Howdy folks,
Been a while, sorry about that. But back with a vengence. So much so that I will be in Brisbane on a course from May 23 to 27th. I am planning on extending the trip for a few days at least and meeting up with Mark and some of you crazy lot.
So anyone fancy a beer??
By the way, I now live back in NZ so if anyone fancies a trip back over this way??
Cheers all
Dave...

Hello all,
thats my tickets and hotel booked. I will be on a course from next Monday to Friday afternoon, but up for meets and beers over the weekend. I suppose I had better get something sorted!!
I fly back to NZ on the 30th, so have two days to have some fun!
Cheers

I am heading back on the Monday morning, May 30th. Early doors!
I finish my course on the Friday afternoon and have the Motel in the city centre booked until Saturday morning. Could do a Friday night in town and crash in my Motel? Then I have nothing sorted for the Saturday or Sunday so am up to offers??
Where do people live and anyone fancy a lodger for a coule of nights?
I need to be back at Brisbane airport on Monday morning so can eitehr get a taxi or look at a weekend car hire if its miles away??
I would have stopped longer but have heaps going on at home with the new house being built. This is the first of many trips though, the next ones being for pure pleasure!!
What says all??
I am a tight arsed Kiwi now by the way, are you on Skype tonight??
Cheers
Dave...

Lets see what the Brisbane boys can sort out? I have only ever passed through there a few times in the past myself. I can meet up on the Wednesday if you like? No idea where or when though?
