Do you want to meet up with your fellow triviaties? Will you be near Sydney on Saturday, November 18th? Would you like to meet an editor, in real-life? (Even if only to assure yourself that we are NOT all ruthless curmudgeons,  ) If you answered YES to any of these questions, you are invited to a casual afternoon of fun and laughs at the Blacktown Workers Sports Club! If you are interested, drop a PM to either myself or Nannanut, and we will be happy to assist. Friends and partners are welcome to attend, however, because we will be meeting up in licenced premises, only those over 18 will be admitted. We have had a few of these before, and they have all been a real blast- come on along and join in...

Regretfully, cricket commitments preclude me from coming, but if you're gonna do the phone thing again, I'm happy to talk to anyone!

I'll be there in spirit  (or should that be 'spirits'??). One day it'll be in the flesh. I hope you all have a good turnout and a great time.

I don't reckon it's changed much, Engadine! I won't be able to make it either, sorry  Such a shame cause I know how much of a blast they are. If anyone is near the area they should make the effort - it's great fun with a great bunch

Now, Engadine, you should get your priorities right! Where would you rather be? The land of sheep, or beautiful Blacktown?  Overseas visitors are also very welcome- come on down, Santana- I will make sure all the dangerous animals are elsewhere for the day... Copago is a veteran of a few of these shindigs, and will be missed. Anyone want to join in the party? I have a heap of photos that are guaranteed to embarrass a few previous participants.. hehe

Ooohh... Seems like you've got something to hide ey Copago
I don't want to talk about it. Except to say I still get headaches from falling off a truck two years ago.

I, ummm, just got a little bit, ahhh, messy one time - or two if you're going to get technical about it all and include the autographed napkin thingy - and fell off a truck. (as you do!  ) I just wanted to see inside of it. Actually it was very stupid and it's a wonder I didn't suffer a more serious injury but my head really hit the road from a great distance. I just want to suggest something - last time there were so many calls that Ozzz made I shudder to think of his bill. If perhaps those who wanted to do a call could get Ozzz's phone number and they could ring him through the get together? Seems a a bit fairer that way.

Not one to pre-empt things, but perhaps same time next year might be a good plan to get at least two more of us there...

Just bumping this up. Where are all the Sydneysiders?
Dalgleish, I am sure we can gather a few people to share a beer with you two!

I have the phone numbers of quite a few overseas and interstate members- who wants a call, and when? We will try not to wake you up.  Only one day to go! Anyone else interested in coming?
