AFF Sydney Wine Meet Ups

[AnonymousCoward]

I take it from your kind offer, AC, you will be coming. Which is great.

Unfortunately, due to some changed work commitments, I don't think I'll be able to make lunch. I might be able to come at the beginning to drop off some wine that you guys have ordered though.

I am still trying to wrangle the ability to come!

Work is intense but I might be able to come for about 40min or so but I'll be on a tight turnaround

NoShows: penegal

I am not sure that I am a no show, I indicated my non-attendance previously.

 

[QF WP]

Wording in previous post duly changed to better reflect your inability to attend penegal. One day I'll catch up with you again - not for want of not trying.

Looking good for the lunch today. Finished meetings early so here with plenty of time

 

[QF WP]

Here we are - minus me as I took the photo



Lunch - Thai Beef Salad (was great and complemented the wine)



Burger time - not a small pattie either



But the real question - what is this?

But the real question - what is this?

Feeding the birds again QF WP?

 

[QF WP]

It wasn't mine to feed the pigeons and ibises outside. It had a very pale white colour so when it turned up (ordered by one of the participants), we all thought it had to be snapped.

Maybe it as the conviviality of the wine (thanks to Wozza) and company; because I had really good afternoon meetings with clients.

I must make the effort to be in tyown for one of these, even if it is just a down in the morning and back in the evening, looks like fun
