Ok, but I'll probably feel bad throwing bread rolls at her.

What time should I show up on Friday?

Daniel Boyle (boyle) · Posted: Thu Jun 23, 2011 12:50 am Post subject:

Here are the accom details for everybody

Ian: booking number 14440-21868528
Sat-Mon- $43.20 left to pay

Jeremy- 14440-21792084
Fri- Mon (3 beds)- Total remaining is $194.40

Copey (and Jamie)

Booked under Nathan Cope- 14440-21792106
Fri-Sunday (2 beds)- Total remaining $86.40

If you two can check in at the same time, there's probably a greater chance you will get to go into the same room.

If you want to know more about the hostel- their website is www.urbancentral.com.au

I have stayed there before once or twice, it was pretty good. It has a well equipped kitchen and they have free breakfasts and some other things for free, there's a bar onsite and from memory the beer is really cheap. It's just down the road from the casino, so it's an easy walk to the city, or you can go down to South Melbourne, which is where Caroline will be staying.

I have paid a 10% deposit for each of the rooms, so I have paid about $5-10 per person, so you should all buy me a beer or some food to cover those costs. The room rate for those rooms is $24 per night, which is really good for a 4 share room...we have been paying at least $30 in Sydney with a discounted rate.

Provided my offerings to the volcano are accepted, I'll be arriving Fri morning and will be keen to get some much needed routine practice in.

I figured I'll head to Fed square and give Ryan a call to see where people are.

I think Jaime and Copey are going to be around on Fri as well but I don't know when they arrive.

I'm also really looking forward to the footy on Fri night.

Caroline and Copey are driving down, they're leaving some time in the morning, so they'll get into town sometime mid afternoon....I would say somewhere between 3-5.

I think the Tasmanian crew will be arriving in the morning sometime. Me Francisca and Jonathan will be arriving very very late on Fri night/sat morn (probably about 2am

Looking forward to the weekend.

The footy will be terrible, but I will still attend if only to yell abuse at the declining Bombers.

The news re: volcano is very uncertain. Hobart flights are currently still cancelled until 4pm today, and there are also reports of a new cloud approaching that could re-close the airport over the weekend and early next week. It seems possible that our flight will be going ahead and even if the new cloud does come and is bad, we'll be in the window between clouds (and might have to stay in Melbourne longer). So I think there's a reasonable chance we'll get there, but also some possibility we won't be able to make it at all. You'll probably have to wait until Friday to find out.

If we do arrive, we arrive at 7:30am on Friday, so presumably can't check in at that time, and will hang out at Southbank and have breakfast until we can check in, and then might nap or something. So call us when you arrive Dyalan and we'll come to Fed Square if we made it!

What time are we meeting for the football? Also which MCG gate?

Daniel Boyle (boyle) · Posted: Thu Jun 23, 2011 10:56 am Post subject:

Jeremy, who are you flying with? I saw that Virgin are starting Hobart services from 7am tomorrow.

Ryan Richardson (ryaricho) · Posted: Thu Jun 23, 2011 11:30 am Post subject:

I am thinking we met at Fed square at around 3 tomorrow if anyone would like a light kick, otherwise we shall meet up there around 4 or 5 to go to the footy(with some drinks beforehand)

Brendan Erskine (BrendanE) · Posted: Thu Jun 23, 2011 12:15 pm Post subject:

I'm working tomorrow (but i've got Monday off for the possible net session) so i'll most likely meet up with you guys at the MCG. It's closer for me to walk straight there than meet in the city. My No. is 0401350044.

Bit of an issue at work... serious concern that I may have to work tomorrow morning. Not happy about that situation at all ><

If I'm able to get it off I'll be down around 7-8pm tonight to watch the footy.

Otherwise I won't be able to get down until around 2pm tomorrow.

So annoyed ><

Jamieson Hickingbotham (james_dean) · Posted: Fri Jun 24, 2011 1:24 am Post subject:

Woo! I owe someone big time at work.

Will be arriving at Southern Cross at 7:25pm tonight. What time is the footy? Should I meet you at the gate or somewhere else first?

Excited Very Happy

Ryan Richardson (ryaricho) · Posted: Fri Jun 24, 2011 4:05 am Post subject:

footy starts at 7.40, give us a buzz when you get here. Its at the MCG though, so you can either catch a train to Richmond or walk to the ground. I will buy a ticket for you when we all purchase ours, then we can just catch up and take our seats.

Sweet, will just make it. Are there any restrictions on bringing things like aerosol cans in? I'll be coming straight to the footy and am bringing deoderant etc...
