Sydney Aus GTG in Jan '11??

Well my Sydney friends, it's 4 weeks today until arrival back on home turf!!

So I thought I'd put this out there for input of when and where any of you fine folks would like to catch up..!

I arrive on the 27th of Dec,depart for 1 week to Perth on the 15th and return to Sydney on the 22nd before a final departure home to Canada on the 29th of Jan...
So if there is any interest within those dates, lets meet up!

Open to all ideas.........

Howdy Peter and Milan.......!
An early January meet for lunch would work just perfect for me as well.....
I know things can be tough to schedule around this busy time,but I'm flexible and could make it either on a weekend or weekday....
Lets bounce a few options around and see what we can come up with...

Hey John.....
Would love to catch you in Sydney....However I don't land until the 27th and I'll be heading straight to the family GTG on the central coast...Not sure I could bust away that early!!
Certainly up to the meet in Perth though...Hope you'll be there mate?!?!

Yep....Time flys buy...! Be great to catch up mate..

ATM I guess we are looking at anywhere between the 1st to the 9th to include Milan!!
I think we may luck out with John (Porche) though on this one..I believe he will still be in the US!!

I like the way you think Peter!!

However...The wife just informed me the 5th won't work!

So I guess I'm pressed to the 6th or 7th....Sorry about that!

Would love to hear from more of you Sydney dwellers as well....Otherwise it's just you and me Peter!!!(By the way, I've PM'ed Dave to see if he would like to show up!)

Let's get something set here fellas...

Great Milan......!
It's tentatively locked in for the 6th ATM...
Open to suggestions for the location. Should be near down town though I guess, in case Peter and I (+ anyone else) go to browse an AD before (or after) lunch!
Keep in touch...

And for that matter, now things with work are easing off a bit, I should be hanging around here a bit more :-)

Chat soon,

Dave.
