. Buzz puts on a great show!

 

[Steady]

7.30pm sounds good
I have kids - no problem for me if a 10 yr old comes along
Beer if eating Asian food rather than BYO wine makes sense to me.

Should a separate thread should be started?
Some locals may not monitor this thread if they are not 'Returning to Rockford' - I vaguely recall FroggerADL mentioning interest and CaptJCool is usually up for a meal somewhere.

 

[Doug_Westcott]

Aeolus also mentIoned she may be interested in a dinner.

 

[Buzzard]

Dinner?? I'm free. Only me though. I'll do Collins bar too.
