Nigel, I'll be there. Already have your address.

forcheville · 10-18-2009, 06:17 PM

Yes, have the address. See you Sunday.

cbell · 10-18-2009, 07:15 PM

Blast, sorry! Next time, definitely

fugazied · 10-18-2009, 09:16 PM

Damn, I'm in Australia at the moment, but too far from Melbourne!

Patricia · 10-18-2009, 10:24 PM

I've added a reminder to the front page of the forum, together with a picture of Melbourne that is probably irrelevant, but pretty.

m-reader · 10-19-2009, 03:27 AM

I'm never home when something interesting is happening ...
Catch you next time!

Laine · 10-19-2009, 04:30 PM

I have my train ticket and my hotel reservation.

sianon · 10-22-2009, 08:01 PM

Nigel, I will be there. Is it ok if I bring two more people with me.

RobbieClarken · 10-23-2009, 12:17 AM

Just checking in to say I will almost certainly be coming. I have a work Open Day thing in the morning but unless it is mayhem there I will be sneaking out early for the meet-up.

I look forward to seeing how many people have the new international Kindles.

nigeldb · 10-23-2009, 03:05 AM

Sianon,

No problem, the more the merrier

carlobee · 10-23-2009, 03:23 AM

i'm too far.

hope you all will have a great time there!

vivaldirules · 10-23-2009, 08:26 PM

I'm about to get on a plane out of Melbourne. I've enjoyed my week stay near here and was particularly pleased with the delightful people I met. I'm sorry to miss your meet-up and hope that you have a great time! Oh, and I now can fully appreciate the difficulties some of you have in getting to your meet-up site. I can only hope that you cope somehow with the growth here. Cheers!

millydog · 10-25-2009, 07:14 AM

I'm sorry that I couldn't make it today. I had one sick child and came down with a sore throat myself.

I really wanted to come. I just so much like talking about e-readers and with all the new devices coming out, it's quite exciting. I just saw the photos & it looks like you had a good time.
I hope to be able to come next time.

Jodi
