Well, I would love to come again. Not sure yet if I'll be able to afford the tickets over again, but if we can get things in stone early I can be on the look our for sales.
Sydney would be my ideal choice, as I've got some friends over there who I've promised I'd visit at some stage. And of course, we can't break the old tradition, so Australia Day it has to be.

If I understand right, Australia Day is on the Saturday next year.

A quick look at ticket prices, if I book now it seems to be nearly $300 cheaper than last year. Or it could be just that this time I'm looking at Sydeny.

Well, i know Thangs is keen on Queensland, but i am easy. Sydney is cheaper

Well, Queensland works for me (although it's bloody hot up there!), just means I'll have to make a detour to visit Sydney.

Well we got 4 keen peeps at least (Thangs is likely keen, just hasnt posted yet).
Will have to nudge indio and then get him to nudge bool and see whether they are keen or not.
Dran too, get him in here, though i imagine he will be a Sydney or Bust participant

Spoke to Dran a few days back. He's keen, but won't come if it clashes with the Big Day Out.

I prefer my dice not slippery with sweat so:
Sydney, 10 points
Melbourne, 5 points
Queensland, 1 point

Last year the BDO was on Thursday the 25th for Sydney, if it is the same again this year, that would gel nicely with our usual 26th - 28th ALFACon.

*bump*
If we are going to do this again, we need to finalize some plan. Some of us need to make travel arrangements, and that means getting money together.

Whose in? Or at least interested? Indio? Thang? Joos? Dran?

Anybody? We are now 4 months from when we usually do this, we normally have things locked in by now. I simply wont be able to afford to come this year if we don't get things locked in soon.
Even if it ended up being something small like last year. ALFACon has been my main 'escape' from routine for the last few years, i wouldn't mind that continuing.
