Sorry HB,
Skippy is the last entry, make it next time.

Posted: **Mon Dec 26, 2005 4:57 pm**

No problem Birdie.

It is a wise move to keep numbers down for many reasons. Have a great time all.

This'll be my first meet

It only says from 8am till 12pm, birddogs didn't say where to meet though. I presume it is somewhere in the CBD where birddog is?!?

Posted: **Sat Jan 07, 2006 2:18 am**

Nope.

Birdy is in Belmore -- either a drive to his place or a short walk from Belmore train station.

I imagine he'll PM you about his details soon enough.

Posted: **Sat Jan 07, 2006 12:25 pm**

Hey Birdy,
Are you going to have a D200 at the meet to play with? Probably a good idea to actually hold one before leaping in to buying it!

Posted: **Mon Jan 09, 2006 10:35 am**

To All,
If the weather aren't good as rain or hot then this mini meet will be postponed.
I'll keep all of you updated by Thursday evening or Friday noon.
Pls. stay tuned.

Posted: **Tue Jan 10, 2006 11:36 am**

johndec,

I'm looking forward to my first minimeet on Saturday which I hope doesn't get postponed.

I'm seriously considering a Tokina 12-24 lens as my first lens lust experience and Stubbsy tells me you have one. If it's not too much of an imposition would you be able to bring it on Saturday so I can have a look at it please?

Posted: **Tue Jan 10, 2006 11:41 am**

curly,
If the mini meet is not postponed, there are around two or three Tokina 12-24 owners will be at the meet.
Just bring full wallet of cash with you if you want one :lol:

P.S: I'm still on holiday till the 13th Jan.

Posted: **Tue Jan 10, 2006 12:24 pm**

Thanks Birddog' "cashed up & lusting".

No problems Curly. With a bit of luck I may have a new toy to attach it to if Maxwells get off their collective arses :shock:

Posted: **Thu Jan 12, 2006 5:17 pm**

Sorry to all members who made a booking for the 14/01/06

Due to unpredictable weather in the next few days, the mini meet on the 14/01/06 is cancelled.

The next proposed mini meet is on 11/ 02/06, once again if weather permitted.

Posted: **Thu Jan 12, 2006 5:20 pm**

What a shame. Never mind, can I book in for the next Birdy?

i'm so disappointed, was so looking forward to my first DSLR meet

Posted: **Thu Jan 12, 2006 5:59 pm**

Aarrghhh !!! I can't believe that the only Saturday in February that I'm busy is the 11th :twisted:

I have a family function down near Goulburn that day.

Oh well it's good news for someone (frees up a spot) :cry:

Posted: **Thu Jan 12, 2006 6:24 pm**

I bet it'll be fine
