  Re: Melbourne trip next thursday any thing happening ??
 
(...) Well timed, a few days earlier and you could have attended a meet, as for accommodation, I've no idea, sorry. However maybe we could organise a weekend excursion (25th?) as a group to the OzBricks store, but I don't know if the other MUGS (...) (20 years ago, 13-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: Melbourne trip next thursday any thing happening ??
 
(...) I think Trav's idea of a trip to ozbricks on the weekend of the 25th is good - depends how it matches up with your footy commitments I guess. Maybe we could organise an evening out, just a meal at a nice cafe or something, too? Accomodation (...) (20 years ago, 13-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: Melbourne trip next thursday any thing happening ??
 
(...) I don't believe OzBricks operates as a non-internet shop anymore. When I went there last year, I only found a florist, not a shop that was half florist, half Lego store. Hopefully Michael Golaszewski can inform us otherwise, but I don't think (...) (20 years ago, 13-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.au)

  Re: Melbourne trip next thursday any thing happening ??
 
Sorry for the late reply, haven't been online myself since last week... Unfortunately the OZbricks retail side was finished up last year and we moved the gifts etc to the CBD after the lease was up :-) Best Regards, Michael Golaszewski (...) (20 years ago, 14-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: Melbourne trip next thursday any thing happening ??
 
(...) Well, 25th is good for me. in fact that entire weekend is good for me. count me in on that excursion. Leg Godt Travis Matheson (20 years ago, 15-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.au)

  Re: Melbourne trip next thursday any thing happening ??
 
(...) Basically I think Ben's idea was ratified, we all raid^H^H^H^H meet at Moore Educational in Moonee Ponds, afterwards visit one of the nearby shopping centres. We haven't really decided about partsies - I guess it depends what is found to (...) (20 years ago, 19-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.au)

Just to check...Anything decided about this weekend??? [and if so, what?] Benjamin Whytcross (20 years ago, 21-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: Melbourne trip next thursday any thing happening ??
 
(...) I was wondering the same thing. we could always head somewhere else, buy lego/lunch/partsies Leg Godt Travis Matheson (20 years ago, 21-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: Melbourne trip next thursday any thing happening ??
 
(...) I think meet somewhere for lunch, then go from there. The logical place as I see it would be one of the shopping centres we're planning to visit for retail therapy, does anyone familiar with highpoint and northland (and other northern places) (...)

  Re: Melbourne trip next thursday any thing happening ??
 
(...) Highpoint has two food courts, either of which could be suitable. One has Maccas and KFC while the other has a Subway and a Mexican place (both have a good mix of food, but I thought I'd just mention the more recognisable outlets). The one (...) (20 years ago, 22-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: Melbourne trip next thursday any thing happening ??
 
(...) Sounds good then, I say we meet at highpoint at lunch time, and work it out as we go. Say 12 noon? or do you wanna start earlier? ROSCO (20 years ago, 22-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: Melbourne trip next thursday any thing happening ??
 
(...) Which day? Anyway, I may have to sit this one out. Or only attend for a couple of hours. Reason is, I have a driving lesson at 11am Saturday (45min) and a dinner to go to Saturday night. I've also told my mum that I'd help her out with some (...) (20 years ago, 22-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.au)

  Re: Melbourne trip next thursday any thing happening ??
 
(...) OK just something else to think about - Sunday is ANZAC day, and Coles Chaddy has a notice saying open at 1pm, so chances are other large retailers (you know who I mean!) may also open late. I imagine the food court will still be open, so we (...) (20 years ago, 24-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.au)

  Re: Melbourne trip next thursday any thing happening ??
 
(...) Nope...I think it's highpoint Shopping Centre in Maribyrnong...The foor court with McDonalds is at the end near the Secondary School. The plan was to head to Northland Shopping centre after this though, I think. Benjamin Whytcross (20 years ago, 24-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.au, FTX)
