You'll not be disappointed......

Cool, Looking forward to it John, I'm finishing work in 15 mins, get a few hours sleep & fly at midday.
Hopefully will have caught up on sleep before tomorrow night.

Re: Bordy heads west! Perth Beerathon: Fri 15th July.
Just had a look at the website for the pub in the hotel you're staying in Bill.
They say they have a,"modem day context"????
Well I suppose that'll suit all us internet addicts!!
They call it, "The Oak & Ivy, (A British pub).....
Well I'll tell you what....... 99% of Perth locals have probably never bloody heard of it!
I certainly haven't!
That's probably why it shuts at 9 o'clock....
As I said though, your hotel is only 5 min's walk from Northbridge, & you'll be spoilt for choice there, pubs wise. A lot of the pubs there stay open till about 5 or 6 in the morning...

Re: Bordy heads west! Perth Beerathon: Fri 15th July.
OK.....!!!!
The age old question rears its head again!
Most of us who are going on the furious drinkathon on Friday will know & recognise each other.
But, as always happens, the new people who are coming won't!
Gillian & I are gonna meet Bill & Mary, (The Bordy's) at their hotel & point them in the right direction.
The Brass Monkey is always pretty busy on a Friday night, so the best bet is, anybody who's coming along, & hasn't met any of the Perth crowd before, send me a PM & I'll give you my mobile No.
That way, you can phone me when you get to the pub, & I'll find you and get you to buy me a drink.......
Shit....... I mean, I'll introduce you to the others....

I'll see what I can do...
He's missing the Pies v Bombers game as well.
We'll be able to see it in the pub though.
It's on TV in Perth at 8.30pm, (WA time).
That's a 3 hour delay, so no texting Bill with the score
before its even started here!!!

Sorry you guys can't make it.
I spoke to Bill today on the phone, & the wedding he's going to tomorrow isn't until night time, so it'll probably be a late one tonight...
Just go with your idea & jump in a taxi to the pub later on.
Better than waiting at the computer for people to start coming home!!
If you don't make it, We'll see you at Mairi & Chris' tomorrow...

Had a great night!
Was great meeting Mr and Mrs Bordy, and a few 'newbies', and meeting some again.
All you girls must come to the girls night out on Sat 13th of August at the Burswood!

Hope the Bordy's enjoy the rest of their stay. They were planning to go to Freo today or tomorrow.
