The QFF CEO event thread (and AFF associated interactions)

[Leumas]

Personally, I'd pop down to Martin Place or George St to the Lindt Cafe for a hot chocolate and a macaroon.

Morning

Oh shut up. Skite.

Since when is Starbucks anything other than cruel and unusual punishment? Surely there is better coffee to be had in the Sydney CBD..?

Notzac - novelty factor. We don't have it in cairns.

Actually, there's a lot if things we don't have in cairns. A first (or even second) world postal system for one.

You can send mail to New Zealand faster than you can to Cairns.

Morning. Sleep well?

Indeed. Very nice room, just killing time now waiting for lunch

+1 to that. Have been missing my Hazelnut Hot Chocolates back in Perth.

OK I'm all dressed and packed.

Are you guys meeting up somewhere now?

Feeling a bit hungry, but don't want to ruin my appetite ...

 

[awilcockson]

Oh shut up. Skite.

C'mon Lawlass, chilli prawn and crab stack at Sichuan House has got to be almost as good as rockpool, right?

Agreed, very nice room, comfortable bed, and a shower with decent pressure and heat.

I would suggest it is about time for LawLass to organize a Chilli Prawn & Crab Stack @ Sichuan House run, with first course being lunch in a convenient QF Flounge.

So were there 7 of you there at the Radisson last night? Some are flying in this morning and Princess Fiona is on a train, Leumas and simongr are probably at work but not really concentrating on it this morning (well I know simongr isn't )

I'm off to Bretts Wharf for lunch, so I'll feel the love of somebody else taking me to lunch...just not a flight to SYD, a night in a hotel room and... (I don't want to go on...)

Hope simongr, awilcockson and/or drewbles will throw me some titbits via FB

T -1 hour

 

[simongr]

A bit late but Blue Stone Deli isn't bad around there.

 

[drewbles]

Morning

Ohai there!

We all meeting downstairs at 11:45? I know we're meant to be checked out by then, but meh

Hi Guys,

Thanks to whoever it was who linked me in to this thread. As I mentioned yesterday I haven't been on much so was late in letting people know I was going. I haven't time this am to read all the replies etc.

What I am wondering is: I have never met anyone in real life from AFF so (and I suspect I should have read this!) how are AFF people going to recognise each other as (obviously) my real name isn't EmilyHoward LOL?

Will be on to check pre 12.30pm!

EH

 

[Princess Fiona]

Hi EH the lunch starts at 12 o'clock.
I've arrived in CBD currently browsing in David Jones and will wander up to Radisson for 11.45.
Should be easy to spot me, black dress, red cardi

Just look for a bunch of guys with laptops or phones or iPads in their hands and busily typing away. Also look for AFF baggage tags on their laptop bags.

 

[awilcockson]

"Emily" meet us in the lobby of the radisson blu at 11:45. We aren't hard to spot
Start time had moved to 12 in case you didn't know

 

[EmilyHoward]

Ta will do! Also wasn't aware of the time change so thanks! Must get off now!
