Have not seen Michelle for years - all public transport is available we come on the train from the GC. Its a great, friendly way to start the new year with fellow expats..

I'll be there (especially as I am living in the CBD and this is my 'local' now ;-)

Looking forward to seeing you all again.

Just getting this back to the top for anyone else who hasn't seen it!

We get so many people during the year who ask about Brisbane meet-ups, well this is THE one to be at, amazing group of people, very welcoming to newbies as we all remember what that feels like

So if you want a good New Years Day, see you at the Pig on Eagle Street, thats the big one, by the river!

There's also G & myself to lower standards suitably, so as everyone can see, there's a proper mix of royalty & commoners

Funnily enough Deb & I just watched 'Lovelace' the movie about the life of Deep Throat actress Linda Lovelace. A hard life & I don't mean that in a smutty way lol.
