jasemateau Posted July 30, 2005 first saturday every odd month then that would be september groovers, i spose it does'nt matter so much for locals coz we can drop in anytime, however i still think the first saturday every odd month, will be easy to remember, so that would mean sept 3rd, for not so local members.

AndyAmine. Posted August 5, 2005 Great I will try my best to be there.. It seems Im am still only 1/2 through the Nissan Bluebird Saga yet.. After spending $835 for my front and right mounts they ddint even address the 2 problems I brought it in for in the first place... very dodgy.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dodie Posted August 24, 2005 Just checking to make sure that everyone knows that there is another meeting on the first saturday of september (3rd) at Gom's place... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
saucymoo Posted August 25, 2005 a great way to welcome in spring! i'll definitely be there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dodie Posted August 31, 2005 Hate to sound like a broken record but im just pushing this topic up the top so ppl with remember it what time are we meeting up at? Is anyone going to the botanical gardens first or just going to gom's? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyAmine. Posted August 31, 2005 I think my car is going to still be at the mechanics (while I negotiate thier bill due to misdiagnosis) so I would would really appreciate a lift if anyone is going from/through the Gold Coast? I think the gardens would be good but Im assuming its the same plan as last time, people can either meet at the gardens or jst drop into Goms after I think it was about 1pm.

gomaos Posted August 31, 2005 1`pm sounds good to Dr. Gom Zoidberg... I'll have the tables and chairs ready and waiting in the garden... does anyone have any ideas to make the event more entertaining? I think I'm pretty much a "bore" when it comes to social activities... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyAmine. Posted September 1, 2005 I would be happy to bring a few interesting video's, documentary's and books to "show and tell" Can you line up some kind of TV or projector, then we can jst run them from my notebook. Of course, this is assuming I can get there.. any offers would be greatly appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dodie Posted September 1, 2005 I could bring some books too for ppl to flick through, dont know what else to bring, Maybe we could start doing a set thing each meeting ie: one for extractions...get ppl to bring all sorts of equipment each or differnt materials so we all could learn great stuff, maybe im just rambling.... i would pick you up andy if i could but way away from me...sorry so who is comming this saturday?

AndyAmine. Posted September 1, 2005 Awww schucks dodie303, thanks for your offer mate... If I can get a lift then I will look forward to seeing you and eveyone else on Sat.. (anyone know a good method for skinning a live mechanic? any other incredibly painful torture teks?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ergoamide Posted September 1, 2005 Well no good skinning techniques but maybe like dodie sed we shoudl devote a meeting to a diff thing so maybe andy you could get how to skin a mechanic alive in there sum how, i'm sure lotsa other people have the same probelm and there personal remedies for ie skinning that they would happily share. But andy once hes been skinned a nice roll in salt and a swim in vinegar should do nicely for a finishing touch, so he knows neva to do it again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gomaos Posted September 5, 2005 Thanks to these who came... only a select few... but a very nice meeting, actually one of the most enjoyable so far! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyAmine. Posted September 5, 2005 no one offered me a lift and my hopes of borrowing a car were dashed so once again I missed it. I will have my car back by the next one, so finally, I should be able to make it.. I was thinking about you guys all day... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Green Chemist Posted September 20, 2005 Hi does the brisbane group still meet? Would like to come along if possible. Want to be more involved. I know I don't post much here, But I do come to the fourm nearly everday and have a read. You can PM me the info of meets. I have worked out how to get to my PM box :cool: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyAmine. Posted September 20, 2005 Benzito, I used the "If you dont fix my car for free Ill take you before the office of fair trading tribunal" skinning method. I jst took it back for re-diagnosis today, 6th time lucky me hopes... Ive got the general manager onto it now, so fingers crossed they may fix it... Gomaos, its all good my friend, I was jst hoping someone from the gold-coast or below was going as well, I certainly wouldnt expect someone to pick me up if it was out of their way. Even though I havent actually been to a meet yet, I think I can talk for everyone when I say we are all extreemly greatful for you holding the meetings at your place, its very generous and kind of you and provides a wonderful chance for us to come together, share like minded idea's and have some social contact outside of our computer rooms.. LOL Three Cheers for Gomaos!!! Hip-hip Hooray! Hip-hip Hooray! Hip-hip Hooray! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
