Hey, i realised lately i have fallen off the social scene map, what with uni and working like a slave to my job. Im sick of going out to all the same crap places when i do go out. Id like to know where do all the vw people go out for a bit of a party in brisbane, i rather like the valley, but id like someone to suggest if there are any underground vw nightclubs or pubs where you can have a beer, even maybe a lime vodka and soda and talk vws.
misskaleidoscopeeyes ·
yeah let me know too! Hey beetlegirl, are you going to head down to the Gold Coast VW club day at the end of November? Maybe we could meet up and say hi...and try to find a place for any VW fans to hang out in brissie and chat and try the vodka!
Starbug ·
i dont know of any vw places per se...:P and i know how you feel beetlegirl... uni 5 days a week and work 4 nights a week doesnt leave much time for study let alone a social life!
once exams are over (in 2 weeks time) i would be more than happy to get together with some dubbers... somewhere nice with cheap drinks...
how about the pavillion (west end) on a sunday afternoon (4-7pm) for cocktails (1/2 price!!!)
sound like a plan?
misskaleidoscopeeyes ·
That sounds like fun! Count me in Starbug! let me know when and we can all meet.
Midlife crisis ·
Can you please post what you are going to do, as daughter has been complaining about not being able to meet other dubbers (She has a fastie). She also lives at Kelvin Grove. I can definitely tell her to keep an eye on the post as she is on here intermittently as Pink_Lady.
Thanks guys!!!!!!
Kathy
misskaleidoscopeeyes ·
No worries Kathy, will keep you updated! Almost like a little ladies VW club isn't it!
Midlife crisis ·
It is..............also keep your eyes out in Club Chat as sometimes Judy from Byron Klub VW organises an All Girls Dub Day, where we get to abscond with the cars and go shopping.....do lunch......and anything that is suggested. Unfortunately one earlier in the year was cancelled as Judy's car broke the day before, and there was another one planned but the Gold Coast Show was moved to that date..........Daughter came to a couple of days and had a ball

the pavillion sounds great for a sunday afternoon, however not this sunday afternoon as i have to work night duty and will probably be sleeping and i really shouldnt be drunk when i go to work. However, my last uni exam is on saturday at 8:30am (who the !#$* has an exam on a saturday morning!!!!) and i will be heading to the normanby around midday to drown my sorrows.... anyone is welcome to come, ill be the one singing powderfinger dancing (stumbling) on the tables.
Lams ·
I also have an exam saturday 8:30! dammit! :cry
would love to come out and meet you guys after the exams (my last one is 15th) but my beetle is currently disabled! :cry
:cry:cry:cry:cry
Starbug ·
you dont need a beetle to come meet us... mines off the road for a very long time and i get by on pedal power...
brisbane post-exam dubbers at the pub🙂
misskaleidoscopeeyes ·
Yeah don't stress, my Kombi is off the road also 🙁 It's all good though, we can still arrange to meet up and have a coffee or something much tastier - Vodka!
And it sounds like some of you need a post exam destress......we should definately organise something, what dates and times are good for all?
YIOughta ·
Can boys join this ladies club - i look good in a dress if that helps...a nice off the shoulder black number really brings out my eyes 🤘
Sandy ·
How about you girls all come hang out at my place 😏
misskaleidoscopeeyes ·
Yeah boys can join......don't know if you would be able to handle all of us girls though!
misskaleidoscopeeyes ·
Wouldn't you have done that anyway??
YIOughta ·

Okay, if anyone is free ill be drinking midday saturday at the normanby, just a stones throw from my place (i love that) and thats my last exam so after that im free to drink at any time except when im working. which will be all the time because about 2 hours ago i decided im going to europe and the uk in january and february. how exciting!!!! my life has suddenly gone from crap to great. its true what they say on the ad for mental health on channel 7, something to look forward to helps!!!!!!
beetlegirl ·
oh, and boys are welcome to join the ladies club, especially if they are tall, drive a vw, appreciate music like powderfinger, spiderbait and the white stripes and are politically left wing.....
kittendeluxe ·
hey girls and guys,
The original idea to have a social drink sounds fab. Has anything been suggested... if so i would be keen to meet up....
VDubya ·
Boggo Road used to be popular with some of Brisbane's finest residents.

I went to the Family in the valley for the first time last weekend and it was really good! Except the alcohol is pretty expensive.
I would love to all meet up for a coffee somewhere, and cocktails sound tasty to 😀

Hi there, I am keen to meet for drinks and a bite to eat also, I am a male with four Dubs, I am tall and like the music mentioned above, I don't go to uni though, I have two trades up my sleeve one in cooking and the other in aviation engineering so yes I can help fix your dubs, if need be. Meeting up for drinks sounds good as i do not go out much, and would be good to hang with people with same interests, cheers Damien.
Newbie ·
Well if everyone one else is going to meet up i guess its about time i stopped lurking and met/talked to some of youse :P
Coffee and cocktails is there a better mix?

well, you know, i did want to add pics but its against forum policy to show such GRAPHIC imagery... i mean, the dresses dont leave much to the imagination, and that super-jumbo sized shampoo bottle... well... lets not ruin it for the others ok?
