Bump ahead of next week, for anyone interested in catching up for a drink and/or bite to eat pre-game

 

[Shell]

I got day spa booked for 10.30-1pm. Then ill head on over to Mantra and check in.

Come over whenever after 4pm I'd say.

 

[Shell]

BYO of course. Im not made of money here.

 

[Shell]

There is mini bar too tho.

 

[mackky]

Are we meeting at a pub before the game? I usually set up at the corner hotel in swan street before any G activity

Bugger that - invite us to a hotel and then make us buy our own drinks, lol

Sounds good. I want to make it but won't know until Thursday or Friday - got my days mixed up on the weekend & it's not next week I'm heading to Melb it's this week; next week I have jury duty starting Thursday and not sure how long that's going for or what's going to happen with it.

When I got the letter (which was my own fault as I had been thinking about getting 1 for like a week before i received it), I looked at all options to get out of it & couldn't. Got out of the first one I received when I was 18 as I was a student residing in Canberra, not so lucky this time though

At least they pay, so that will be nice

 

[Shell]

Ive never been picked for jury duty.

Perfect, best way to go about 5hings not having to deal with public transport

Only on weekends
I’ll let you know if we head towards matr@ then, will definitely be having a few on the corner hotel though

 

[Shell]

No worries at all!

 

[Shell]

Yeah whatever ppl wanna do, go somewhere else first- all fine with me idm.

 

[cats_09]

I'm happy with the hotel - easy access to the ground & most likely won't be as busy as pubs in the area

 

[Shell]

Its such a relief, not having to get back on the trains/trams/walk to Flinders after too. Ill be just chillin after the final siren..

 

[Max Milburn]

Are you a serial killer?

Only one way to find out...

 

[dazbroncos]

You never know

I remember hearing the story last year of 2 mates, Eagles supporters, who flew to Melbourne for the GF - one flew from Perth for approx $2,000 return, the other flew from London for approx $1,200 return

overseas could provide the cheaper fares

 

[JohnZ]

A lot more seats avaliable between here and London compared to LA.

 

[Shell]

Bump

 

[Shell]

BYO drinks but ill buy some nibbles.

Can get room service if ppl want food.
