Gnyaaaahaghggnnaagahaargghgrrgh! Why, after moving 6000 miles did I have to move to Brisbane! I'd love to go to the Melbourne Q&A, dammit, I know if I can stretch it I can afford to, but it would be for one day, and it's a couple of hundred dollars, andf I'd only come home depressed because I was too chicken shit to ask a question. Guh. I need to move to Melbourne, everything is telling me to move to Melbourne.

Melbourne is a nice place to live.
I have to admit that moving to Queensland is very tempting sometimes too though! Only I think the humidity would kill me before very long up there. Even Melbourne has been so humid this year. Is it global warming or what? A lot of people have said it's because the drought is ending and the el nino cycle has finished. Mind you, we still can't get any decent rain - just horrible sticky humid weather. And Level 4 water restrictions due to start soon. *sigh* Ok sorry I've had my rant about the weather - now, where were we?..... If you can make it to Melbourne Rebus we'd love to all meet up with you! |

Ugh, don't get me started on the 'global warming' debate. This summer has been a killer though, it's supposed to be autmun but last night was 30 degrees with 90% humidity! 90%! I ask you!
It would be so cool to meet up with the lot of you, you guys have any idea of when, or would it just be at the Q&A? |

Well, I tried ringing to find out more info, but there's still nothing confirmed yet. I'm going to ring them every day until they have an answer, dammit!
As for us all meeting up, I guess that hinges on the start time. Feel the love. dolfyn. |

I was thinking of ringing them today too - but you've already done it for me!
Did you ring ACMI or the Popcorn Taxi number? |

QUOTE (dolfyn @ Mar 2 2007, 03:45 PM) Heff & Auschick, I'd love to meet up. I'll be bringing my Canadian nephew & his mate, most likely. (Don't worry, they're 18!) I'll have to try thinking of an intelligent question for the Q&A. It can be difficult, as I get a bit geeky & ga-ga in those situations. If one of you takes a laptop and the right technology, can I have a live broadcast? In any case, I'll be with you in spirit. And...yeah. Whoo. Perth. (I've used that line before...) |

Popcorn Taxi didn't answer because it's the weekend. ACMI don't have any more info at this stage. Goya, I'd love to do a live feed for you, but it's just not possible. I'll give you all the goss, though! Feel the love. dolfyn. |

And er, greetings from the other side of the country. Or just get them to sign something for me, scan it and email it. |

Work is so crazy at the moment that it's unlikely I'll have time to make even one personal call during the day. Jeez - even people in jail get one call! |

Oooh, don't even suggest that or I'll mail you all Wright-related material for signership. I'm currently wrangling with my rosta to try and get March 13th off but unfortunately when one does so they have to rely on other staff members, and we all now how accommodating people can be sometimes......

Well if you can't be there, if Auschick's happy to do this, we could get a couple of extra posters or something & have them signed for you & evilres. I'm sure the guys won't mind; especially as we'll ask them to make them out to you so the guys know it's not for ebay! Feel the love. dolfyn. |
