ms2oz 10 Posted January 13, 2011 Hi, We arrived yesterday and it's all feeling a bit daunting! Would be good to meet up with some people who have "been there and done it". I am 41 and my hubby is 48 (no kids) and we are currently staying in Marsfield. Not yet on FaceBook (I know it's unheard of!!), so haven't yet looked on there. Anyone interested in meeting up over weekend or next week for a drink? If we don't reply straight away, hang on in there - we had problems with our internet connection at our apartment. Many thanks:biggrin: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

piggees 10 Posted January 23, 2011 Have had a look at places. How about El Rancho hotel in North Ryde? It is on the corner of Epping and Herring road. We've been there before and it seems ok. What does everyone think? I imagine we could get there for about 7pm on Friday as Nigel won't get home til 6.30. How does that sound? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
piggees 10 Posted January 23, 2011 Here's their website if anyone wants to have a look Home - The Ranch, Eastwood, NSW, 2122 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest sk1nny Posted January 23, 2011 sounds like a plan...tho 7pm for me is a little ambitious, will go with whatever gets decided...I have a car & could pick someone up if they need a lift & coming from my direction (Hills) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ms2oz 10 Posted January 23, 2011 Great idea. Thanks, we will be there. How will we all know each other!?!?!?! We will be as close to 7pm as we can (Hubby starting new job this week, so not sure what time he will be home) Jackie & Paul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't make it for 7pm as hubby won't be home until about half 6 and will definetly need a shower after a long hard dirty day working lol I however would be ready seeing as I've not landed a job yet. I'm sure we'll be there about 8ish if that's ok? How will we recognise one another? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ms2oz 10 Posted January 23, 2011 Shall we make it 7:30pm ish (- 8pm) to make it easier for people to get there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

piggees 10 Posted January 24, 2011 7.30 onwards sounds good to me. I have long dark curly hair. Not sure how much that will help. Will see if I can post a photo. See you all on Friday! E-J x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest sk1nny Posted January 24, 2011 K guys looks like we're on for meeting...I will PM you my mobile so we can hook up, I think the Ranch is a fairly big place so which bar area? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest princio Posted January 28, 2011 Hi all (and Alayne again) Have just seen this post. Me and my girlfriend are up for some meets. we're both 34. Sadly we don't have a car so think this one might be a bit far for us via public transport. Anyone up for a meet in the CBD or alternatively we are at Mosman on the North shore could do something Mosman, Cremorne, Neutral bay or if this Aussie weather sorts itself out there's Balmoral beach which is nice. Have a good one tonight! Andy & Hayley Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
