BNE Monthly Gathering Thread

For the last few months we have been organising a Brisbane Monthly Get together. The idea started on another place and as almost everyone is a Fter I thought it would be a good idea to mention it in the community part of Flyertalk.

The next one is scheduled on the Wednesday 28th January 2009 same place as previous.

The venue is The Mill Hotel Bar & Restaurant. It is located on Wickham Terrace, on the corner of Bartley St, next to Brisbane Private Hospital, opposite the old Tower Mill and ~100 metres from Jacobs Ladder.

Attendees:

JohnK
Aus Mal
Bundy Bear
Wallacej

Apologies
Anat0l
QF WP
Freddie Jr (Yes Freddie has attended 2 previous meetings.

A photo from our previous meeting: 17 December 2008.

Each time/month we have a get together planned I stick a mention of it here.

Now if anyone is coming to Brisbane then we can arrange a different part of the month, venue won't change as its easier to have the same place as most of us work in or near the city.

If some are on Saturdays (assuming they are held in the evening) then I may be able to make some of them. The fare wars means it is cheap and easy to get to & from BNE at the moment.

I work in Brisbane through the week and I am in BNE at that time. Any of those days suits but probably better on Wednesday or Thursday night.

I live very close to the Mill Hotel so I would prefer that to be the venue and the restaurant takes orders until 8:30pm and is priced reasonably with a decent choice of food.

If anyone else is interested we can make it a mini gathering on 11 or 12 February....

Darn.
I'm really sorry, but I got all the dates mixed up.
I will be in BNE for sure Tues Feb 10th, 2009 to Wed Feb 11th, 2009 morning. (maybe even the 9th depending what happens with my scuba diving)
Then I am flying out to SYD on the Wed the 11th and overnighting to the Thurs the 12th in SYD.
Then flying out on the 12th to the USA.

So we can meet up Tues the 10th of Feb and possibly the 9th if I am in BNE on the 9th, but for sure the 10th.

As discussed earlier we can meet at the Mill Hotel Bar & Restaurant in Spring Hill around 6:00pm. It is located on Wickham Terrace, on the corner of Bartley St, next to Brisbane Private Hospital, opposite the old Tower Mill and ~100 metres from Jacobs Ladder.

At this stage Bundy Bear and I will be there and there is a chance that Aus_Mal will be there as well. We will be sitting on the tables out the front. Ask at the bar for John....
