Approval has just been given for me (and a non-biking colleague) to travel down to Oz for a international works meeting in Sydney between 16 and 22 Apr. This is the same meeting (made up of Americans, Canadians, Brits, Aussies and Kiwis) that took me across to Halifax Nova Scotia (with the skroll) around the same time last year and enabled me to meet up and spend time out with Crazy Frog.
There was much uncertainty about the meeting this year, not helped by the plan for me to change sections at work just 2 weeks before the gathering but, sadly, my replacement cannot go , and it is with heavy heart and much reluctance, I said that for the good of the team I would go if I had to..... Who am I kidding? - yeeha, great result!!!!
It will be quite a busy week of meetings (Mon to Fri), but due to the travel time, the plan is to get into Sydney (if my booking is accepted) very early on Sat 16 Apr (about 5am) and then fly out again on Friday 22 Apr afternoon. It is a bit of a hectic visit, but if there are any of the Krew within striking distance of Sydney on 16/17 Apr, it would be fantastic to meet up with you either individually or as a group and get a few coldies in maybe. Also available for socialising in the evenings Monday to Thursday (we normally have a group meal one night) but generally hit the town every night looking for suitable food and refreshments.
I suspect Sydney in April will be a little warmer than Halifax was - with considerably less sea-ice!!
If you're interested, let me know.
