Default Brisbane Mactalk Meet - 22nd May

Click the image to open in full size.
So Melbourne think they're big boys now - meeting at a pub...PAH! Well unless they're the last table left and are kindly told to leave we'll know they can't match the Brisbane spirit. After all, there's only two states worth being in - Queensland, or pissed. Lets show those children how a REAL MacTalk Meet is done...

When: Friday May 22nd, 6pm 'til late - iCal file
Where: Boardwalk Bar - Website - Map
What to Bring: Yourself, a friendly attitude and money for food and drinks - they do a great deal on Friday's until 7pm; a jug of beer and bowl of hot chips for $13.90. Also bring your camera, but seriously, leave the laptops at home...

Haha, did I tell you we had to stop and pull over because I was going to throw up in the car after smelling McDonalds

Finished the hike though!

Count me in! Wonder if we will see them run out of our beer again or if that tossah of a bouncer will tell us to please leave (in a non-polite manner)?
No Apple Store tees please!

Yeah, I'll probably be there. It's about time I got to one of these, since I've missed the last two

I shall still be attending but will be leaving about 8.30pm sadly

Have big end of year (well for us anyway because of work experience next semester) drinks for uni the same night.

I will also be bringing along my good friend and neighbour Callum who is a MacTalk and MacTalk meet virgin although he is just as big an Apple nerd - make sure his first time doesn't hurt too much

Heads up in advance - this drinks thing afterwards is cocktail dress so that is why will we will overdressed - not because we are wankers who look way too out of place for a MacTalk meet - just gotta be careful I don't get drunk too early and spill my beer all over my nice clothes

And your trawler fishermen's outfits, if the weather keeps up.

Southerners take note. Nothing gets in the way of a Brisbane Meetup. Yo Ho.

Shame that this isn't on the news page. Any reason we don't rate?
