Sydney-based members - interested in getting together for drinks?

[Brandon Khoo]

Iwas wondering who here was Sydney-based and whether you guys are interested in getting together for a few drinks one evening in the city.

[Andrew Poulos]

Yep I would be in on that !

[Brandon Khoo]

great - that makes two of us!

[Andrew Poulos]

we wont forget whos round it is after a few...

[Greg Burt]

Save a seat for me if you are still there, in Syd Sept 26-Oct 3. [Rum and coke]

[Brandon Khoo]

Greg - if you remind us closer to the date, we an always organise to get out for a few

[Greg Burt]

Sounds good, my only scheduled day is the Sunday champers and BBQ boat trip to the NRL grand final, the rest of the trip is shops, pubs, clubs, restaurants and fishing tackle shops . 'Oh yeh' last year there was SP fishing at Darling Harbour near my hotel till security guards spoilt my fun and kicked me off, [old submarines make great fads].

no worries - they get really stroppy if you fish around that area which is a real shame as there are some real thumper bream around the structure. The other are with great bream is the fishmarket - but same again as no fishing permitted.

I really haven't found the tackle shops to be any better in Sydney than in Brissie. If anything, there is a real muchness among them. Yes, they're big but its all the same stuff - and much of it is made up of the real budget stuff which I fully understand.

It's pretty much the same again in Brissie if you exclude Jones tackle and Fishhead who do stock the interesting stuff.

It's a real contrast to what you see in Singapore where you find really little shops but which are overloaded with the real specialist stuff.

Sounds great guys. I'm sure we can also catch up before Greg is in Sydney too.

When i return from Kiribati i will suggest some dates.

[Cam Foley]

Marion reef thats me and any other NOMAD trip i can save up for .Love white island  and the threeking islands in New Zealand awsome spots for jigging 30kg plus kingfish o yeah.

[Greg Burt]

It's time to catch up for a couple of drinks with you Sydney members, I'm in Sydney for a week from Wedn 26th Sept-Wedn 3rd Oct, and am willing and able to socialise on either the Thur, Fri, Sat, Mon or Tues, any where, any time, any poison, as I'll be in cruise mode .
 I will be staying at Darling Harbour, not far from Brandons.
 I think there are a few more Sydney based members now than when Brandon first brought up the idea, so over to you guys.
  Cheers, love those Runbohs, I mean Rumbos .

Sounds good to me -  i would say that a Friday or Saturday night would be the pick.

[Greg Burt]

Yeah, they should save some money and take Bush etc to Naru and use the $3m a year empty refugee camp, it would save a lot in ridiculous security .

Police Quote: "We don't mind tourists taking photos of the security fence, but we don't know what tourist could be a terrorist" as they stopped an old lady taking pics .

[Andrew Poulos]

Sounds good !
