Melbourne boards beers? - Saturday November 19th(?)

geminiii

Hi guys and gals.

Arrived last week in Melbourne with my friend. Really like it so far (it would appear that I brought the good weather with me from Vietnam!).

As our social circle is a bit on the small side (!) I was just wondering if anyone fancied meeting up for a few?

Cheers!

I'd be in for this.

Yumee

Myself and my friend would be up for this too. Actually one of the lads is heading back to ireland next week for xmas so we'l prob head out to give him a send off. Not sure where yet but ill keep ye posted anyway.. Could end up being anywhere from pj obriens to brunswick!

hussey

OP when are you having this - I can change the heading for you if like

Pisco Sour

We had one of these back in March and we have developed a good crew from it. It's a good idea, and I'd be up for it.

One bit of advice though. Just pick a date and stick with it. Whoever can come will come, whoever cant cant. No point in trying to suit everybody (people you have never met!). If you do that, then nothing will ever happen.

I wont be back in Melbourne for 3 weeks, so if I miss it so be it. I can come to the following one.

Zambia

Seeing as summer is upon us anyone fancy having it during the day. afternoon drinks like.

Arriving on Saturday so might be too late for this but would love to join a meet up if one is happening!

Doc

When and where OP?

Hey I am interested, bringing a ball and beers to Albert Park could be a great idea!

Otherwise how about a pub meet up in either Chapel St area, St Kilda or CBD?

The Windsor Castle near Windsor Station is a good pub for arvo drinks, that's my suggestion :-)

Are you allowed to drink in Albert Park? This is a great idea if you are.

dave3004

Nobody is going to arrest you for having a couple of bottles of beer in the sunshine with friends, albeit internet friends !

My worry is that I will arrive and Zambia/Hussey will have the Tram Police in a phalanx formation.

Saturday is a nice day weather wise. I play soccer every Saturday in Albert Park in a pick-up game at midday. Great for meeting people and staying in shape.....well in a shape .........Rotund is a shape !

Hey guys,

Sorry I haven't been on. Internet issues! Well that's cool that people are interested. We are staying in St. Kilda so how about next saturday or Sunday afternoon in Albert park? Maybe about 1?

PeakOutput

I would be interested, week days would suit me better and I like the idea of doing some sort of activity out in the sun with a few beers rather then just hitting a pub but I will keep an eye on this thread to find out whats organised

geminiii

Just checked the weather there and its to be awful on Sunday so maybe Saturday...?! Any evening next week suits us at this point except for Wednesday - my friend is 30 so we are going to do some celebrating!

geminiii

just realised that she's gonna kill me for giving her age away!!

Zambia

Depends Dave ...have you paid that fine yet??:rolleyes:

geminiii

Well guys? When suits?

Princess_N

Saturday or Sunday is probably best, or evening mid week as I imagine a few people are working?

hussey

Mod title edited as possible date to make it clear. If date changes I can change it

Gossipgal

Just arrive yesterday, I'm in!

dave3004

I'll stakeout the place at 2.10pm and see if you guys look normal first !

Doc

Not 100% I can make it but if I do Albert Park is a big place where abouts are we talking here?

If I could make a sujestion... There is a bbq site just next to the lake past the pit lanes. There is space for a kick around or game of frisbee and we can have a BBQ too.

Ferntree Gully .... Last time I drove in there all I could hear was the soundtrack to deliverance.

Hey guys,

I'm really sorry but there has been a change of plan and I'm now leaving Melbourne on Friday. Looks like I won't be back til after Christmas...

I'm raging I'm going to miss it. Sorry for messing yis around!

I would definitely be on for organising one in January as I would love to meet some people here.

Have a great time if you do meet up!

Doc

This still on or what?

Princess_N

Is this happening??

Pisco Sour

Why shouldn't it happen? All it takes is for one person to take control and send his/her mobile number by PM to everybody who said they were interested in coming.

I would do it myself but I can't make it tomorrow.

Pisco Sour

How did this go? Did it happen?

danotroy

ammo123

Hail 2 Da Thief

I'd be on for meeting up early in the New year if anyones interested. I'm moving over at the start of January.

GiftofGab

We should get this going in sometime over christmas / new year. I'll be moving into a house around Chapel Street with a friend of mine in a few days so I won't have everybody from the hostel to go out with.
