The North people will want North, the East want East - so, I'd say, lets stuff everyone up equally and go to the Vault. Or, let either the poll or Swerve (as he puts the post up each week) cast the final vote -and I say this as a person who lives less than two minutes from the Unicorn!

Have just checked in again... Quite a thread! I love democracy.
I agree completely with Briwi, impossible to keep everyone happy. Go with the Vault, its in the lead on the poll. Its also truly 'CBD'. Then on thursday night we can have a good debate/scrap about maybe revisiting the letter U for completeness ;-)

i go with the vault too (not my nearest either) as its cbd and was part of the original vote.

personally like the idea of the vote thing and we could use it when we get to 'Z'. Either that or roll a die

Ok, we need to sort this out, so in keeping with the alphabetical theme, I am going to suggest the Upside bar, next to Central Station.

The Upside Bar

It's in a cellar at No. 509 Pitt Street, so still counts as CBD, and is nice and close to the station for our train bourne friends.

How does that sound? Could this be a panacea to all of our ills?

Edit: Or we could just go to The Vault...

we are going to have people in every pub in the city at this rate - viewers on the BE site are going to forward this thread to their friends and have a good laugh just like we did with the other threads...

So before it gets any more complicated, I think that we should settle for The Vault, as it is at least central to the CBD and doesn't require too much effort from people to get there

So The Vault on Pitt Street from 6:30 tomorrow. Here's the website again, for those of you who may have lost track in the previous chaos:

The Vault

I also notice that The Vault is owned by a company called Universal Hospitality... Or am I just getting far to tenuous here? It's like Dave's tedious link.

Any new folk, please send a Private Message to myeslf or Vix77 and we can give you contact numbers etc.

We should also regard this as a shining example of the failure of democracy!

Is this where the thread fades away?

Ok so I've read this whole thread and you all sound completely normal (well, my version of it anyway) so I'd like to come along too....

Only been here 6 weeks so don't be too scary will you?
