Friday 23/11/07
Evening (1900 hrs) Dress Code: Casual

The main event Friday is drinks and finger food at the Oxford from 1900 hrs on. An area in the bar has been reserved for us and finger food will be provided.  However, nothing has been arranged for the evening meal because of the difficulty in estimating numbers. People may eat at the pub, or make arrangements on the night.

Some people are planning to start early at the Oxford for lunch (around 1300hrs) and they welcome you all to join them. To date, those meeting for lunch include:
Steve Turner,  Ian McColl, Bill Thompson,
Murray Chittick, Malcolm Scott, Elio Grohovaz


Steve Turner needs to know the numbers,
so if you are thinking of attending the lunch,
can you please advise Steve on 0419 397 035
Friday's meeting place is the Oxford Hotel,
427 Swanston St 3000  tel (03) 9663 1619 
You all know where that is!

On Sunday, for those who would like a recovery glass or two while catching up with someone you missed on Saturday night, or who need a lie down on a grassy verge after having to leave your hotel, we plan to meet at one of the BBQ areas marked in red on the map below on the banks of the Yarra, off Alexandra Avenue, somewhere between the Myer Music Bowl and the Ornamental Lake.

For those staying in the city it's a walk. For locals, if you come early there should be parking close by. We have no idea how many will come so we have not organized catering, but after an indication of numbers on Sat night of those in hotels who would need some catering, we will arrange to have some standby steak, sausages, bread and non alcoholic drinks available plus some plastic/paper tableware.
Please bring your own beer and wine.
We will get there by about 10.30 so we can claim one of the BBQ's, so roll up any time after that.
