Social drinks anyone??

[Do$tylz]

Hey all,

We had a little discussion last week in the Chat forum about having some social drinks somewhere, sometime. It'd be good to have a get together to have a social chat and a couple of drinks, and a great opportunity for new members to meet some of the older vintages :laugh:. Considering this is a fishing forum and all the other meets have been around water... a watering hole is close enough

Now... my thoughts are : weekend, drinks in the CBD (central point for everyone), a place not too busy but with a vibe of the sorts.

For me... I'm busy over the next 3 weekends (but by all accounts don't hold off on this because of me) so the weekend of the 25th and 26th works well for me.

So here's my attempt at organizing this shindig:

- Friday 24th October

- From 530pm (till late for anyone who wants to party on)

- Belgium Beer Cafe (corner of Mary and Edward St) in the outdoor area.

Anyone keen??

Feel free to bring some mates along, particularly lady friends who may find a 20yr old bloke who catches sharks a good prospect (looking out for you Terry ). Great opportunity to meet and talk smack about fishing....of all kinds. Apologies to the youngin's who are under 18 and would like to attend.

[Do$tylz]

ok then. Maybe a Sunday session is on??

2 options then.. Friday night (30 Oct) or Sunday arvo (2nd Nov). A show of hands to see which one wins out.... or we can do both

[Terry H]

3rd day perhapS? lol I have exam on the 3rd nov, and cricket the night after that friday.

[Do$tylz]

pfft... its not hard to stand at the crease and field while hung-over

[Terry H]

but its hard to charge in and open the bowling

Just ask the umpire to hold your "heart starter" if you cant get it down while the other blokes are moving in to position!

I'm quite keen but work gets in the way as always. Just post tentative dates on this thread and I shall make sure I'll get to see you guys one of these days.

I'll rock up if its on the weekend and its in the city.

Be sure to post a reminder thread closer to the day please.

[mangler]

Would be keen as, don't mind the odd lemonade, only problem for me around that time is uni exams.

[brisbanebound]

I would be keen as well, preferably not a Sunday though.

Got your PM Henry will see you on Wednesday. Might even be heading out tomorrow my mates down from up north, got some time off the mine.

It all depends on how I feel as weve got a big night in the Pig n Whistle tonight, so hangovers may dictate otherwise.

But yeah, I'll keep my eye on this thread.
