We are a scratching for this year. Still happy to do the usual name tags if someone can arrange to get them there!

I thought my return ticket fell apart but luckily it was just a small glitch and reservation is now in tact, I now have a long enough stop in SYD for the QF F lounge. earlier booking allowed not even 5 min on my way back from my side trip to Japan.

Today, I lost my hotel booking the the Noosa Heads Motel. Its my own fault, trying to save money. I received a letter in the mail from booking . com giving me $90 credit after spending $300 on a my next hotel booking. I thought that would be a good idea. I thought the room would become available again but it didn't so, i'm now booked at the Noosa Hill Resort.

Did the Motel cancel your booking?

No i worded it poorly. I cancelled it thinking it would go back into inventory.

*edit* Of course now its available again. Too late now, I lose my promo if i cancel and move back. At least now i realize its just across the street from where i was staying before but with the discount and the slightly lower rate I'm saving about 25% on the 3 night stay Friday - Monday.

Staying at the Sofitel Thursday thru Sunday. Working on flights from SYD to MCY for Thursday. Heading north to Rockhampton on Monday. Work is getting in the way of play, once again.

Looking to organize a catch up in Brisbane on the Wednesday or Thursday nights before Ozfest.

If you have a preferred day then let me know, I probably start the thread on AFF. but will keep track of both websites to gauge numbers.

I'm in Brisbane both nights. Would probably be a little less jet-lagged on Thursday.

If BNE meet-up is on Wednesday, I would certainly be up for that! However, if majority vote is for the Thursday, I will catch up with people in Noosa, as I head up Thursday afternoon.

Darn! We would have loved to but we're hiring a car at BNE when we land May 23 and driving directly to Noosa for a five-night non-refundable stay.
