Not sure if there is a Glasgow drink up - I lost track with some of the posts. I've just arrived in Glasgow (Fri 13th Oct) for 2 weeks on business - over from Melbourne. Would be happy to meet up with any folks in Glasgow for a wee pint or two and give any help, advice, feedback on Aus generally or Melbourne in particular.

Cheers,
Col
Hi Col, are you sure you really want to do this??? You do know we're going to jump on you and demand to know all about each and every suburb, train journey and real estate agent in Melbourne

There's definately a meet in Glasgow on the 4th November so it would be great to meet you.

Hi Gill,

Happy to help if I can ! Though I may live to regret saying that. Sadly won't be around on Nov 4th, flying home on Nov 2nd.

And don't get me started on real estate agents.

Hi Margaret,

I'll be in Glasgow on Friday, Ayr on Saturday and then back to Glasgow on Sunday. Any preference ?! I'm staying in the city in Glasgow.

Cheers,
Colin

Is the Glasgow meet still on for Nov 4th? If we get numbers together i could pop into Walkabout(if we have it there) and see if they will cordon off an area for us nearer the time,as im only 10 mins from Town Center.

We can def make it.
