Can other Brisbanites (or FT'ers/AFF'ers for that matter) join in?

Anyone from anywhere other than Brisbane has to be considered an alien . I still remember the signs at US immigration at LAX back in the early 1990's (or was it late 1980's??) when the queues for non-US citizens were clearly signed for "Aliens". The current politically correct signs state "Visitors". So I was once an official alien .

Cool. As long as it's not tonight or this weekend Meh just jumping on the bandwagon.

In any case, my vote goes for the Holiday Inn bar at Roma St (out of what's been suggested.) Otherwise, I don't have much preference for place, but I like hotel lounges or bars better. And preferably a place where you don't need to shout louder than at a rock concert to be heard at 50 cm.

I am only here till the end of the week then off to Thailand for 2 weeks. If you are interested in a drink this week then send me a PM or post on this thread.

Holiday Inn sounds like a good place to meet and I think I still have a 2 for 1 drink coupon from my stay there in July.

Anyone else interested is also welcome....
