Hi everyone,

I should be able to make it. The only way i might not be able to, is if my godparents visit from overseas - they mentioned coming to Oz just after New Years but this has not been confirmed.

I am still in Rob. Re the weather I can promisse muggy, it has been bad the last two days, esp if you have to wear suits.

Are we still on for the woolly bay wharf? Do we want a feed, if so, i can reccomend either Kingsleys, China Doll or even the Tilbury. If we are meeting mid arvo I think the Tilbury garden is a great option.
