Brisbane Mini Meet - We Did It .. . and it was great.

[Tephra]

Hi everybody

For all those interested there is going to be a Mini Meet at South Bank Brisbane on the 7th October at about 10.30am.   This time is NOT written in stone as some people travelling from the Gold Coast and Toowoomba and we don't want them to get up at the crack of dawn do we.   This is just a general time for us to meet up.

But it's the 7th October at South Bank and everyone is welcome.

Hi Barbara,
Very kind of you 
I can't change the flights now, they are frequent flyer point ones, so they charge a bucketload if you want to change anything 
If only I'd seen the other thread earlier!!  That will teach me to check Rootschat a bit more often!! 

NEXT TIME FOR SURE
