Ok you are all lightweights!

I am in demand to come back to Brisbane! Not just to sort you lot out. I cannot make the 11th as I am in Adelaide which is as boring as Brisbane for drinks nights. Hope you all enjoy next week.

I have to attend a conference 17th and 18th and will be staying over both nights but think my company need me Monday night. But if you let me know if any of you are free on Tuesday I can see if there is any point turning up

NOt sure what I will be wearing because company informed me they have ordered a SMALL company polo shirt for me - the sheer thought of me in a small polo shirt is frightening - what next they will want hot pants, eeuugh!

Cheers Sandra

hope your retirement is working out down south.

and before anyone pops up with the quip, yes it will make a change from me just being plain schtoopid

now, i could suggest it was a deliberate ploy, but none would believe.

so, yes i know i'd be drinking alone if i turned up monday. i should have said tuesday 11th. still might be stupid busy though, and of course still very very stupid

Ok all relax - work has after all my 300 emails found a medium t shirt! I have no idea how much bigger medium is than small but breathing a small (hee hee) sigh of relief. But seriously having never worn anything under large the last few years (+10) I think I am still kidding myself.

Enjoy TUESDAY the 11th and hope to see some of you on the 18th. Polly get a shift swap!!! NOW!! or come and see me in Adelaide as punishment.

Polly after you report on the lightweight meeting next wednesday can you swop this thread and get us on for the 18th - you are my fav moderator

love and mad kisses to Bernie I can bring you the small t shirt for you - it should fit

PS edited (note dobbleman) to say I mean when Polly reports on Wednesday after the night out on TUESDAY 11th

Sorry Polly but give a true description - a load of load mouth gobshites (oops nice gentle people I am not there) and send the girl your mobile (as you will have done)

Are you all aware I am missing you.

To al reading this thread - please be aware there are no cliques of people knowing each other - they are all nice and willing to join in easpecially with newcomers. It was one of the things that put me off going to drinks nights that people knew each other and I was going to stand out as a sad sack.

Not true - go along and see what is happening - it is all contact, you never know, you might meet the right contact and a mate for ever or at least an introduction to some interesting points of Brissie.
