Neal Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I'm in for Friday night but I have I be back in Brisbane on Saturday now. I get in about 4:30pm Friday so I'll just head to my hotel and then straight to Bavarian cafe. Should be fun :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paxter Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 If Neal is coming from Brisbane then I'm expecting a full complement of New South Welshmen. I'll keep updating the first post for attendees. Suggestions for Saturday? Bavarian sounds like a goer for Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paxter Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 Also I should mention: we will probably take EB to the beach on Saturday - it's supposed to be fine and sunny. So yeah, pub lunch at the beach (Manly?) on Saturday and all are welcome to join. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyelesbarrow Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Yay! I'm all for shenanigans!See you guys this Fri/ weekend. So far, I've only 1 Aussie beer since I arrived. This has to be remedied in Sydney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paxter Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 Nil, are you in for Fri as well?@EB: not long to go until it's remedied! :cheers:Although we will be having German beer on Friday night...@Horz: Do you think the Newtown idea is good/bad for Sat? Or have any other ideas for Saturday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Winged Shadow Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Nil, are you in for Fri as well?Yeah, I'll be there. Making up excuses to leave work early tomorrow as we speak! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horza Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 @Horz: Do you think the Newtown idea is good/bad for Sat? Or have any other ideas for Saturday?Depends - if the weather's good and we do Manly I was thinking the Tilbury afterwards, which is a nice scenic walk around the Botanic Gardens from Circular Quay.Otherwise if the weather's not on our side maybe somewhere nice and cosy like the Coopers or the Shakespeare.

delete this account pls Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Arghh, got a few potential issues, but I'll try my best to make it. Best bet is Saturday night. I've got a new phone, so I'll text Pax or Nil when I know more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arantius Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I'll see what I can do, but I can't promise at this stage. The plans sound good so at least I know where to head & I'll text if I can make it. Cross fingers & toes :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paxter Posted July 12, 2012 Author Share Posted July 12, 2012 Brady/Morningsword, hope you guys can both make it. As for Saturday, do you think we should just say to meet at 5 pm at Circular Quay? Then can use the train to go anywhere from there or walk to Wooloomooloo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ithanos Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Alas I won't be able to join you all this time 'round, work deadlines prohibit me travelling today and as I was unsure if i could make it I had accepted dinner plans for tomorrow (beef pho - and those well aware of the preparation involved to make good pho will understand that I needed to have informed my hosts of any change several days ahead).Revel well my friends, and do the Aussie BWB proud, treat Eyelesbarrow to a grand time <waves fondly to EB>. And someone have a draught of cider for me if you're not too pissed to remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
