Planning

I would suggest you be bold and just pick a date, time and venue. Meetups don't work with democracy as you will never get everyone able to attend and will discuss it forever. Alex Sims (talk) 02:47, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Location

Preferably somewhere in the city.

Agreed. Donama (talk) 23:21, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
I'll make a few location suggestions below, perhaps people could indicate what they prefer. A restaurant or café would probably work best. This way we can ensure under-18s can come too. ~ Riana ⁂ 05:36, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
  • any of the below locations are good - Peripitus (Talk) 23:49, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Rundle Mall

  1. ~ Riana ⁂ Works for me
  2. Daniel (talk) 06:13, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
  3. Yeti Hunter (talk) - Cibo at the corner of Frome and Rundle?

Central Market

  1. ~ Riana ⁂ Works for me
  2. Daniel (talk) 06:13, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Other in CBD

  1. ~ Riana ⁂ Works for me
  2. Daniel (talk) 06:13, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Glenelg

  1. ~ Riana ⁂ Works for me
  2. This works for me as parking will likely be easy and close to the venue and it has scenery to admire after ;-) Wayne (talk) 15:23, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
  3. If preferred by everyone else, although preference is City. Can get here, though. Daniel (talk) 11:07, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

North Adelaide

  1. Daniel (talk) 06:13, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Dates

After Australia Day, when people have gotten over the barbeques and fireworks? Perhaps the weekend of the first school week will work for anyone going back to school. Even later is fine - please suggest dates! Let's try to keep it in January or February.

Please indicate your preference below.

During January

In February

  1. Early February. Daniel (talk) 06:13, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
  2. How about lunchtime, Saturday, february the 9th ? - Peripitus (Talk) 23:49, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
    That sounds good to me. It's been suggested elsewhere too, so perhaps we can tentatively set it to that date and see what people can do? ~ Riana ⁂ 23:56, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Time

As long as it's not breakfast! :) Brunch, lunch or later in the evening is OK - probably best to have it during daylight. ~ Riana ⁂ 11:27, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

I guess the brekky was suitable for 9-5 workers, but I simply didn't wake up in time for the last one :) Evening is good. Donama (talk) 23:20, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Please indicate your preference below.

Attendees

Please add your name here if you can come, or want to come!

Yes

  1. ~ Riana ⁂ Pretty much any weekend should be fine, given enough notice.
  2. Gimme two weeks notice and I'll be OK. Daniel (talk) 12:41, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
  3. Count me in. Missed the last one due an unexpected hospital admission (second in six months). Fingers crossed that bad luck doesn't come in threes. Wayne (talk) 15:33, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
  4. Hopefully :) Donama (talk) 23:19, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
  5. Should be ok - I don't plan this far in advance anyway Peripitus (Talk) 23:51, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
  6. Yeah as long as it will not be held in a weekday I should be fine. Unless there has been something going on with no Under 18's going to attend then I guess that rules me out. -The Doctor- 12:41, 27 January 2008 (AEST)

No

  1. Sorry guys, I don't think I can make it, I'm out of town now and I won't back till June maybe next time :) Thanks --MJKubba|talk|contributions 13:34, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

No unfortunately unable to come .Richardson j (talk) 03:31, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Maybe

  1. Adrian J. Hunter(talk•contribs) Most times suit — will come if I can escape the lab :-)
  2. I commend the honourable Riana for having the courage to introduce this legislation to the house, but will most likely not be able to attend due to pressing engagements ( =work) on Saturdays. I hope my fellow members can come to an agreement on this vital issue. Michael talk 12:12, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
  3. Moving from Mount Gambier up to the city in the next few weeks; may attend, time permitting. Aaron (t) 12:16, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
  4. If we could get the location and time arranged, I might be able to. Also, what policy is there on under-18s? --Reploidof20xx (TALK) 03:18, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
    We can come and go as we please, provided it doesn't take place at the pub :) Daniel (talk) 06:13, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
    No under-18s! ;) We'll make sure we're not having it at a pub, a casino, a stripclub or a nightclub. That leaves us a fair few other options ;) It's definitely one of the main reasons I'm suggesting having it during the day, though. ~ Riana ⁂ 06:16, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
    Despite being under 18, I still support the third option. Daniel (talk) 06:18, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
    No strip clubs? Rule me out then! Dihydrogen Monoxide (party) 07:45, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
  5. I'd like to. City or north preferred, food OK. --Scott Davis Talk 13:24, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
    daytime on the 9th is not available though. --Scott Davis Talk 04:45, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
