Titanic artifacts
Just noticed an article in the Brisbane News paper,there is an Exhibition of the TITANIC ARTIFACTS at the Melbourne museum at the same time as the meetup http://www.titanicmelbourne.com/tickets.html .
Seems that's the 3rd reason I should be there along with the meet up and and the Free BOOZE.

G'day Micheal all this free booze chatter is well and good however we have to rely on Vernon to bring plenty from the Hunter. He must have made a packet on that house of his.The Titanic is a better incentive.
Now then I know it is still a long way off but has any one of the would be starters given any thought to the two venues I put up? Here.s the thing:- The London is a bit rough parking in side streets however the price is right and we are close to the ferry terminal if you want to do a runner to Tassie. Mario's at Brighton Beach is more dignified, parking is plentiful in a private car park and a train from Melb stops at the door.To ruddy cold for a paddle of course.Seniors cards welcome and do not tell me we don't all have those.Cheers

Neil mate parking around the London is O.K. especially during the day. There is plenty of parking around the back streets and all for free. Nothing more than one minute walking distance.
