Since you (almost) all live in Sydney, I'm willing to take a bullet and fly down for it My only proviso is it will have to be a weekend, since I don't think I can get more time off. It would be fun, trust me ... Let me know! Thanks.

Every weekend is booked up and we are heading off to the USA in December, so we have had to squeeze everything in. xx

Originally Posted By Liberty Belle I've just found out Virgin are having a $55 each way sale so now I'm all motivated to get planning, heh.

It would have to be on a weekend - I'd probably come down on Thurs-Fri and head back hopefully on the Monday. Probably best dates for me are the weekends of 7th or 14th of February. Thoughts, questions, complaints?

I guess after Christmas is when things start jumping off, so cant wait when things get figured out . But yeah, so far ANYTIME is cool with me. I dont plan on going anywhere and weekends will be fine. So maybe first week of Febuary sounds great .

Originally Posted By Liberty Belle Not at all Deb It's always going to be tricky finding a date to suit everybody. I tried to reply to your email last night btw, but Yahoo was playing up - will try again at lunchtime!!

If it's really unsuitable, though, I can see about getting a cab or bus somewhere! BTW, I'm easy about whether it's lunch or dinner and what day (Friday-Sunday).
