I will add my thoughts on enjoyment of the day, which was that I eagerly look forward to more of the same.  Unfortunately I had to depart early, but am glad all who attended continued to enjoy the occasion.  If you really want to have fun, just get a bunch of Rchatters together. ;D ;D

Glad you all had a great day! I certainly did, and it's wonderful to now put faces to the names on RootsChat. I've been anxiously awaiting an opportunity to grab a few moments on line, and have finally done so.

Judith, I'm sure we all echo your words in the email to the Australia Hotel. The venue couldn't have been better, and it's position enabled the last three of us to have a great wander around the "Big Dig" site.

As for the food........ooooooohhhhhhhh.........    ;D   ;D   ;D

I'm hoping to be back in NSW again later in the year, so I'd love for there to be another meet then.

Never seen a pav like that before - don't tell me you could eat a whole one of those each!!!   :o :o

How truly decadent!   ;)

(p.s. - have you noticed how the times showing posts are all up the spout at the moment - these posts are showing two hours later than they should be!  it is really only 14.59)

Hmm - some ate whole pav serving, some ate a half serving, some were strong, but my lips are sealed to which was which.   :-X
Wiggy, I think the time shown on R'chat is UK time.

Now, err, just so long as whoever got my piece of PAV ate it all up, all of it, (and had any seconds and thirds going around too) and did not waste a crumb, wellllll errrrr cause I just could not make that date.....  I am so very very pleased you all got along together and please, we must do it agin! cause I'm going to be coming next time.... (I hope)

Thanks Sarah for the fantastic work on the ANZAC header for today  :)

Cheers,  JM

I'll own up, JM (and Wiggy)......I managed to eat all the pav.....but the rocky road beat me.......I only managed half!  I knew I shouldn't have had a main course to start with!   ;D   ;D   ;D

And I think we were all agreed that there must be more meets, so hopefully you can make the next one!
