I would say no to the doggy for the cafe because of how it is set up in winter it is all pretty much enclosed unlike dome in armadale which has a huge open area where they let you get away with a little doggie outside BUT by all means phone and check especially if the weather if fine for the day as your chances are way way better if they have their outside screens all up :) I will phone Friday and make a booking and let them know there is a good chance we will add to the numbers of people coming :)

remember you can sip on a to die for milkshake or a nice cuppa if you are stil on liquids and if food is going to bother you I will offer to sit between you and any food and just have a cup of tea to keep you company :)

applesauce

yeah come on peoples add some more names to the list....

Apple are you able to do the booking?????

Hayley i havent been there so im not sure about bringing your doggy along......maybe you could ring the cafe and ask.

Nicole

I'm just repeating everything with names (so it doesn't get lost!). People can still feel free to object to date/time etc. :)
__________________________________________________________________________

So lets see if we can lock in a date and a place then see what the numbers are like.

Mandurah

Now does THAT work for everybody ? or does any of it need to be changed. I put down lunch as it is a long way for everybody to come so thought best make it a decent time for people. If people need it later then that or another date or have another suggestion for a place in Mandurah just speak up. I just thought it best to try and get something down for people to see if it can be worked around. This is a big distance for a lot of people to travel especially north of the river and the bunbury ones so we do want to make sure that we can all make it :)

It has risottos and smoothies and eggs and it is just yummy food. We had a huge bandit breakfast there that turned into a lunch as well hehehe So sampled the lot so no problems finding food to eat. As I said we loved the pizza as it is a think crisp base with exotic stuff on it not that normal yuck pizza. We had the vego one with pumking and nuts and oh it was just divine and because the base was think and crisp it did not take up heaps of room :) Not suitable of course for mushies hehehe
there might be an online menu

applesauce

Count me in.

Count me in Nicole I'll take my car if you like :)

I'll message the other sw sleevers to see if they want to hop a ride up. :)

Apple does their menu have any mushies? lol I guess they will have soup if nothing else. :)

Cafe Pronto it is right near the bridges and the river. Lovely spot and the food was excellent. It has full menu from breakfast all the way though to dinner. The best wood fired pizza I have ever tasted in my life.

applesauce

So... Sunday 21 September in Mandurah?

Does anyone have any suggestions for a location? :)

Kaili.

Oh thanks Kaili!

I am happy to just go with whatever everyone decides on, and dont mind driving to Mandurah either, I like the drive.
Hayley

I am happy with any sunday, the 21th is fine by me. :)

I can not do Sunday the 5th, which is the week after, but the week before works. As for Mandurah that works for us as we are in Armadale so a short hop for us. My kids will jump at the chance for there if we hit a certain little cafe with the best food around in it :)

applesauce

i checked my calendar today and realised that the 28th is on the long weekend.
I'm going away camping that weekend :(
Can we make it the weekend before or the weekend after?????

Nicole

Hayley:

oldfart has proposed 28 September which noone so far has raised issues with.

He suggested the same place as last time but the SW'ers have requested Mandurah instead as a more 'central' location so that they can come. :)

Kaili.

We know about the bandits get togethers,
but does any sleevers want to have another get together..?

Hayley

It is afternoon we will stick around for at least a couple of hours more if people want :) say early dinner ?:)

applesauce

Sounds great Nicole.

Emjay? Emjay.. you want to come with us too?

Rosie how about you?

We are getting quite a little group of sleevers down here in the south west. :)

Cinni

Mandurah is fine with me..

i think we should make an effort and go cinni, im hanging out to meet up with everyone.

How long do you guys normally stay? if cinni and i drive up from bunbury i hope its not just an hour thing

Or do you think it would be possible to have something in mandurah so its in the middle???? just a thought, you can tell me to shut up if you like...lol

Nicole

yep i will be there this time. Hope to meet Cathy.

I will be at SB's this Sunday for anybody who wants to join me.
Yes for both the male of the species and myself for 28th at Fast Eddies, remind one of us to book a table closer to the day :)

applesauce

I would try and make it up for the 28th, is that a sunday?

Nicole would you want to come up?

You know what is funny my dh came to the hospital on Sunday but the doctor hadn't been yet so he decided to take our restless toddler out for an hour or two until I was ready to be discharged. When we were driving home I asked where they went and he said stickty beaks lol. He has no idea that the bandits meet there, so he has been before me.

September 28th anyone ........ perhaps same place same time???????????????

So... *bounces carefully*

Anything on for September or October? :)

Kaili.

ariana do NOT let not having had the surgery keep you away. There are people before during and after :) We tend to get togethr with a mixed group of bandits, this happens at least once a week. That is Stickey Beaks at Kings Park. If I know a new sleever is going I make sure I am there. Now as for the sleevers on their own they have had 1 not hugely attened and one HUGE successful get together, but plan many more. It seemed to work better on the weekend during the day.

Let us know which area you are and I will point out where the bandits get together close to you.

applesauce

Hi,

, I have not yet had the surgery but have my second appointment this week with my doc, I am hoping to hear that he will go ahead with the op. I think that the meet ups sound great, it's good to have support. I would love to come to them if my op goes ahead, do you post the location on this board?

ariana

noooooooooo thank you for coming we had a great time :) Did not want to get up this morning but forced to bid on a lapttop for the boy child :)

applesauce

applesauce - thanks for convincing me to go! I had a good time.

Kaili.

kali I WOULD not let you stand in the corner for heavens sakeI would tuck you in nice and tight next to me all night if you wanted me to :) If you want to come just PM me for the address :) I plan to introduce Marion to kahula and cowboys hehehehe

applesauce

apple -

I remember Sharon inviting me to the housewarming. But, to be completely honest, I convince myself to go then talk myself out of it because I'm not very good at making conversation with strangers so worry I'll just get there, freak out and stand in a corner until I can sneak out! :(

But I'd forgotten the impact on SB so between that and the City to Surf I might give Sunday a miss.

re: December 13th - everyone keeps planning stuff when I was going to have my birthday party!!! *looks at making it the week before* :)

Kaili.
