nickys Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 If all else fails, we can have a kinda pre farewell party at our place. Just a few minutes from the venue. Will be able to see if my place will handle the real party . Just a thought, if we are desperate, have sudden downpour situation. Then the guys can't complain about missing any sporty stuff.

sharks fan Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Hey Lyall no worries for the exam really its just the oral section we did our written exam last week. Actually quite glad this morning that it was moved. My brother inlaw is over from the UK and we did some dammage to our livers last night so I don't think I would have cracked the oral exam today. Actually why I'm on the forum this morning could't make it to work this morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Posted July 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 I am so chuffed to see that the Durbanites are "coming to the party"!!!!!!!!We'll all be celebrating for NickyS i am sure!!Just bring yourselves and your own braai / drink stuff, and if you are able perhaps a portable braai - as the numbers seem to be increasing?!!!

lyall Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 naughty naughty sharks fan..if you get the same guy who did my oral, you will have to go out and have a few stiff drinks after..I think i had half a bottle of brandy in half an hour...it was so irratating talking to a robot...I know its his job but still, some seem better than others...so good luck anyway..it was actually the easiest section..

sharks fan Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 No more drinks thanks one case beers and three quarters of a bottle of klippies is pretty much WAY over the monthly quota for me (thank goodness I had help) never mind the one nightly quota. Truth be told I'd rather be at work the way I feel. Oh well you live and learn. Actually I take that back I never learn will feel this way again no doubt.

RoMar Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 Hi allJust wanted to let you know that we may also be bringing along hubby's brother, wife and 2 kids aged 6 and 4. Although they are not forum members (not that I haven't made suggestions to them joining the forum), hubby's brother is in the process of getting a sponsorship from an Aus company - they're also just waiting. Hope you don't mind!!This is going to be a great day guys.RoMar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoMar Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 Hi DaddyYou are certainly most welcome to join us. You can bring some charcoal if you like - my hubby and I are going to bring about 4 bags and firelighters. There are some braais there, but if you have a portable one, you are welcome to bring that too.Sounds like this coffee club is really going to have a good turnout - Red, why did you have to get sick?RoMar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
