Smile berlinflyer's birthday dinner in SYD....you are invited!!

Dear fellow LH FTers,

as I will be travelling on my very first *Alliance RTW in J, I had the chance to add a stop-over in SYD on my birthday. This will bring me to this great city on the 26th of March and I would like to invite all of you (whoever is in SYD that day) to my brithday dinner. Also, this will be my very first visit to SYD at all and I am very excited, eventhough I can only spend one night (staying at the Hilton)

Berlinflyer Birthday Dinner

UPDATED
Day: March 26th 2007
Location: Eat City Restaurant
Level 1, City Hotel, 349 Kent Street (Cnr King)
Sydney CBD 2000
Time: 8pm
Dress Code: Casual, for sure

If you would like to come and meet me and hopefully some more flyertalkers for dinner an drinks, please let me know!

Travel tip - offering to buy drinks for Australians can be a very expensive mistake .....

Happy birthday in advanced, berlinflyer!

Put me down as a 'maybe' for now - will try to make the short hop over to SYD for your bday (or a 'stroll' as weero calls it) if I don't get spirited away to CBR that day!

C'mon, I heard you are paying off your credit card in instalments after your most generous dinner hosting here last year!


berlinflyer - MargoOz and I will quite likely be around that week, so please note us down as "definite maybe's".

Happy Advance birthday.

And thank your lucky stars is is not this weekend - 75th Anniversay of the Sydney Harbour Bridge with about 250,000 walking over it AND St. Patrick's Day .. all on the same day. Yikes.

Ich bin ein, Berliner

If aus is out and ein is in, then ich bin ein must mean I am in

Yeah, I wondered about that, but since it doesn't make any sense with the comma...

Btw, isn't it nice that everybody celebrates their birthday in SYD... me, berlinflyer, the bridge...

In the strangled quasi-German of the person I was trying to mimic, this means "Count me in, Berliner"

And very much looking forward to it

If you will come QF, I shall postpone my return to SIN by one day and stay the 26th in Sydney.
No one gets voluntarily 'spirited' away to Canberra (unless you meant a ride on a Honda CBR)! These are the legends misunderstood by the uninitiated settlers !

Can I bring my friend as I promised her a dinner on the last evening?

Well if you can convince the pollies to disband that day...
Otherwise I'd be bundled onto a Qantas Link Crash-8 and taken up kicking and screaming to CBR.

Yes, of course you can bring your friend. And maybe postponing your trip to SIN by one day will bring you into the 77W (new C)?? Ehm, no.....probably not. If you rebook, they will probably change the equipment in the last minute...caled the weero-effect
