Default Girls Night Out in Melbourne....anyone interested?

Well after a bit of consulting with some of the local expats, the general consensus is that we are all gagging for a girle night out on the town, away from the kids and the other halfs

So I thought that we could perhaps meet up a bit earlier in town, say 4pmish and enjoy a few drinks somewhere, then find a nice pub/restaurant and enjoy some food, a few more drinks and of course the fine people.

This also means that we can get home using public transport, if necessary, at a decent time (not too many drunks etc on the train).

Well I hear you all ask enthusiastically, when, when, when???

So a suggestion would be either the last saturday of the school holidays (17th April) as I'm sure that we'll have all had enough of kids by then, or else the 1st May, which will have given us all time to get the kids back to school and have some kind of normalacy return.

For anyone who wants to attend both, that could also be arranged

Okay, so any takers out there?

Regards

Janice

Damn! I'm not arriving in Melbourne till 2 May!!

Am there till 22 May (then move over for good in Sept). I would love to meet up for a girly night (or any social activity, really)- but it would need to be either between, say, 5-21 May or after Mid Sept .

Cheers,
Anya.

I would be interested. Currently living down at Rye on the mornington penninsula but would be willing to travel upto the city.

Either date is OK with me

A quick bump on this one, as I bet there just as many oppressed women in Melbourne needing a fun night out, as there are in other parts of the world....

Hevs, got your name down already but do you want to do the 17th of April or the 1st May (or both even??).

Joh117, you're more than welcome to join the crowd.

Anya4oz, sorry that you're not here for these dates. We will definitely be having more girly nights out.

Snitzy, bears are allowed to come along as long as they've got female bits

Anyone got any ideas of places to eat? Even though I know how to get around the town, have no idea if there's anywhere good to eat, or any good places to go (other than the casino of course!!)

Yes you can as long as you don't exceed your 20 bucks going out allowance. Now $5 at McDs leaves you $15. Go girl make us some money

Put your chips on the red square or the black square. How easy is that?? They've even got electronic roulette now where you bet on a touch screen.

I love going to the casino so am more than happy to accommodate any active participants.

Thought I'd bring this back to the top.

So after some personal discussion, it looks like the 1st May is going to be the best date for everyone to do this.

How about we all meet up at Flinders Street Station at about 4pm? We can wander along to the Crown Casino for a bit of a flutter, and then walk up to the town where I've been advised of a few good pubs locally.

How does that sound ladies?
