Since a ride meeting doesn't work how about food and alcohol?

A brain storming session by, Will, Zop and I has resulting in what seems to be a good chance that we might be actually able to meet up with some of the Melbourne Members of the .org

The twist on the normal plan of meeting for a ride is that we change the attaction to be food and alcohol.

So far the plan is to meet in the city somewhere, at a pub for a meal and some amber ale or drink of your choice. The city was choosen as the area becuase its central and will help people get there by Public Trainsport if they have no wheels or are looking for a big night.

So who's interested? Any suggestions for pub or licenced resturant?

there are a few to pick from

Don't you mean that Thursday is out for BOTH you AND Zop, after all we don't want to get in the way of your weekly Dirty Stopout. So who's place is it this time?

As for me I've got no plans yet for that week. So any night is good.

Bells in South Melb is good if you want some interesting beers.

But I don't think I can make it. I could leave work at lunch and be there by 8:00 but I wouldn't make it back for work in the morning. Nah just kidding.

I spose I should organise a bash for Canberra .orgers but as far as I know there are only 2 of us.

Have a good one.

Re: Since a ride meeting doesn't work how about food and alcohol?

YES YES YES
That's where I was thinking we could go, great spot with more beers on tap with names you can't pronounce than anywhere else I've seen.
Stella Artois on tap baby yeah!

OK so it's decided:
Monday Night at 8 at the Belgian beer cafe (address above)



Who can't make it?
Who can?
