I haven't read all the responses to this as yet, but I'd like to meet up.
I do have another engagement at 2pm at Brown's Plains so will need to leave early.

Please keep me updated on where exactly to meet at Southbank as I don't know anyone at all.

and many many more.  These are just the main ones

Hi Jackie!  ;D

And welcome to Rootschat!  ;D ;D

It will be great to have you with us, and I'm sure Barbara will come up with a meeting place in the near future!

Jenny and I will get there somehow - there are plenty of ways of getting from Toowoomba to Brisbane.  Trains on the Ipswich line are only once an hour on Sundays, so we'd have to have very precise timing to park at a train station and go to Southbank that way.

If  anyone coming from the south side (I think Barbara lives on the Southside)  followed those instructions you would end up at the XXXX Brewery, which could be an alternate meeting place  ;D  ;D

Trish,   ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Could make for an interesting meet!

I'll second that Marie .................. hic . ...   ;D ;D ;D


Welcome to RootsChat Jackie ..  it'll be lovely to meet you even if it's only for a couple of hours.

Perhaps the meeting place should be at the cafe in the Library ......that way the early birds can grab a cuppa while waiting.   Seeing as we're all headed that way, it makes sense to me.

All in favour say  . . .. .   Aye . ..   ;D ;D

How about all the RCer's wear something distinctive so we'll recognise each other? Like a Yellowtail bottle on their heads????
