So as not to clog up the Aus/NZ thread . . .
I'll be in Perth from 18 March to 26 March.
Already proposed is a centrally located luncheon on Wed 20th or Fri 22nd.
Comments, availability, counter suggestions, etc welcome.

Just SMS'd AP and PM'd Celsti via Facebook. Perhaps they will grace us with their presence. Friday is possible for me, Wednesday far less so.

I can do either, in the CBD most easily.

And what of the less elusive jugular and Evensong?

We'd have to change the venue from last time then. I don't think they're allowed back in yet.

So, that's looking like Friday 22nd March.
Not kowing all the places from where you've been previously barred, I'll have to leave it to the locals to determine a venue.

Friday 22 March at lunchtime is good for me. I hereby suggest the Brisbane Hotel for lunch. It is convivial, with a good menu and choice of drinkies. I'm happy to make a booking closer to the time, as Friday lunch can sometimes fill up.

Any Mrs Curlies or Mrs rexories coming?
I'm thinking about dragging along Mr Evensong.
Friday should be cool for me but I'll have to be out of there at about 12:50 to attend a 1:30 pm lecture in Freo. Like I said b4, might be better to just pop in and say hello.

Mrs Curly will be staying in Sydee to keep Chez Curly running smoothly. Me, I'll be going wild in Bogan City all by myself for a week.

How do people feel about Jug's suggestion for venue, esp city based workers (if any)?
mr curly
Would probably prefer the city but can make either.

Venue's doable, but a bit of a hike. No doubt better parking for those non-CBD types. Make it so.

I can take or leave the Brisbane. But if jugs is organising it, I'll go. If Rex or AP want something more CBD then that's ok with me too.

The sausage rolls at the Briz are pretty much the best things ever.

Off to the airport this afternoon.
So much to share. I can't wait to tell you all about my plan for world cricket domination, revolving as it does around my new comedic cricket website and the offers for syndication that are flooding in.

When stressed about travel, one prefers not to have a train cancelled on the way to the airport. Plenty of time, but you know, one could do without it.

If only there were a wise and spiritual guide, mentor and soul-friend to step in, make a booking and advise the time. Oh, if only.

Not looking good from my end I'm afraid. Was expecting a school allocation today and have run into hiccups. Need to catch up with prac officer after the briefing.
Sorry all.
(But tis a bloke event as it stands so you'll probably be better off without me ).

I'm glad you're not coming, Evensong. Now I will be able to burp and fart with impunity, and talk about how women don't really understand me.
I will call in the morning and make a booking - but I reckon we will be alright for a table.

Better not have eggs Benedict in Freo in the morning as planned.
