Sydney - Feb 15-20
Since I can't make that FAB BARFTA Do in LHR, I decided to come to SYD for the week. Anyone going to be around? Anyone want to get together for drinks (or drinkies as our LHR people call them)/food/debauchery/whatever? I will be staying near Sydney Harbor (or Harbour for you Aussies). Let me know.
CHEERS!
CHEERS!

Coming live from way overrated Park Hyatt Sydney (good place to burn those FFN's, however).
I will be around here until the 20th of this month and would gladly meet SYD based FT's or visitors over few drinks.

Well I am not sure about the debauchery, but now and again I have been known to imbibe the very occassional adult beverage. 
(As long as it is not warm MILK - non UA board members might need the Google translation.

As a Finn I have learned not to drink only one adult beverage but rather few.

Sorry for being late to respond from Sydney.
I can get together on Saturday evening. I am currently at the Swissotel on Market Street but am switching to the Marriott Sydney Harbour on Saturday. Something in the city would be good - and no Indian food - or you guys are on your own.

Well sadly Saturday night is already spoken for, with a dinner party for friends, but we will be staying in the new Sydney Hilton on this MONDAY if you guys are still about? Or if anyone else is in town Monday evening.
I'll check in around lunch time I'd guess.
