Xmas Function
I noted that the BA Board has a reference to Xmas Drinkies. Now, to be totally unoriginal, any one interested in developing the concept of an FT Xmas Drinks session somewhere? BNE or SYD springs to mind, but any offers welcome. I note that SYD-DRW is cheap - but the red-eye back home may be somewhat extreme. To get SFSC people together, early notice might make it easier.

Good idea OG
I am in, but would prefer to be before 14th of December as I am heading to Toronto for a wedding. Happy to go where ever is suggested...except for Rockhampton. It has possibly the worst QP in Australia. But that is another topic.....
Cheers
Iain

And since our social coordinator is off socialising in cooler climes, I'll submit his vote for BNE as well ^ . When you get back, QF WP, it will be time to commence the event planning .

What is stopping us from having FT Xmas drinks in BNE, SYD and MEL?? Perhaps at the same time, so we can all log onto FT together...video conferencing would be interesting

I'll be back on-line tomorrow ...have QF 56 to catch (well, relaxing in CHC QP at present, so some beers to sample first)...

I couldn't make it to SYD for the three-days-in-May FT do because I was out of the country, but I should be around for X'mas. If it's not too far, can I join even if I'm not much of a drinker?

Raise your glasses....
Don't forget those of us abroad who cannot make it - I'll be sure to squeeze in a few HP's here. ^

See the 5* dsn thread about FT being blocked at the SYD T1 F QP. (enough abbreviations? )
