Oh, and just for the record, any member of BE is entitled and welcome to post on any thread in any subforum. And if any of you are offended by my asking a question the report button is just to the right of the karma.
I dont think anyone was suggesting that not everyone could post here. But, your post was clearly of an unwelcoming tone (as pointed out by several people).

How weird, we were practising tapping our heels together in a 'there's no place like home' way last week in the Wynyard - psychic as well as friendly, that's the thursday night CBD posse.

Technically the witch sent the monkeys rather than being attacked by them so rest assured, the only implication of anyone wearing stripy socks and a long black frock here is gelectrox - and wouldn't he look lovely in them.

Oh and did you know the same people who played the monkeys also played munchkins - I need to get out more don't I....

Re-read your message and ask yourself if you were new to Australia would this be very welcoming? It is dripping with sarcasm and is condescending to say the least. You don't live in Sydney and you do not represent the tone or feelings of the extremely friendly and welcoming group that the Sydney CBD drinks has become. The question was perfectly legitimate and well intentioned. I am not convinced your response was. Thankfully, the sender turned up at the venue and I truly hope saw the genuine camaradarie and friendship that exists and is extended to all who wish to join us.

There seems to be a few people popped out of the woodwork this week on various threads with a blunt approach to other peoples innocent questions/sugestions. Hopefully this recurring thread can stay friendly if a little daft (was going to put batty but thought best not to).

Congratulations! That's good news, especially when so many people are losing theirs.

Look forward to a celebratory beer or two...
