I know there are a number of Sydney based members here on the forum and it was great to read about some fellow Aussie forum members partnering up for their startup that is taking off (see INSIDERS forum progress thread).

I've been thinking about setting this up for a little while now as it'd be great to meet some fellow forum members in person.

Proposed Dates:
Thu 5 Dec 6pm onwards
Sun 8 Dec 2pm onwards

Location:
Based on where the attendees are based, we can make it suburban or in the City.

I know it's getting close to Christmas and many people are away or busy with family commitments. But I thought I'd post this up now just to see if there's any interest this time or for future events.

If you are interested in meeting up, can you please let me know if you can make any of the dates above or if you have any other preferred dates/times?

I'd be in.

Busy, busy time of year for me atm though. Weekday arvo/nights are best for me and in the city. I'm flexible though depending on how much interest there is and where/when best suits others.

That's great.

Yeah, I know it's a super busy time for all, but I thought I'd put it out there now rather than putting it off for another few months and maybe forgetting about it.

Any other Sydney forum members interested in meeting up?

It doesn't have to be before Xmas, but it'd be good to know who's based here.

I met Kerin12 at an eBay/eCommerce meetup last night and she said she'd be interested in attending the meetup.

@Kerin12, I'll put you down as a 'Yes' :)

Hey all,

Haven't posted here much but have read a bit. Great place and love the fastlane concept.

Anyway, I'm based in NZ and early next year I would be keen for another trip to Sydney and a meetup. As long as we go to dinner at Jamie's Italian, its awesome.

Any NZ based people here?

Ooh sounds like a plan! I've never been to Jamie's Italian but heard great things. Always wanted to try it.

Cool! Sounds like we have a few takers.

OzGrinder mentioned a weekday in the city would be preferable.

So how about this Thu 5 Dec 6pm @ Gloria Jeans The Galeries (cnr Pitt & Park)?

Happy for other suggestions but a location close to Town Hall may be easier transportation wise for all.

@myusername - Will let you know in advance when if there's one early next year.

Hey guys,

So sorry, but I won't be able to make it this Thursday. I've another commitment on that night - totally slipped my mind! I was so looking forward to catching up with you all :(

Let me know when you have another meetup and I'll hopefully be able to make it to that one.

Cheers

No problems Kerin.

I'll postpone the meetup until after Xmas and give everyone more notice for one early next year.

Thanks for organizing this mate. The venue sounds fine, that should be an easy place to get to for all.

After Xmas/new year is preferred by me also at this point. Let's definitely make sure we do it.

Just an early reminder about the upcoming Sydney meetup.

Date: Thu 30 Jan 2014
Time: 6pm
Place: Gloria Jeans The Galeries (cnr Pitt & Park), Town Hall

We can catch a bite afterwards, but hopefully Gloria Jeans is a pretty central meeting place for everyone.

Previously, the following members have expressed interest: @OzGrinder, @Kerin12, @myusername, @teabag

Let me know if any other Sydney-siders or visitors are interested in coming, as I'll send out another reminder closer to the date.

If you can make it, please mark it in your calendar.

EDIT: Sorry, I changed the date to Friday as I just realised I may not be in town on Thursday. Hope this OK.

EDIT 2: Reset to original date of Thu 30 Jan.

Hey all.

Good work organising this and hopefully it gets attended well. Sadly I wont be able to make it. Things arent quite where they need to be right now. Bit more of a commitment coming over from NZ but would be keen for another one in april or something. Have family working on pitt st so very convenient.

Best of luck all!

Keen for the meetup, but unfortunately I've got a cabin booked down the coast for Friday the 31st and will be down there that weekend. I need to be out of the city by 4pm at the latest (if I even end up coming into the city at all).

So I can't make that date unfortunately :(. Any other night that week (or the next one) is fine if you're willing to reschedule? Venue is perfectly fine too. Otherwise I can't make this one, sorry mate.

Mate, sorry for changing the date we set earlier. I wasn't sure if I'd make it in time on Thursday, so I changed it Friday.

Let's set it back to the 30th as agreed earlier. I should be OK shifting a few things around, and can come into the city if I'm not in town already.

Here's the confirmed meetup details (I'll re-edit my earlier post too):

Date: Thu 30 Jan 2014
Time: 6pm
Place: Gloria Jeans The Galeries (cnr Pitt & Park), Town Hall
