The toymods Vic Christmas Dinner is to be at Gropius on the 16th of December at 7pm.

At this point in time I have booked for 12 people, so people will need to tell me whether they are bringing partners or anything. The list I have booked for is as follows:

Would anyone be down for a Toymods Victoria Christmas dinner somewhere?

My suggestions would be to make it on a saturday night to try and accomodate everyone (it's one of the easily accessed nights) and have it somewhere that's restaurantish but still reasonably priced to fit everyones budgets.

As we are fast approaching Christmas, the saturdays left are rapidly dwindling.
The remaining saturday nights would be (excluding this one)

Dates/Preferences

2nd December - MRMOPARMAN

9th December

16th December - Stradlater, ViPeR_NiPPleX, da_horse, shelldrake, Slim, GTI-TRD, Turdinator, mrshin, Timma

Please put your hand up for one of these dates and I'll keep the preferences updated.

I'd suggest a restaurant either somewhere like lygon street or somewhere down at docklands or station peer.

Feelings people?

I would be happy to organize it, but we would need definate numbers because of bookings at that time of year.

[ViPeR_NiPPleX]

I had this idea a couple of days ago.. or something similar

I'm definately interested in this. Any date at this point I can manage. 16th I have a feeling will be it.

[stradlater]

I"m keen for the 16th too, I think that would be a good date.

Just gotta get some more people down.. I know what I'll do...

You up for the 16th Viper?

[horse]

16th sounds good to me too

[shelldrake]

As above. I'd be keen for the 16th. Don't want to sound like a cheap ass, but my money situation isnt exactly flash...So when it comes time to pick out a restaurant - think affordable .

[stradlater]

Will do. I shall think affordable. Any suggestions are more than welcome.

[Hen]

23rd

Gropius - cos its close to home.

Or Thy Thy on Victoria st if we want REALLY good value. And then we can kick on at my place. Or even from Gropius too.

Hen

[stradlater]

23rd, bugger, that's not looking promising.

[Hen]

I suggested Thy Thy simply because it is REALLY cheap and REALLY fast. However for an event like this somewhere a little more comfortable may be nice.

[Slim]

If we have a mo can we eat for free? How about we have it in Movember and have it at Grill'd in Glenferrie Road.

Seriously though... my work is having the Christmas party/dinner (copious food and drinks provided) on the 22nd so i think i'd prefer any date other than the 23rd. Put me down for the 16th like the others. That sounds like a good date.

[GTI-TRD]

16 I can do, 2 & 9 are a no-go (in NZ)

pretty keen to meet up with some more of you, xmas is a great time for it!
and the 17th is Winton track day, could make a xmas party weekend of it

[stradlater]

Cheers guys, I'll put you all down for the 16th.

[Nim]

16th is out for me. Girlfriend gets back on that day.

I can do the 22nd though, I think.

[MRMOPARMAN]

hmm all dates apart from the 2nd are probably out for me. ill just see if i can work around a date youse decide

[stradlater]

It's looking very much like it'll be the 16th at this stage.

[Turdinator]

I'll be in on this. 16th isn't great for me as its the day after the work chrissy party. But there really aren't any good days in december for me. So i'l just have to power through the hangover.

[mrshin]

16th SHOULD be alright for me...

[Timma]

yeah 16th should be good as well

[stradlater]

Updated kids..

Looks like it'll be the 16th, and I'm thinking gropius at this point in time. I'm going to ring them to see about seating and booking today.
