Sydney catch up ideas
Hi all,
After last Friday night's catch up it has been discussed to make it a regular thing.
One suggestion was to come up with a name or some sort of identity for it.
The thoughts so far is for the first Friday in the month so
FFOM maybe
or
SFFOM(Sydney etc...)
Or
SAVDFFOM(Sydney Aussieveedubbers etc...)
Or
Add your suggestions
Also think of a meeting point.
Harry's at Tempe was ok and happy to go there again, it was unfortunate about the accident but are there any other suggestions.i would think it would
be good to meet somewhere with parking,serves food,as close to as a central location as possible to suit all Sydneysiders.
Looking forward to reading the replies.
P.S. there needs to be a photographer for the night.it was great to see the pics that Ollie had taken and was able to share from last week.

Hi
I must say that I had really good time, I enjoy talking VWs.
What's the parking like at other Harrys? Maybe it could be moved around. The I believe one at Woolloomooloo doesn't have car parking.
Maybe a central contact mobile number would be useful, I know it would have been handy last Friday for people who may have been stuck in traffic to
see if it was worth coming or not.
Maybe UHF two ways could be used on the cruise keep in contact with each other
Steve

If you aren't too fussy about the food, maccas usually have plenty of parking and you can easily nominate venues all round Sydney or wherever using
them. For the record I have no affilliation with the golden arches

I think it makes sense to a have a rolling roster of about three venues. Tempe was good, (but a long way for some), Liverpool also works (but a long
way for others), but if we had a third venue somewhere north of the harbour (perhaps Ryde/North Ryde area), then you have a triangle of venues, so at
least one in every three meets isn't too far.
Of course there's always Dino's out at Glenmore Park as well.

Craig good idea of a rolling roster.
North -
South -
West -
That way the poo lice are kept at bay rather than knowing where we will be each month.

How's about good old TGIF or we could get creative- "Der Erste Freitag" -the first Friday.
Someone mentioned homebush last week- thought that was a good idea, kinda easy to get to from everywhere!

Yo sup guys.
I mentioned Olympic Park in Homebush parking is endless and the lighting is bright and they have a good place
http://www.piccoloroma.com.au/ pasta pizzas etc...
after cruise in style to where ever.
I also like the idea of making the venue in different locations.

I think we start to cause division if we exclude certain types. The more the merrier. As a SuperBeetle owner I know that in the past people with such
cars were shunned as they were deemed to not have 'true' Beetles.
Also, just a note on Homebush, we can't do it there in December because the V8s will be there so all the streets will be shut.
Perhaps Liverpool in December and Homebush in January?
For what it's worth I'll bring my camera along. Ollie will have to remember his tripod next time though

The more the merrier I feel.

It's ok only beetles turned up last time anyway. We just have to make sure the beetles are represented well each time.
So Craig has a point about the December meet.
Are we agreeing about Liverpool for December? If so where do you cruise to, from Liverpool?

OK, this has gone quiet, so I'll kick it off again.
Der Erste Freitag
Harry's Cafe de Wheels @ LIVERPOOL
http://www.harryscafedewheels.com.au/Locations_and_Hours/Liverpool.aspx
Friday 2nd December starting at 6pm
Aim to head off on a cruise at about 8:30pm
People more local to there can perhaps suggest some cruise routes??
Apologies but I won't be there, it's my birthday, and unless I can convince the family to come for a cruise I'll have to skip this one.

Ooooh, I've never been on one of these but I'm a Liverpool local so I'll try to come along. There's also a Maccas, Oporto, and Krispy Kreme (for
those of you who like them, I personally don't) amongst others near Harry's (for the hungry ones who want an alternative).

It's fine for me (and the pizza is good), just a short cruise down the M4, but some of our friends from over east might find it a bit far 
Perhaps if we had a western Sydney catch up???
