We hope to get beans to the pickup points by:
19/12/2009
(maybe earlier)
This delivery date is a best guess as we are often at the whim of couriers around the country. *Generally when the beans arrive at the pickup point someone will post in this thread to let you know the time/date that you should meet for the pickup.
We will also post courier tracking info in this thread so you can see the beans moving around the country.
Feel free to discuss pickup point pickups and get togethers in this thread.

Ill drive to the Veneziano pickup on the Saturday 12th, see you all there!

Beanbay orders have arrived at Kellyville *:)
If anyone is going, I can take them to the Di Bartoli Christmas party on Saturday for you
Let me know
Seems like the right spot to ask...
As this is my first pickup point collection I was just wondering what Id need to present to the lads at Veneziano for them to be able to handover my order. Presume it would be a print out of the order from BeanBay but confirmation of that would be super.
Failing that I could just wander in, grab a coffee, chillout and figure it out on the fly. :)
Bit of both Jaso....
Looks like the Perth Beans have arrived!

ditto GM what a cack! I might have to speak to Simon and Sue about their poor time keeping - it was 1pm by the time we left - so much for 10.30 - 11.30. ;D ;D ;D
Had my snooze now and all is good.
Thanks mate for your wisdom!
See you all next year - take care over the crazy season
