Just wanted to put my feelers out there to see if there was interest to organise a weekend to meet and catch up for the Australian LBSs (or anybody wanting to travel to Australia and needed a reason.)
There was a meet-up last year in Melbourne that I could not attend, so I thought I try to organise one this year so I can make it...

My thoughts at the moment would be either Brisbane or Sunshine Coast or Gold Coast as they should be easy enough to get too. I'm a BNE local.
Regarding time line I was thinking either July, September  or Nov/Dec.
If you are interested, please reply and let me know what times would suit you best.

Hello PB

I did go to the meetup in Melbourne which was just great so I am up for another.

Let's extend the invite to the kiwis on the board also. Fidelle and blackhen flew in to Melbourne and it was fab. Easy flights from NZ to Q. Probably quicker from Auckland than for me from adelaide!

Time wise...
Nov /dec are often busy times with school finishing and Xmas lurking
Sept or July could work.
My preference would be July - chance to escape winter for a bit

We need a moderator to make this a sticky so it stays on the front page

If I can make it I will
Sounds like a great idea.
Just need to juggle kids and work
Look forward to seeing what dates u come up with

I'll keep watching this thread.  Very interested
My brother lives in Wellington Point.

It would just be a matter of finances (even more so now ) and the timing of the weekend.

Great idea PB.

I'm in!

Whoohooo!!!

I've never posted before, have been reading along for 2yrs now. This site has been my saviour. Would love to meet up with others going through the same thing. I live in Nth Qld with 3D's & S15. H is a clinging boomerang & I have just reset NC boundaries for me as his constant turning up to the house was making detachment too difficult. I have to totally agree with the saying "This is the worst thing that has ever happened to me but it is also the best thing that has ever happened" I feel strong now & my self-love tank fills a little more every day. Thank you everyone on this forum for your guidance and support.

Welcome survival! Glad this site has helped you.mit has greatly helped me too. Have a think about starting a thread of your own so we can learn your story and be there to help you alone way,reading is great but posting is also really helpful!!

Hi Survival, looking forward to catching up with you on your thread.

PB, I'm really keen as well. It would come down to finances for me too, but would love it! Will keep up with your plans. Thanks for starting this.

Hi PB,
         Great idea. As with others it will depend on finances and time frame.
Would be great to meet others going through this nightmare.

Thanks for the meet-up idea PB, sounds great.  I will definitely be there BUT, I won't be due any leave from work until early 2016 as I have started a new job and just can't arrange the time off. 

I also need some time to save up. 

Are you thinking of making this over a weekend?  Maybe come up with some dates and I can see what is possible.

I suppose I could try and organise this over some scheduled days off.  My MIL has a time share at the Gold Coast, a street back from the beach.  I think it sleeps six people and the cost would be very minimal.  Just food and wine

I would have to ask but no-one ever wants to go up there, so I can't see it as a problem.

Let me know your thoughts.
