I'm registered (and Mrs QF WP just in case she wants an extra 1K points and a night out). Also emailed my brother as he's a powder junkie....

* bump *

With it's impending date in Brisbane (Friday 24 June @ Hilton), I though it best to update the list of who I think it going:

QF WP & Mrs QF WP
bravoecho
IainF
Bundy Bear
ozmerish
dOOt


Any others who signed up and haven't advised us here??

Now, I'd presume that it's in the Grand Ballroom (and I'm thinking of getting a room for the night as it's Mrs QF WP's birthday the next day - but sorry, no drinks in my room afterwards). I'd suggest that as most of us know me by sight (with the exception of bravoecho), so what say we "meet" underneath the circular stairwell at some stage??

Now, with all the WP's there, will they offer us drinks??

QF NB, I hope you have registered (it does say limited numbers on the website), but not sure whether registrations have "finished".

Lovely (the scotch that is, not the thought of you soaking in the cabana..)

What's worse, I only read this thread for the first time tonight - the very time that the SYD show is almost over. Bummer. Thinks to self: is it worth it for an evening trip to BNE?

I had forgotten to sign up previously I thought that I had missed out until I had read the advert this morning in the Courier Mail. Now signed up, so yes I plan to be there. Thanks for the reminder QF WP>

og, what better way to attend another FT Do, collect some SC's and FFP's and see the show at the same time ^ - even a weekend or day in BNE with Mrs og.

(hopefully the weather next weekend will be better than it was this weekend )

I was in a pretty bad car accident just this past weekend so I'm not sure if I'll be there due to a few pending problems that have transpired since from this... have to wait and see

Sorry to hear about your predicament, d00t. I hope it works out OK for you.

I'll attend the presentation. Hey, I even like skiing!

when reality and Flyertalk collide...

Anders..? Is that you..?

I'm going to be there friday night for the event... bet you'll recognize me (think geostationary satellite, not flyertalk...)

Small world, no?

Cheers,
Corbetti

It should be an interesting event. Do skimax think that Qantas Frequent Fliers will spend more money on average than most other people.
d00t hope things work out for the best for you.
It should be an interesting event as I am looking at going to the Northern Hermisphere sometime in the future.

Hmmm... you've got me intrigued. Perhaps the world is smaller still with live video from space?

Cheers,

Cannot make it...

Hi QF WP et al,

Won't be coming to the QF and FTLAK gathering on Friday as a friend and I have decided we're heading for Armidale. BOM (for those that don't know, BOM = Bureau of Meteorology) are forecasting snow down to 600m possibly reaching the QLD border. They have also said this could be one of the best snow dumps in years ^

I sent my QP application form off today (now that I am legal age to enter by myself ) so I might see some of you around the country on my travels and maybe at another meet!

Cheers
David
