2012 AFF Christmas Event and Dinner [22nd Dec, Melbourne]

[munitalP]

Hi all


The Christmas event is as follows:

1730 - 2000: Drinks, Canapes, prizes, industry expert talk and Kris Kringle

2000 - 2030: Migrate to Pure South (approx 15 minute walk) www.puresouth.com.au

2030 - finish: Dinner

The following is the restaurant current menu - as it is a way off till the event, some produce items may change, however, the staples will be the same and as you can see, this is a lovely menu. The produce is selected from Tasmania's finest, and the write ups on this restaurant are amazing - you can read them on their website.

Please note - there is one choice per person from entree, main and desert.

Drinks are extra.

The components of the dishes may change before Christmas and fresh product will determine some items - the menu will be updated in December, but other than that, no changes. The meal cost is $99.00 per person.

The restaurant is limited to 30 people only and a deposit will be required. (they have agreed to an additional 8 seated)


If you are attending, please PM me with details.


anat0l has kindly offered his help in collecting all the Hilton booking details - can you assist him by sending these details when he requests it. As per usual, these details are required for the Hotel (nudge nudge wink wink)

Thanks

[Bundy Bear]

Add me to dinner, and add me as booked on JQ35.

 

[penegal]

Please mark me as platinum for dinner. More than happy to pre-pay via cash or CC once the method is worked out.

Regarding JQ35, I won't commit at this stage, but currently 80%.

 

[BlueAU]

JQ35 and Dinner! Will be there! and thank you munitalP for organising as usual! :mrgreen:

 

[straitman]

Please add myself and +1 for dinner.

 

[haydensydney]

What was the date again?

 

[anat0l]

What was the date again?

Saturday 22 December.

 

[Heleigh]

Have PM to you re diner - as stated in PM I'm a Platinum for dinner (menu looks great) and 90% for JQ35 just waiting to get ticket and will have a guest spot available (and let you know when ticketed) - also payment no issues. Again thanks for organizing everything.

 

[kpc]

Plat for dinner and JQ35.
Thanks

 

[anchew]

I'm platinum for dinner and JQ35 too. Can guest 1 for JQ35.

 

[trippin_the_rift]

Platinum for dinner here

 

[awilcockson]

Platinum for dinner and JQ35 please

 

[TonyHancock]

PM sent +1 and I platinum for dinner.

 

[samh004]

At this stage I'll bow out of taking up a guest spot for the dinner, simply because my attendance would have to be approved and the way things have been going I'm not sure on anything.

That said, I'm still very keen to join in on the F run, and if I do, as a WP won't need anyone to help me in as in the past, but shall keep you appraised of my work in making that happen.

[Hvr]

Please mark me as platinum for dinner. More than happy to pre-pay via cash or CC once the method is worked out.

Me too. But not for J*

Have now paid deposit.

 

[Bundy Bear]

Hi all

The restaurant is limited to 30 people only and a deposit will be required. The method for payment of the deposit will be sorted out within a week or so.

If you are attending, please PM me with details.

Which takes priority, PM, posting on this thread or the Facebook page,

You are going to get to 30 within 12 hours at this rate, will need a box for the wait list.

I guess to say you are going to attend is going to be different to those who actually pay up in a hurry.
