Hoping for a bit of guidance in getting our heads around the whole move and hope what we have done so far is OK. Also, a few wouldn't go a miss.

Look forward to seeing everyone.

Carol
your more than welcome. the day is what you make of it.
if you sit back and wait for others to talkt to you, you might miss out.
best advice i can give is...........as as many people as many questions as you can....oh and get pished

Decided to post this again. its a long thread and its a bit long for people to read the whole thread.


Thought it was about time to have a meet.
its the hight of winter too

Saturday the 14th of July at Broadbeach.
in Pratten park. just at the bottom of Elizabeth Ave.
if your facing the water, its to the right of the surf club.
theres a couple of BBQs and a few seats, but it would be a lot better if people brought their own chairs.
hope these photos help!

we had one about the same time last year at the same place, so i thought it might be good to return.

whos up for it?
ps. if you cant make the meet. please PM me, dont post it on here!

And esky's full of ice and nice cold drinks soft or alcoholic

We're old hands at in but some of the newbies might not know the score.

There will be a barbie there if you want to bring some meat to cook, or sausages whatever, you just throw it on when it is free, or just bring sandwiches etc, you can even pop over to Mcdonalds if you feel like it



Havent been to one of Soapy's do's before, but as he says , it is what you make it, so dont be shy, introduce yourself, we are all friendly people by the sounds of it We sometimes pack one of those card tables as well, but you dont really need one.

Drinking in a public place is illegal in Qld, but as long as we behave ourselves and dont start mooning passing motorists, we should be fine, everyone does it,

Ooops, has a drink in the park, not mooning I mean.
