I think Michelle & Poll were planning to. I know it's just before 7am but can't remember day 
It was on another thread.

She will land tommorrow morning for those of us that are in Oz......or late tonight for those in the UK.
I also thought it was Pollyanna and Michelle meeting her.

It was on another thread.We bandied the idea around in the Brisbane Girls Drinking thread (I think that was the one), but never made any firm arrangements to my knowledge.

Re: Petra and Co are on route at last
I can't get over to the airport cos I don't drive, and Michelle is out running at 6am or something daft, so I do't think we're gonna get there - Petra arrives 6.15am.
I do have her mobile number though, so I shall welcome her that way

Thats what she gets for guzzling so much wine!!!!!!! She is like a bloody fish!!
Seriously though, she has been a very good friend to me, not only did we meet up quite a few times last year, prior to us coming over, she was also very, very supportive to me when I was very, very low earlier this year.
I hope Brisbane is good to them.

Really looking forward to meeting her when I can, Sandra, and we'll give her some good nights out and look after her.

Re: Petra and Co are on route at last
Wonder how long before she finds an internet cafe and gets in her first post from 'the other side'.
Thats the thing with Petra at least you know she'll keep us all informed and up to date. (for all us nosey b*****s)
Saw her on Saturday and she was taking it steady, but Neil was a bit wobbly.
Could be the last time we get together, as they went to Brissy

Hi Paul,
When you say 'taking it steady' I presume you mean the alchohol intake!!!!
Rather partial to a glass of wine is Petra!!! LOL
We will meet up again as they are coming over for a holiday!!!
Your next to get here!

Got our first house viewer tomorrow (saturday) so fingers crossed.
House is tip top now so they better be impressed, even borrowed posh garden furniture from neighbours.
