Guest guest66832 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Hi there, I am arranging a meet up for drinks and the opportunity to meet new people in Sydney. It's provisionally set for Saturday 14th July with a meet up time of 7.30pm onwards. I am asking for possible meeting places because the original venue, the Glenmore Hotel in the Rocks, is currently being renovated. I am just sending out messages at the moment to get some ideas of interest and numbers. Everyone is welcome, it's not going to be just a boys or a girls night and couples are welcome along too. I'm asking as many people as I can that have shown an interest in meeting in Sydney. If you have any suggestions for places to meet, please let me know. This will be a great opportunity to get out into the city and meet new people so let me what you think Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest66832 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Two suggested venues already are the Grasshopper in the city or the Argyll in the Rocks. If you are interested in coming along please show your interest on this thread, cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sk1nny Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Sounds good to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest66832 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Ok so the numbers are coming in now, we could have quite a good night out if everyone turns up. What would people prefer though in the venue, a busy bar with music or an older style pub where you can chat and mingle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilo223 Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Good work Rob - I'm definitely in. How about Glenmore hotel in the rocks? If its a nice day we can all meet on the roofgarden and then theres plenty of other pubs around if we get bored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest First time Down Under Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Hey, I'd be up for this Can't be too much help with suggestions of places to meet though, as I only got here about a week ago and still finding my way around The Opera bar looks a stunning spot, but guess may be a little pricier cos of its location...The Lowenbrau gets a good review, I think... Anyway, hopefully meet up with you guys on the 14th Sue x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyharg Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Hi all, I've been in Sydney for just over a year now and struggle to meet new people outside of work/flatmates. Would be up for coming along to a meetup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest66832 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 The Glenmore sounds perfect except that as far as I know it's being renovated and will not be open until September, if anyone knows any different to this then please let me know. Another possibility is the Orient Hotel at the Rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardtochase Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Hi all, this sounds like fun. I'm 30 from London, living in Surry Hills. I can recommend The Sheaf in Double Bay as a good location? It's about 10 mins walk from Edgecliff train station if that. Also if anyone is up for a mid week drink anytime in Surry Hills area, feel free to PM me.

I'm usually around somewhere on Devonshire St, though I'm trying to stay off the 'reeb' the last couple of nights but no 'Dry July' for moi!

Guest guest66832 Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Ok so the latest is that everyone that would like to come please update this thread with your name and let's see how many are going to be there. We should all meet up at Jackson's Bar on George Street at 8pm on Saturday night the 14th July. I have uploaded a pic of myself so that you can see who to come over and meet up with. If we meet up in the front section instead of the back bar then we can all get together and get a few drinks. I hope to see many of the Pomsinoz group there.
