Guest MartinandKaroline Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I'm a builder from Hertfordshire with a six-month-old son and am looking for other dads to have a few beers and a game of pool with from time to time. Why should the mums have all the social life?? Most of the lads I work with are younger and I'm too old (37!!) to go out drinking all night with them, but not too old to be wearing slippers and drinking Horlicks... If anyone wants to meet up or knows of any existing meet ups, please get in touch. Cheers martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaq4chop Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Hi guys, Chop would love to come out to play with you. He deserves a few nights out & if you do arrange something that involves the ladies I would love to come too. Social life indeed, playgroup & baby music ain't quite hittin' the spot. Chop is a brickie so I am sure you can exchange work experiences over a beer & a game of pool. We are in Donvale so not too far from you. Hope to hear from you soon.

Gareth, since you've been here longer than me can you recommend somewhere in between Glen Iris, Mulgrave and Donvale (Burwood?). Jim, will you be around?

jaq4chop Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Hi, burvale hotel is good for Chop, he is working on Saturday till about 3.30pm. Do you have a planned meeting time? He will not be wearing a football shirt as he is more of a high octane level sport follower. cheers Jaq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MartinandKaroline Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Hello mate, I forgot my son's got a swimming lesson tomorrow at 3 so we can make it after 5.30 if you want, or postpone it to another time? I'm assuming no one else is interested in joining us as I haven't had any replies...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaq4chop Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Sounds like a plan. Are you all planning a fair few beers? Not sure whether Chop will drive or if I drop him off & he is self propelled home by either the beer scooter or a taxi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKtoOZ Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Hi guys, I'll be arriving in Melbourne on the 29th May. My kids are Primary School age so please don't hold that against me. We're staying out in Ferntree Gully which is a bit further out, but it doesn't look a million miles away from Glen Iris, or is it? I'll be in touch once I get settled as I'll be choking for a beer or seven. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MartinandKaroline Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Hi, I'm replying on behalf of Martin who's working this morning. All sounds good. He'll try and get to the pub around 5. Jaq I'll probably drop him off - you know what the police are like for doing random alcohol testing, it's probably not worth taking the risk.

jaq4chop Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Hi Guys, Ill drop Chop off at about 5 - 5.30 ish. Can someone PM me with a mobile in case he can't find you please. Hope you have a fab night. cheers Jaq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaq4chop Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Hi Guys, I hope you all had a good time last night. Chop has been suitable broken for most of the day (ha ha no sympathy):biglaugh: I'm sure he would love to come out & play again next time, if they'll let him back into the Burvale that it!! By the sounds of things he was "politely asked to leave" Jaq p.s. I hope he behaved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
