I got my Thursday's mixed up and missed out on tonight's GTG with the Melbourne TRF Crew. Bugger!

Sorry, James, Steve, Michael, Kai and others!

I bet you're all having a great night.

I definately won't miss the next one. See you there too John (Jac1)?

Kind regards

Chris (not) in Melbourne (tonight).

Aw, shucks!

If it's any comfort to you, I bet they had a beer (or two) on your behalf!

I bet they did have a beer on your behalf too.

"Heres a toast to our good friend Chris, the tosser who could not make it to this GTG."

I'm sure there will be another GTG over there soon enough.

That "eating beer" part on its own is pretty crazy already. And I know I had made a typo Sin Nombre, I fixed it.

Never heard of anyone eating beer before....

swatty · 29 May 2008, 09:21 PM

We drink beer, and lot's of it. eating bear?

Hello there Peter

I am planning on coming to Sydney on June 22, for the World Cup soccer qualifier - Australia v China.

I will confirm. Maybe you can round up a posse.

John.

swatty · 29 May 2008, 09:30 PM

Let me know John, we can get together have a beer if yiu have time

swatty · 29 May 2008, 09:33 PM

Chris,

You missed a very good night and a few (light) beers were consumed along with some good food.

A few pics taken to on James' camera. Oops, I should not have said that as now everyone will want to see the pics........

Poor excuse though being not being available...

I got home about midnight. We met at about 6pm. You would have enjoyed it too.

John, I'll be there when your next in town around June 12. Steve and James are going to keep me updated.

Michael

Gedanken · 30 May 2008, 12:36 AM

Beer? Lies! Damned lies! All we had was hot chocolate, I swear!

It was a very good night - we're going to have to have a reprise on the 12th!

Oscar · 30 May 2008, 12:40 AM

Why did you have post my ugly mug...........couldn't you have cropped the shot.

Nice pic, guys.....thanks for sharing!!

Lol-x · 31 May 2008, 10:17 AM

Wow that photo went up quickly, like within 30 minutes of the GTG finishing, I was waiting all day yesterday to see it, but totally missed it.
Yes, it was a fun evening, very relaxing

redshirt1957 · 31 May 2008, 10:19 AM

Chris, don't feel bad; they told me the wrong day also!

It's always good to see pics of TRF GTGs.

Hmmm...so how come you guys are wearing coats or jackets? It's so warm here in the Pacific Northwest.
What's the temperature like down under?

diversified · 31 May 2008, 01:32 PM

Looking at the picture, I notice everyone is wearing a coat. I can't help but wonder, how cold does it get in Australia during your winter?

I guess that's why a buddy of mine refered to beers as hydrolic sandwiches.

Gedanken · 31 May 2008, 02:03 PM

I think it would have been about 9 or 10 degrees that evening. The outdoor arrangements didn't give anybody much space to hang our coats or jackets, so we kept them on.

Chis, you know me well enough by now - if I mean bugger off, I say bugger off.

2careless · 31 May 2008, 02:22 PM

Thanks for the picture James. That's a nice rig you got there. The flash diffused very nicely!
We had a wonderful evening. Thanks for the invite.

P.S. Going to that joint for another hot choc now

Well, in Melbourne you get all four seasons in one day. I'm sure they're all wearing short sleeves under those jackets.

John.

I was. I can't speak for Steve or Kai though. It was a great night too.

Michael

2careless · 31 May 2008, 10:40 PM

I wear long sleeves to cover my rollie, since I'm a dumba$$ geek and can't watch my six...

Had another hot choc to drink and a melting choc on strawberries to eat this avro. I have to watch my waistline more now

I'll blame you guys if I get fatter!

Kai,

You're okay.

It was a great night too. I'm looking forward to doing it again at another restuarant that is not as noisy.
