Sweet, how do I get there from Brunswick? My aunty's place is literally 50m away from Sydney Road.

Or I could get her to drive me, I'll see.

lol, I'm up past Moreland Road just above Brunswick.

You can catch the tram (Route 19) towards the City, which goes down Sydney Road, and get off at La Trobe Street. Then you just walk across the road towards the 7/11 and proceed right, up past the Commonwealth Bank until you reach the next intersection (Swanston Street/La Trobe Street). There's an icrecream place down the bottom. Just go up the escalators there, up one level, and through the doors on the left. Walk towards your right once you're in the food court and past Oporto. We'll meet up around there.

Alternatively, you could catch the train at Brunswick (near Safeway). If you catch the one in the morning (before 12) it'll arrive at Melbourne Central earlier. It goes from Brunswick -> Jewell -> Royal Park -> Flemington Bridge -> Macaulay -> North Melbourne -> Flagstaff -> Melbourne Central. Then you just go up one big escalator to the concourse or two small ones which take you between platforms. Through the ticket barrier, and then take the escalators. Keep taking any escalator you see until you're up on the food court (level 2). From the lower ground you take one set up, then another set to the left. And then two from level 1 which are infront of the ones you just took. If you can see the big clock then you'd be able to see Oporto or Gloria Jeans on the level up.

I can't come on the 7th. I'll still be in Sydney then. Maybe between the 24th and the 26th?

 

[aznblur]

Add me in as confirmed

 

[TimMc]

Heya,

I can't make it until 12:30 PM due to a slight change in class times. You guys can still start at 12:00 PM if you want though

Tim.

 

[Faz]

Yeah, sounds great. We should have another meeting when Nick comes down.

So, I will be there about 12:00 and Tim can come later. Ill get some scrambles and Tim, contact some other people -Michael!!!! and some other friends.

 

[GerrySly]

I might make an appearance, not sure as of yet, going into the city tomorrow for the Victory game, so not sure about wednesday, how long is it going on for and is it a competition or just a get together?

 

[Faz]

It's just a get together, but we will have a 3x3 average of 5 competition.

I think its 12 until 6, but that seems very long - I will probably only stay til 4.

 

[aznblur]

I'll be leaving at 4-5 ish, meeting up with a family friend.

Should we meet up in Gloria Jeans? They have very comfy looking couches.

But they might kick us out if we're in there for too long D:
