The totally off-topic thread

Can other Brisbanites (or FT'ers/AFF'ers for that matter) join in?

The more the merrier!

Hey I will be back in Brisbane in a few hours which is still totally alien to me after living there for 3 months....

Anyone from anywhere other than Brisbane has to be considered an alien . I still remember the signs at US immigration at LAX back in the early 1990's (or was it late 1980's??) when the queues for non-US citizens were clearly signed for "Aliens". The current politically correct signs state "Visitors". So I was once an official alien :shock:.

So we're aliens....

Cool. As long as it's not tonight or this weekend Meh just jumping on the bandwagon.

In any case, my vote goes for the Holiday Inn bar at Roma St (out of what's been suggested.) Otherwise, I don't have much preference for place, but I like hotel lounges or bars better. And preferably a place where you don't need to shout louder than at a rock concert to be heard at 50 cm.

See staying on topic is much more productive for the post count

I'm thinking about the thread on FT (OMNI)....

Which reminds me that we need to organise a drink one night...

I am only here till the end of the week then off to Thailand for 2 weeks. If you are interested in a drink this week then send me a PM or post on this thread.

Holiday Inn sounds like a good place to meet and I think I still have a 2 for 1 drink coupon from my stay there in July.

Anyone else interested is also welcome....

Tomorrow meaning Thursday 25/09?

I'd be up for that - as long as there's a quorum.

EDIT:

Isnt thursday the 25th? Or do you mean Wednesday the 24th?

Thanks mr_greg444; stupid mistake on my part. Now fixed

I wonder if that changes people's plans that were reading this thread.... (hopefully for the better - besides, tomorrow is pay day for me )

 

[JohnK]

Yes at this stage it is tomorrow night, Thursday 25/09, and the likely venue is Holiday Inn....

No thanks. Sorry :!:

Maybe I should edit this to say I'm very interested BUT it's not going to happen.

I am, but alas, I won't be there

 

[QF WP]

I'll have to give this one a miss - but keep me on the reminder list for upcoming ones.

Indeed, I will be there. Around 6ish works well for me, so let me know when.

Wonder if they accept Amex
