Okay, we are now in February, so I am happy to confirm some details:


Date / Time:
6pm - Wed 20 Feb 2013.

Venue:
Bear Brass in Southbank / Southgate.

Bear Brass is on the ground floor of the Southgate Plaza building (on the river side). NB: You do not need to go into the building to enter the venue as it is one of the many resturants which is half inside, half outside.

On Wednesdays Bear Brass have a $15 'pizza & pint' special.

This is a laid back venue, so I don't anticipate it being busy, however I have made a booking as a courtsey. Please try to confirm your status by the Monday prior so I can advise BearBrass of numbers.

Happy New Year folks!

I think it's about time we had another drinks night down in the capital of the Democraitc People's Republic of Victoria (DPRV).

Although I am technically a resident, I am feeling like more and more of a foreigner in Melbourne. As such, I am happy to take venue suggestions, but I think we should keep this in the CBD. I have a couple of ideas, but happy to see what people suggest before locking down the venue.


Wednesday 20 February, 6pm onwards
Venue: TBC



Can those who are "Interested / Maybe" please let me know which way you are swinging. I will update my "booking" with the venue, and then try to arrive early to make sure we have an appropriately sized area.

One suggestion I had was Father's Office in QV. For those not familiar with the venue, it is the old Match Bar with a facelift designed to make it look older (tacky?). It should be cheaper than the last venue and it is close to Chinatown, Melbourne Central and the QV complex, should we wish to head elsewhere. It is cheap and has a happy hour. The downside is that the wine list is quite limited.

Colour me interested - should be able to attend, but my chariot for home departs by 8pm ...
 
if I am in town I'm interested... Like you penegal i feel like i'm a stranger here too!
 
Highly unlikely. Wednesdays will be mostly out for me shortly (as well as Mondays).

PS. Is this part of your 'healthy 2013' plan penegal? :p
 
Will depend on work, grant season is a little crazy.
 
It's my official day off that day, but depends how crazy the days leading up to are. Maybe

Sounds good to me depending upon work (i.e. if I am working and what time of day I am working).

Hmmm... I absolutely do not remember agreeing to this. But I guess I could put it in the diary.

If its not set in stone, Bear Brass has the awesome pizza-and-pint deal on Wednesdays :)

Be great to meet you if you can make it along.

Good point - I enjoyed that last time.

The deal is $15 for a 'gormet' pizza and a pint of Boags on Wednesdays.
