Well after the chat about catching up at a "virtual party" I thought we may actually organize a real catch up !!Please let me know your thoughts as I'm more than happy to organize a get together. As I'm in Melbourne that's where it will be ,but would love to meet anyone else if they are visiting .Happy to catch up any time(May is out I'll be away ) , all suggestions welcome .Please let me know either on here or by message if you're interested :) Beth

Just letting you ladies know, my baby girl has landed at her destination, Pohnpei. She has two days to find an apartment as the motel is booked for Easter. Just as well she loves a challenge.

Many thanks @tigerbeth for organising a splendid lunch - lovely to see you all. To the disappointment of some not able to attend, I regret to report that we were remarkably abstemious, mainly because we were all taking rather than drinking!

so great to meet you all today!!!! I had a great day. Your all so lovely! nice to put faces to names and Real names to names. lol. Love Deanne

And ditto with all of the comments. It was fab to meet you all and we must do it again so hopefully those who couldn't make it today can come and join the merry band. Cathxx

If this becomes a real thing and a weekend date in October could be decided, I'll bet that BCNA gets corporate hotel rates and we might be able to piggy back on them. Which can be a huge discount on retail. That, if its a possibility, could work for a bulk accommodation booking if everyone prepays. Just a thought, but metro is probably easier for pretty much everyone as travellers can use public transport which is not so available outside the city.Best not to start nagging them about that just yet, so please don't tag the mods asking them if we can do it. They do read everything anyway. Mxx

Like doodoo I can do a bounce trip for lunch if it fits in with work. I usually drive to Seymour then take the train to the city--cheaper than parking and allows me to digest a glass of wine or two before I have to get back in the car.

Lunch is a great idea to start with. I could pop down to Melb & home again in one day. Looks like a wknd is popular so I can work around that 😊

I've held off from responding as I could only be a maybe but if you're having something later in the year, choose a date and I'll see if I can make it. Unfortunately, even the airfare from Adelaide would be a stretch and I don't think I would be safe driving so long by myself these days.

@tigerbeth
Your great idea of a small event soon and then a weekend later in the year would be better for me. I would do the weekend. As you say more time to organise myself.

I think that is a good idea, also the Otis weekend would keep expenses down somewhat Beth, that was why I originally suggested it so to be more inclusive for all, as some are facing financial limits.

I think that's a good idea Beth.
