I might be keen for this... have had a few very average experiences at the King Street Brewhouse though - isn't much chop in my opinion.

Anyway lets see how the interest goes with other members to see if we can get a crowd along?

Great idea.

A shame I will be off to Thailand the week before....

I'm in. Dont mind the venue. Happy for KPC or others to drive the venue

Food was decent, service a bit meh but still OK last time.

Menu worked for all that attended (iirc). Split bill payments was awesome.

I hate choosing locations for drinks or food for functions. It is never going to be suitable for some portion of those who attend.

Remember a meeting is about catching up with other like minded souls. Its not the price of a drink or the quality of food that makes a meeting (although both help to make it better) but rather learning new things and meeting others that share the passion.

I can't make an ANZAC day meeting. Sorry.

But can I hijack a bit to mention that there is a small group meeting in Sydney on 12 April prior to the QF81 adventure the next day.

I might be tempted. I will check flights/hotel and see.

Another AFFer and I are flying to a small island in the South Pacific the next morning ex-SYD, so we may make an appearance conditional on getting adequate sleep that night (after all, Sydney isn't Tokyo)

Thinking about catching up with AFF's in BNE on the 24th...... could fly down for this on the 25th and then back to CNS for work lunchtime 26th (if I can make the flights work )

Scratch that....

Sorry SYD - but that would require me to take a 6am Deathstar flight to make it back to work in time.... and it doesn't even leave from the Int terminal

 

[Peabody]

I would most likely be in.

Sorry, but I am a scratching. Have a great night, and remember if there are no pictures, it didn't happen!

Sorry KPC. If I book another "social" event before I organise a kitchen for +1, I may lose some vital anatomy....(at least I think they're vital anatomy, not sure +1 agrees :shock.

Bump to see if any more interest

I am still interested... Let me see if I can make it work

I fly into SYD at 16:10 and depart to PER at 19:30. If there's only two (kpc, penegal...?) I could always guest you into the SYD J Lounge if you wanted to change the location...? Not really a serious suggestion as it is hijacking your gathering, but happy to put the thought out there.

 

[haydensydney]

I'm not so keen anymore - moving house. Fun times.

 

[JohnK]

Bump to see if any more interest

I know it is early but I would be keen if someone organised dinner and drinks at the Brewhouse on the Saturday of the Queens Birthday long weekend.

 

[kpc]

I'm now working on ANZAC Day as I've been sick the last couple of days, and given the (lack of) numbers, this event will be postponed to a later date.

Hope you are feeling better kpc

Look forward to catching up with Sydney folk another time soon.
