Well, there's nothing hard and fast about that, and once everyone's there I
won't be forcibly removing anyone ;^) I say let's see how we go, and if it
comes to it I can bear my wife's ire (it wouldn't be the first time :)
Also, I was thinking of signing up for broadband, maybe this is as good a
reason as any to do it this week ;^)

There's an OUTSTANDING local pizzaria in Wynnum, so that's where my vote
goes. It'll probably be about $5-8/person. I'll put on snacks and drinks.

This weekend it is then. Anyone else have a perticular objection to this?
Bear in mind that the following weekend won't be possible, so for
pre-Christmas S@H orders, it's now or never.

Cripes! I'd better get that extension built then :^)
One way or another, we'll find enough layout space.

I hope you can, I'd really like to see it. But failing a built model, can
you at least bring the box?
So, is it on then? How does a 10 am start sound? Email me at
mailto:amclaren@bechtel.com for location details.
Cheers,
Allister
