Default Bris CBD Christmas Meet Tues 23rd December

Christmas Drinks night! Any takers?

We will be meeting on the 16th anyway, but I thought I'd see what interest there is for Tuesday 23rd December...........I'm not working that night so I can make it, and I guess there might be a few other people who are normally working but free cos its Christmas?

Location is Gilhooleys, on the corner of Albert Street and Charlotte Street in Brisbane CBD. They sell Guinness, and Bulmers cider, amongst other tipples, which makes it a perfect meeting place.

Usually one of us there from 5.15ish onwards, and I'm happy to pm my mobile number to anyone who needs it.

Its about 10 minutes from Central Station, and there's a taxi rank outside.

Everyone is welcome, we really are quite a tame and friendly bunch, and Aussies are welcome too

Barring storms, cyclones, husbands that need their dinner, and wives that need the kids looked after we'll be there.

If Spartacus turns up, let him know my hubby loved the beer cooler he put on a thread a while ago. It is Andys birthday today and as the man who has everything it was a cool gift!

Have a fun drink, enjoy

Cheers Sandra

Is the power back n there yet or are you still in darkness.......?

Excellent night, thanks to everyone (except the grotty bar which had no Bulmers or Magners :curse: ).

The next night planned is JANUARY 6th, by which time I will have caught up on my sleep and the rest of you will have sobered up. Yes, Polly is about to experience a sober Christmas AND New Year.....difficult, but when cyclones call...........

A weak tropical low has been located in the Solomon Sea near 9S 155E
1330km NE of Cairns. Some global computer models have analysed this system, forecast a slow SW drift and slowly develop it over the next few days.

(I don't think it'll become a cyclone but you never know.......if it does - look out Bobby, its coming your way
