In Melbourne

[krfsm]

silverblue, lederhosen: if you wanna meet up, send me an SMS (hotel internet is hilariously expensive) at the "private" phone no in the infopost, yes? We'll be out and about most of the day (for values of "day" that maps to "Tuesday to Saturday" and "after 10:00 or so") and are heading on to Sydney on Sunday afternoon.

Also, it's pretty nice here.

Hey hey!

I'm not sure when clubs are open, trying to find out - in all honesty, it's been a couple of years since I went anywhere but the Public Holiday events, and those aren't coinciding :) Maybe we should all meet up on Friday night or something :)

Sounds like a good plan as far as we're concerned! (We have internet for another 17 hours in the hotel [though we'll sleep through most of them], and might try to find places with free wifi to scrounge up later in the week.)

Okay! There are a couple of options.

One is Friday night dinner, the other is:

Which is a steampunk event on friday/saturday (tickets, $25).

I'll give Lederhosen and you both a call tonight, we'll DEFINITELY do one of those two if folks are up for it :) If it's the friday night dinner, I'll suggest we go to Roule Gallette, and then possibly the art gallery if you feel like something like that.

I apologise about being slow to get back to you, I'm rather tired at the moment.

Dinner and art gallery sounds like a great plan, as far as we're concerned. (Also, mmmm... crêpes and gallettes.)

Also, our hotel's apparently JUST BEHIND your workplace (we're staying in the Docklands Travelodge)...

Oh! Yes, I am working in the Medibank building, it is also the Bureau of Meteorology :)

I think dinner and art gallery is the easiest for me atm as I'm not in the best of health. So! I'll call Geoffrey tonight and arrange things :)

[silverblue]

Okay! :)

Current plan is this, if you guys are up for it...

We meet at my work place at roughly 5:00pm - there is a cafe there, so there is somewhere to sit down. Gillian (Geoffrey/Lederhosen's wife) will join us :) then we'll head by tram to the Arts Center and go to the Gallery there, where my partner (Keith) will meet us. When Geoffrey gets in from Canberra, he'll head to the Art Gallery, and then all of us will go to Roule Gallette, where on a Friday night there is french Jazz and crepes :)

Is that okay?

"Sounds lovely" says Ms. Terious, and I quite agree. You have my phone number, so just let me know what to look for when we get to the cafe at 5... (I'll make sure to wear my "Apocalypse Ponies" t-shirt.)
