Current timetable is as follows:

• Arrive 10:30 Friday night on Virgin Blue, anyone who can lift me from the airport would be appreciated. Mason forgot that he doesn't own the car anymore.

So the inaugural GenCon Oz is over eh?

The main feelings I was left with were really summed up by the following:

Despite falling asleep half of yesterday I went to bed at a normal time and woke at a normal time. My body is thanking me. We went and saw Iron Man today, I loved it.

It looks like I'm coming up to Brisbane for the inaugural GenConOZ. The plan at this stage will be to come up on the Thursday night (4th July) and stay till Sunday night (6th July). I will be looking at the usual types for somewhere to crash, and looking at my old nerd stomping crews to ask who's going to be at the convention ( Read more... )

After umming and ahhing a lot in accordance with the fact that I have an exam on Tuesday and I don't really have the cash right now I've decided to come to Brisbane for the weekend after all to attend the Past Pupil's Mass and tour of the school at All Hallows' if only because I know I'll regret it if I don't. I'm interested in seeing what the ( Read more... )

That was a fine jaunt to Brisbane, Friday started with some driving missions to rescue lillim; a few drinks at O'Malley's with muh peeps gwen, nemokitty and turner23 with plenty of drop ins including a hilariously drunk Groomy and then trashiness and bad TV at the Piggy Haus. Saturday was Aquarium shopping with the Piggies, Oktoberfest drunken madness complete with pretzels ( Read more... )
