Melbourne IIS Meet

Hi Folks,

I'm just wondering if there would be any interest in a get to know you IIS meeting somewhere in Melbourne, perhaps for coffee or lunch.

If you are interested please post interest and rough availability in the thread below.

For me:
I'm in the South Eastern Suburbs / Bayside Melbourne and would be happy for a late morning coffee or lunch in 1 or 2 weeks, perhaps down by the beach or wherever/whenever the majority vibe suggests during the week or possibly also weekend (except Saturday afternoon).

If it's near me, where I know the ropes and vendors, I will bring coffee, biscuits and possibly food if it is lunch during the week (Vietnamese style Schnitzel Roll ±Chilli) for a snack picnic lunch. Otherwise we could go Dutch elsewhere.

Let's hear it....

Best
JA

Great to hear Jeff. Does as already suggested something during the week for morning coffee or lunch suit? Down my way (Bayside SE ) I know a couple of possibilities. Since I'm inviting so to speak my treat. Are you far away? Sound OK?

Go on you Andy,

So taking all the parameters so far, and eliminating all the non-intersections so to speak, with the already specified preference for a weekday and possibly a Friday, but not the 3rd or 17th, I have premptively booked ....
Friday 26th November at 10am for Brunch.
Location:
Dendy Deli
26 Church St, Brighton VIC 3186


They make wonderful Eggs Benedict or Eggs Florentine, if that's your kind of thing, or alternatively, there are plenty of other lunch/dinner/snack choices along with lovely coffee. Based on your already advised preferences I have booked a booth which is enough for 4-5-6maybe, just in case we get some other takers before Friday.

Hopefully everyone can fit in with all those parameters, travel etc. BTW- As indicated earlier, your money will be no good there. It's licensed if you'd like an early drink too.

Guys can you all please confirm below for booking. Thx see you then and any others, please nominate below if you are Ok with the arrangements.

Best
JA

You're a busy guy Col. Treat your soul to some friendship and chin wagging this Friday. We'll keep a place for you. Make some time if you can.

Ok there's been some interstate rumblings*** about this "Melbourne Conference", so we're opening it up to interstate fly-ins


*** There hasn't been any rumbling, but everyone is welcome.
