This all sounds good to me!

And I think your suggestion about where to meet is an excellent one, Deb.

All we have to do now is get a booking.....and trying to do that is under control......I think......   ;)   :)

STOP PRESS........

There's a hitch in the plans.....though we think we've sorted it!

Judith very kindly offered to phone the Hyde Park Barracks and the Sydney mint cafes. She spoke to the lady in charge and discovered that "we could hire a private dining room for $1500  :o
or take pot luck at the cafes.   :-\  "

Then Judith very kindly got in touch with the Australian Heritage Hotel.
http://www.australianheritagehotel.com/


She discovered the following....
"They have their  'ladies parlour' which will comfortably seat 14, 15 at a pinch. There is no cost to hire this room.  People can buy their own food/drink from the menu which looks to have mostly salads and pizzas and a few other things at reasonable prices. Photos of the room and the menu are on the website.  It's at 100 Cumberland St which is about 5 minutes walk from the Quay.  We can stay all afternoon."

Judith has booked it from 12 to 4, but if there are any violent objections, she can cancel the booking. It sounds great to us......pot luck at other places doesn't sound half as inviting.

"The Ladies Parlour" can be seen in the slide show under the Function tab, and an idea of the menu under the Eat tab.

I get lost in Sydney full stop!  But I'm good at asking people for directions.  I've had a bit of practice.   ;D


I hope they make plenty of pavlovas!
