Guess they don't count fly-by-wire, jet engines, and planes as technology...

It's like the Global Warming love fest that flies people all around the world to attend a conference in the hottest part of the world and using the air conditioning to the max. Convenient technology ban when it suits.
 
Really? So much for a life of tithing and poverty!!! We had a brief stint of EB when I was growing up in country Victoria but obviously my father did not embrace them as we ended up Methodist!

Interesting, as I believe you are born into it, they dont recruit.
Also, why the reference to poverty, I am yet to meet any Brethren who are short of a quid, with the majority being successful business owners. I know its OT, but ....

Yeah, the poverty was a bit left field (think that was just us at the time) but I know my father took us off to brethren meetings in the 1950s. He was on a mission (pardon the pun) to find a family religion for us. We were also in country Victoria so things may have been different then. I think we did not stay long.

My wife answered a job for an English Teacher in the paper - it turned out to be teaching at an EB school... She was well paid at private school rates and they looked after her in the 18 months she spent there. I ended up going to some school functions and they were really nice kids when you talked to them. I can also confirm the ones I met are mostly successful business owners.

Mods: might need to move this to a new subject in the playground?

Wouldn't worry about a new thread - think it is probably done and we can get back to the topic. Which is what we are waiting to hear about (for those who are not attending) - we want to know everything!
 
Travel arrangements are being organised now.
 
Not for me! ;)

Thanks serfty for updating the attendees.

So still two clandestine attendees...
 
Got my travel arrangements from Qantas just over an hour ago. Arranged as a day trip for me. Morning wake up is not too bad.

Yup suspect us BNE-ites have the same flights; race is on to the front of the cabin! :D

Think I'll lose. See you at row 9 ...
 
It's 12 noon Princess F. Is Shrek going batch for dinner that night?
 
Thanks guys,
Just checked my emails and have received one from "Ana" at QF
I will be on the 8 am train.
Pushka if the lunch is anything like the last event I will have no need for dinner :D :lol:
 
It turns out I have to fly to MEL on Tuesday for work.

I have asked Ana to offer it to another AFFer. I'm gutted!

Like = I agree with your disappointment. I'm not actually happy about it.
