October get together !
Hello Ladies
After organizing our Melbourne ladies lunch in April , we thought we may have a weekend gathering to enable interstate ladies to come & meet us all.
At this stage the date is the weekend of 19th October in Melbourne .
I am more than happy to co-ordinate & organize ,but will need input from those wishing to attend .
Please give me you thoughts on …...
1. Are you coming ? - level of commitment & where you're coming from ?
2. Accommodation - City ? country ? Find you own accom ? Price you want to pay? Happy to stay in someone's home ?Apartments, hotels , Airbnbs ?
3.. Activities - Lunches, dinners , picnics , movies, theatre, winery tours or anything else you'd like to do .
This can go ahead with only a few people or a lot , but I will need to know ASAP of numbers especially if booking accom for everyone .
Looking forward to your thoughts & meeting everyone
Cheers

- Blossom1961Member@Annie C is coming and I have been told she already knows where she will be staying. Not sure if that is correct but I am waiting to hear before I book in. I would love to stay close to one another so we can have brekky together if we so desire. @LIttleBlueWren
- AfraserMemberAt the other end of the spectrum, the Jasper is worth a look online. It used to be the YMCA many years ago but offers normal motel type rooms (own bathroom) at a very modest price for the city. It’s close to the Queen Vic markets.
- kmakmMemberI think we're mostly looking at City based activities @LittleBlueWren. So anywhere central or within a 5km radius on a tram or train line would be handy I reckon.
I was talking about this weekend with a friend who gave me a couple of nice hotel recommendations for the City. They are quite pricey though. But if you're looking for a treat, DM me and I'll passthem on. K xox - @Blossom1961 I am looking forward to meeting you as well.
Any suggestions on where to stay? I'd like to stay near where we will all meet up if possible. - Blossom1961Member@LittleBlueWren Awesome! I will be moving soon but have booked in to travel the three hours back to meet up with these lovelies. It will be great to meet you.
- Please let me know where everyone is staying as I would like to book accom and flights as soon as I can. Thanks
- Hi,
I'd love to come to Melbourne for a weekend and meet up. I am happy to do whatever is planned, I have never really been to Melbourne before. I live in Brisbane so would fly down Friday night or Saturday morning and then return Sunday night.
LittleBlueWren - ArtferretMemberI'm going to have to pull out , Beth, having thought i was free that weekend but then found i am not and no where near Melbourne either. Damn. Did think of an activity or two though, but i don't know how much it costs, a chocolate tour round the city plus for those who are into spooky things a ghost tour round the Melbourne cemetery. Have fun.
- AfraserMemberBit pricey and not entirely my cup of tea, but just letting everyone know. Catching up somewhere else for lunch/dinner/drink is probably what we are all looking for.
- kmakmMemberNot for me @Afraser, but I'll have a drink with you beforehand!
