steynrr Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 O No we are gonna miss it again. Everytime there is something else going on. We are actually doing our first weekend away since being in Aus as it is the long weekend. Hope you guys enjoy it. Ronell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doortjie Posted February 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Hi MaraI agree – the Melbournians are fast asleep, or tired of socializing?At least Polly and Nats will be joining us… Thanks.Ronell – maybe next time! Enjoy your weekend away.Mara, we have quite a few confirmations from our Inzalo members as well and I will make sure to promote it on facebook again. It’s just a pity as this is “traditionally†a forum-braai and used to be so popular. Do you think once the members arrived in Melbourne and made buddies they’re not that active on the forum anymore?Lets’ prove me wrong Melbourne!Details in first post.
