Melbourne CBD After Work Drinks Friday 16th MAY
 
Hi

If anyone else is up for another one here goes. The more the merrier and there are no clicky groups in this club. Singles/ couples or mates very welcome, new or old.


venue: Charles Dickens Pub

time: 8pm Onwards (Note, this is a new time as ive started my shop)if anyone wants to get there early its fine by me, you just have to sort each other out
Date : Friday 16th May

Walk in and ask the barman where the egnglish are. He will direct you if you cant find us

The bar is on collins street. It is almost on the corner of elizabeth and collins street. It is between swanston and elizsabeth street on the same side as a big arcade called "Australia on Collins" which also has a novotel.

If you get lost, get on to collins/elizabeth street junction and ask where the charles dickens pub is, itll be about 20 yards from you. If very stuck ask a cabbie outside the novotel as there is a taxi rank there, but most people who work round there know the charles dickens pub. The novotel is about 4 doors down from the arcade with the pub(bourke arcade)

Its just inside a little arcade and generally has an A Board on the street bearing the pubs name. Photos show what the front of the bar looks like on the street.

I have a grade zero haircut (which is uncommon in the city) and a big scar on the back of my head.

And i dont look like a city worker. Ill watch out for people looking left and right when they come in. Its only a small bar so dont be scared of not being seen.

If you are stuck ask ZOK the barman where the english lot are, he knows us now.

Welcome one welcome all.

Anyone on their own and a bit shy, give me a PM and ill pm you my mobile for the night so you can call me and i can tell you were we are.

There's a strong possibility David will talk endlessly about it - if someone/anyone will listen! I DON'T.
