gordonsmith Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 We will be there, looking forward to meeting yous, anyone else who can make it please do come along even for a short time, one thing I have noticed about this country is that networking is very important both in personal and professional life. It would be good to build a network of friends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim and Pam Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 We'll be there, but we won't arrive until about 2pm because I'm working in the morning. So we'll have lunch before we come. How will we identify the group when we get to the park? What's the parking situation at the park? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveNem Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 We are going to the Wiggles concert and little one will be very over tired by then but we will hopefully be able to make another one. Have a wonderful time x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jit7 Posted December 11, 2012 Author Share Posted December 11, 2012 Awesome Tim and Pam. So far 6 possibly 8 people coming. Regards to parking...I think you can park at the top of the cliff (Riverside Terrace) and walk down the steps. I will double check tonight. I am trying to think what to bring to identify us. Hubby will probably be wearing his England white rugby top. I will post on friday what I will use. SteveNem - have fun at wiggles. Hope to meet you in the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordonsmith Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Good stuff, I think there is parking tho not sure how much it is, we might go to the south side in the morning with The little one. If we all ware something that would tie us to the uk I'm sure we will be fine, football tops or so on sounds good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jit7 Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 Found this site to help with parking http://www.riverlife.com.au/location It gives a few locations but still not sure its totally free. Alternatively, if you can get to the city by bus/train, you can jump on the city hopper (orange ferry) from Eagle Street Pier or North Quay and ride across the river for free. You can get off at either Maritime Museum (get off and walk to the left) or at Thornton Street (get off and walk to the right). It will be near where people are rockclimbing/abseiling - which is something that I want to do at some point!! I hope that helps Let me know if you need more info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish.01 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Pretty sure all those parks are free. You can also park down near Holman St and then walk along the river path...lovely walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVIDSON 4 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Hi, myself and 2 teenage daughters would like to come and join you. Arrived mid October and dont know many people yet. What makes it worse is that hubby is working away for a month at a time so finding things to do and people to meet is proving harder than we thought. My daughter will wear her bright orange Dundee United top so we should be pretty easy to spot. If anyone sees us, give us a shout (we will probably be lost) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jit7 Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 Fantastic!!! Be great to see you there Davidson4. We'll look out for the orange shirt My hubby will be in White England Rugby top.
