Hi all, thought I would see if other might be interested in a meet up sometime over the Chrissy period I am happy to play host and it would be a BYO meat and a bottle of drink or a salad type deal. I think I'm probably in not too bad a location for a meet up as I know there are people north and West of Melbourne that might like to come and I am just off the Greensborough end of the ring road (that means not much real Melbourne driving Splat ).

 

It'd be a great chance for everyone to meet each other and even swap or sell a few birds (Splat I have my eye on your spangles )

 

I have a dog coming to stay with me from chrissy eve until early January who REALLY likes birds(the eat kind of like so very stressful for me) so before or after then would be best for me

wow thta sounds raelly great. your soo nice towards others. but how do you know some really weird person wont turn up at your house?

 

xx Elise xx

I've been here a fair while Elise and I've already met many of the Melbourne members already

 

Besides they might arrive here and decide I'm the weird person

I really don't know where Greensborough is.

MB that's a long way for a barby but it is a graet idea wouldn't coming but it would depend on my fiance which at this stage I don't have any

How about we all meet say half way and have it in a park :bow: say Seymour or Nagambie least I know where they are.

Or we can go the other and say Bendigo I can drive there

 

No really MB it's a great idea.

 

Oh and do you really have your eyes on my spangles, better put a lock on my aviaries

Well, I will have to pass but it sure sounds fun and if we were a lot closer we would come .

I'm sure I could make a spare bed for you guys Splat

 

At the moment I have one spangle, not much help for someone who wants to breed spangles

sounds good

Thanks MB see how we go, would it be weekend.

Probablymakes the most sense as I assume some people will be working

_ i hope i can come

Sorry I missed this thread... My roster at work is pretty hectic so I'd have to check the dates. Wouldn't be a bad idea for a nice afternoon... if the weather wasn't like today that is Are we in summer or winter???

Hey I'd love that! I'm in if it's a weekend and it's not one I'm rostered on for!

Hey I'd love that! I'm in if it's a weekend and it's not one I'm rostered on for!

 

 

The biggest thing I hate about shift work... Working week ends..

Yeah I know!! It's getting pretty close to chrissy now and the weather doesn't look like getting much better so might be after new year now I think Maybe the second week of January or around then. If people PM me when they definately CAN"T make it I'll try and work around people as much as possible

I'd love to come MB, but unfortunately my schedule just doesn't permit

ahh c'mon Sailorwolf... we could spend all day discussing "English budgies" haha!!

Hi all, just wondering if Saturday the 18th or Sunday 19th would suit people for a lunch meet up

 

BYO meat and booze if you want it and a salad or dessert to share. I'll cover lemonade. Family welcome.

 

Let me now if you plan to bring salad or dessert so we can try and keep it even

 

Let me know whether either of those is unsuitable or if either is fine and we will try and fit in with everyone if possible

 

 

Please be aware that I have lots of animals other than birds so if you have major allergies or anything take a Benadryl before you come

 

 

Happy for people to discuss arrangements in this thread for things such as swapping/buying birds with fellow members, etc. The day could be like a little mini swap meet

You mean 17th and 18th right MB? Is this still going ahead? Because these dates work for me! Either is fine

Hey guys this is a really great idea and there should be more of it. Anyone in WA wanna give it a shot.

I haven't heard from anyone else Chryso but still happy to do it on either of those days if others are keen :fear

As soon as I get my car fixed I would love which I hope to get it all done by March, problem is it doesn't help when I can't work because of my dumb finger.

Maybe you can have another one later on so I can come.

I'm sure someone could come and pick you up if they live in your area.

I'd love to go! but unless i can convince my fiance to come too it's not gonna happen.. I don't really like the idea of sitting on a train for 2.5 hours by myself.. but if he drives...

OMG! just had the most brilliant idea.. our last holiday to Albury/Wodonga was cut short cos i got sunburnt and was complaining He wants to go back up there soon, so.. we leave the morning of this meet up, get to your place, spend some time getting to know people, then we head up to Wodonga and finish our holiday. Perfect. He won't take me unless i convince him he wants to go that way anyway..

:fear I'm a genius!

Unfortunately I am working both those days but make sure you have a ton of fun and I will be at the next one definitely.

I haven't really had much luck, only one taker at this stage, thinking maybe we would be best to postpone until the weather cools a little?
