    Re: 2010 AASCA National Championships - Jan 29-31

    Hi All

    I picked up about  30 flyers from teh Veneziano Caffe at west end today..

    1/2 price day vouchers for teh festival....  Get in for $8 rather than the $16


    So if ya on way (airport etc) and need one or two and cant drop into Veneziano Caffe at west end...

    Then I am only a 5 min detour from the airport and can leave them for you to collect as you require..  Just PM me... And I will provide my exact LOCATION  


    Looking forward to catching up with any number of ya on Sunday..

    AM

      Id love to go but not sure that the 18 month old, 3 year old and the 4 year old kids would that excited sitting through latte art or anything else.

      I just have to keep telling myself ... the time will come when I get some of my life back. In the meantime Ill enjoy watching them grow up and develop - also need to teach them to roast, grind, steam milk, pour latte art, repair grinders, repair espresso machines etc etc

          Any Snobs want to do a meet up in the carpark on Sunday? Ill be there with Scoota - Id like to be there for at least 9.30am, so I have time to get in and get to the right place before the finals start at 10.00am. Ive no idea where Im going yet, or what the place looks at, but if anyone wants to suggest a point to meet at, well do our hardest to be there.

          Andy, have you got a stand or just observing?

          Cheers

            The carpark would be harder to meet up with others (multiple levels and doors) than the front of the building would be.

            What the place looks like?

            HUGE



            Its in Broadbeach, on the highway south of Surfers.  If you get to Jupiters Casino you have gone 500 meters too far.

            Nah, dont be daft... I want to have a great weekend, not a stressed-out one.  

            Last year the stage area was at the back of the food stands.  Might have been 150 odd seats so it should be pretty easy to spot a group of CSrs (some in shirts I guess) sitting in that area.

              Sounds like a pretty cr@ppy area to me... ;D ;D ;D

              Whats even funnier, is that the autocorrect put an ! in it to take out any perceived swearing! ;D

                Oh dear... I can see this wireless keyboard is heading for landfill sooner than expected.

                ...and yes, the upside down i is the autocorrect.
                ;D

                    Excellent, AM - Ill send you a text once Scoots and I are there and well try to meet up...

                    I wont be wearing my CS shirt this time because, even though it is a medium, Ive now ve lost a bit of weight and it absolutely swims on me (not very flattering...probably more fattering! ). In the alternative, if anyones keeping an eye out for us, Ill be wearing a dark coffee-shot coloured top - read brown - and latte coloured capris (thats 3/4 length pants for those men that cant keep up with womens fashions).

                    See you there. If anyone wants to meet at the entrance, shoot me a PM and well keep an eye out for you.

                    And the very best of luck to the competitors for the Semi-Finals!

                    Cheers
