MELBOURNE - Coffee meet

Bim135AUS · 07-14-2008, 06:47 PM

Sunday's fine for me too.

So unless there's a last minute change, I assume that we'll meet at Merere's BMW at 2.00pm as peviously mentiond on Sunday and then wonder off for a coffee in Brighton

Look forward to it.

How about we hang around Menere's till 2.30pm to give everyone a chance to turn up and then wonder off?

WAY · 07-14-2008, 07:03 PM

Sounds ok to me, unless others think Menere's too far. Can we go for coffee somewhere that we can all park our cars together and also parking is easy?

cozza · 07-14-2008, 07:06 PM

Why do we even have to meet at a BMW dealership? We have our cars, we can go anywhere!

xa-coupe · 07-14-2008, 07:18 PM

I think Menere's is a point that most will know. Not only that, it's not far for me !!

Fair enough, although there's not a great deal of parking area around there...

xa-coupe · 07-14-2008, 08:00 PM

Assuming Menere's isn't open ( I dont thin kthey open sundays ?? ) then there will hopefully be a bit of parking in front of the dealership itself.

WAY · 07-14-2008, 08:02 PM

Maybe we should meet directly at the coffee place at 2? Because of my baby I have limited time as well so that would work better for me too. Does anyone want to suggest where? As I said, something with ample parking in front/around would be best.

xa-coupe · 07-14-2008, 08:29 PM

I dont think there is a coffee place in Brighton that has a lot of parking. In the end, whatever works for others works for me.

Bim135AUS · 07-15-2008, 03:07 AM

We need a decison guys! Or this will go on forevwe!!!

How about we settle for 2.00pm at Menere's on Sunday

Be there or be square...

smarm · 07-15-2008, 06:09 AM

Where the $*#^ is Meneres?

Sounds like a bloody disease.

imported_Dodgy · 07-15-2008, 06:12 AM

Have to take a rain check, sorry. Maybe next time?

Can I suggest Brighton Baths for the coffee. Ample parking (free and pay), and nice venue.

Beach drive also a bonus, especially for the verts if the rain don't come!

Hey guys,
wont be able to make it sunday, but hope you guys have a good one!
if you change to sat, i'll prob come along!

WAY · 07-16-2008, 12:22 AM

Come on Jono, what are you doing that is so important on Sunday? Like wise Dodgy Chris!

Hey guys, I don't want to be a pain, but I thought maybe we should meet somewhere that we can drive a bit without worrying about traffic if other members want to check out each other's cars etc. As such I am proposing that we meet at the car park of BMW Body Shop at Lorimer St in Port Melbourne @ 2...

Ronnie · 07-16-2008, 05:29 AM

SUNDAY sounds good for me at 2....

Guys I was thinking St. Kilda Sea Baths, plenty of parking available....
otherwise, I am happy anywhere...

Let us know?

smarm · 07-16-2008, 09:57 AM

Lorimer body works sounds good. Big open car parks where we can check out each others cars is ideal.

Would love to come, but gotta head up to shepparton on sunday by 3, so wouldn't be able to make it. (any chance of going back to sat??? lol)
just post some awesome pics, and i'll just pretend i was there...
i'll def come down for the next meet!

Bim135AUS · 07-16-2008, 11:13 PM

Saturday's now the only day that I can make it.

How about we see numbers for Sat and for Sun and go with the most- we''ll never be able to please everyone!

Somehow we need a decision by tomorrow arvo so that we can finalise our plans

As for the meeting point, Menere' in Brighton which is closed on Sunday, has much more parking (and is free) than St Kilda baths and is a few minutes away from the cafes at Brighton- so that's my suggestion.

Hope we can make it happen, guys!
