Alright, I'm in. :)

Should we be expecting a small speech or mini lecture? Suffice to say the ambience might be a small issue, which is a shame because the space is actually rather nice.

Shame I've used up all my shop small credits!

It would have depended on how much you can eat, or how much of a tab you could run up before paying, because don't forget there's a $20 minimum before Shop Small kicks in. (That said, since there are two of you, that might have been rather easy to hit.)
 
Ok, I have added both the 29/11 and 7/12 to the calendar. Unless anything urgent pops up I'll be there.
 
Do we still need to register on EventBrite via Rapid Travel Chai?

As you say, the background sounds may make a mini lecture difficult, but if it is quietish early on it could be an possibility.

(Also, I checked & Tuesday night does not have the 8pm song competitions etc that are there on a Wednesday.)

I was just thinking the same. For the uninitiated, is there a secret hand shake or sign we should look for?

It will be great to have you there. And think of the fun of walking in & trying to work out if we look different ;). Also see my other post on table etc.

Ha! That reminds me of the 1st time I met any of this crowd.. It was in the SYD F Lounge. I wasn't sure I wanted to make myself known, so walked past the group several times to check things out.. Then decided it would be okay, no mass murders amongst them, they all looked quite normal if a bit animated, and walked over. Promptly got my foot caught between the chair legs & fell face first onto the coffee table, with food & drinks & people scattering everywhere.

Way to make an entrance & be remembered ;)

was uncertain if I should bring my husband. He knows nothing about miles/points/travel hacking.

Not the same event, but it was Storyteller who first planted the seed in my +1s head about wisely using CCs to accumulate points. Now my wife even knows which card to use at which shops and even managed the recent $150 HH cash back with AMEX.

Ah yes. I think it was on the full day of flying as many sectors & visiting lounges that I suggested after VA decided to have a WP level & matched QF. Only in the last year did I realise I could have done better with the naming of the Event & descriptions.. :O
 
For the beer drinkers, this venue does jugs of one fifty lashes for $22. So that's a $12 jug with the shop small promo.

I can picture it now! Everyone sitting around with their $12 drink in front of them.. And I have 3 AMEX cards :O

For the benefit of Amex, yesterday I mapped a pub crawl based on the shop small promo. I did very well at all venues, as did my friends. At one venue, a friend requested that her bill be rounded up to $20. Following an explanation about the shop small promo, he gave her 50 cents from the till. Legendary!
