Hello Everyone!

Warren and I were talking the other week and decided it would be cool to restart the Tech Tuesday lunches in Launceston, but to do so on the first Tuesday of the month, which seems to be a little bit easier for a few regulars who have recurring commitments at the normal time.

I then promptly forgot all about it, until now, when I realised that the first Tuesday of the month is tomorrow!

So, let's give this a shot!

Tech Tuesday Launceston
Tuesday 5th of Feb, 12 noon @ The Star Bar

All are welcome, RSVP to the list if you're planning to show up and I'll book a table in the morning.

Sorry for the late notice everyone!  I'll do better next time!

James

James, you're a champion. I too, had forgotten! I should be able to make it. Since you sent the email, you get the joy of counting numbers and calling the star bar about 10:30 tomorrow to reserve a table (if there's more than 5 of us)

Cheers,

Warren.

Hello! I have been a list member for a while, and I think it's about time for a meet/greet.  Add me in plus (if no-one minds) 4yo daughter.

Thanks for the interest everyone!

That clocks us over five attendees, so I'll book a table a bit later to make sure we have a space.  The table will be under "Tech Tuesday".

If anyone else would like to come to the Launceston session today, just holler.

Tech Tuesday Launceston
Tuesday 5th of Feb, 12 noon @ The Star Bar

Likewise, I've been meaning to talk about this getting back together,
but managed to miss the email… funnily enough I was just thinking
about it this morning, about a venue to suggest, since the Star Bar
made it pretty hard to hear anyone!

Oh well… next time. :)


cheers

Star Bar was alright, wasn't too loud despite it being their "6th birthday".

Cheers, 
Shaun

Really sorry we missed you Megan!  We were all there at a table at the window.  The bar staff had a table booked under "Tech Tuesday", but I guess whoever you spoke with didn't make the appropriate connection.

I hope you'll still consider coming along next time!  Please accept our apologies!  Very poor showing!

I know the months where we've had 8-10 people it can get pretty bad. And now they don't have the $15 pizza deal on tuesdays, I'm definitely open to taking the show on the road if we want to try some other places out? :)

Alrighty.  Let's scout around a bit.  Any suggestions for venues will be gratefully received.  Perhaps reply off list (just contact me directly on jamesr...@gmail.com, or @jamesriggall) so we don't keep spamming the poor Hobart folks with our chatter.  :)

All good intentions, I think the staff may have forgotten to pack the space between their ears this morning!!  I will keep watching for details of the next one.
