That sounds like a great day for you.
We will be in Brisbane on the 2nd and 3rd Sept. for a wedding at Mt.Gravatt. but thento Tweed Heads for a couple of days.
Would love to meet some of the Rosies.
Marion

Hi Brissy. Great idea. The park should be looking good .
I hope we can get a full holiday report from you.
Regards, Shane

Yes, just name the time and the place and I'll be there.
It would be lovely if it could be Sept 2 or 3 so Marion could be there.
Annie

I agree, so when is the wedding Marion? Also what is better for most, a Sat or a Sun? Do some people work on Sat?

Come on quiet ones on the forum, we would love you to come to this fun afternoon and be able enjoy an afternoon with our small group, whom all just love growing roses!

Cheers,

Brissy

That would be so exciting.
The wedding is on the Saturday afternoon till late.

Sunday is free as most of the family will be on their ways home by then and Henry and I will have a day to ourselves.

Marion, who would love to meet the names on the forum

So if we have the date for Sept 4th at 12.30.

Scubamaid are you around?? I'm sure your sister would love a visit around this weekend??? :)

Shane it would be good if you could come this time, Annie as always, it will be wonderful to see you. Marion that's great it will work in with your plans.

Ok everyone else .....

Brissy

I'll try to get the right day this time. Looking forward to meeting the rosies.

Hazel.

I should be able to make it Saturday the 4th.

Sally

Hi Sally,

You meant, Sunday the 4th, I hope : )

Brissy

Hi. Sunday the 4th sounds good. Even if i have to work in the morning i will still be there , but a bit late. Looking forward to catching up .
Regards,
Shane.

If we meet at 1pm what time could you get there Shane? Or what time can you leave Toowoomba to get to New Farm is a better question

Cheers,

Brissy

I will work around your plans.It depends on work really, but i will get there by no later than 2pm.
Shane

We are just back home again.

How exciting to be included and we will be there for sure on the 4th September.
It has been a long time since I left Brisbane to live in the Country so it will be great to see New Farm park again

Looking forward to meeting you all.
Marion

Great, there are a few of us already and it's only the start of August.

Come on, there must be a few more of you lurking out there that would love to come????

Brissy

I would like to come along but will have to wait until the day - we have a party to go to the night before so it will depend on how I am feeling on the Sunday.

V

Hi Vee,

Maybe a solution, what side of Brisbane do you live? If someone could pick you up on the way so you didn't have to drive that might be a better solution for your night on the light fantastic and you wouldn't miss out on the afternoon plus you could order a nice greasy lunch to help with the damage : )

Brissy

Brissy

I am at Holland Park - just near you - remember?

The driving isn't the issue, just didn't want to sit there like a zombie that's all.

Sorry I forgot, if your ok to come I can drive you anyway rather than two cars.

Brissy

Hi All,
New Farm Park,All the roses were pruned last 2 weeks and are being mulched this week, sprayed and tidied up.If you would like to travel by bus to New Farm Park take the 190 Bus from Adelaide St the City or catch the City Cat to New Farm Park Terminal short walk to Rose Gardens, will be fairly crowded as well. If you would like to get a bus load together I would be able to organise 1 for the afternoon at minimal costs and drive for free. Lets make a day of it ? Peter r

Hi Peter,

I don't think we need a bus to get somewhere so central this time, I think all of us have cars and come in different directions, but if we plan a day to Toowoomba or around show gardens in the future we will certainly need your bus.

We could maybe talk about if people would like to do a day of rose touring when we meet in Sept. : )

Thanks again for your offer.

Brissy

I like that idea, Brissy....a whole of touring gardens, roses (or otherwise, I don't mind), maybe lunch, too? or a picnic?

Ok, lets put our thinking caps on for a days touring around maybe Nov. Where can we go for the day with maybe 3-4 stops with a nice place for lunch.

Lets talk more at our catch up. Peter it looks like your on a winner. : )

Brissy,
If Sept 4th is definite I could come, need to know quickly so I can book a cheap flight.
Cheers
Judy

What a champion you are scubamid! It was lovely you were able to come last time and it will be great catching up with you again.
Where are you staying, do you need a lift? As someone will be coming from your side of town.

Cheers,

Brissy

I'm very new to roses, but, YES! I think I'll be able to come. It will depend whether I have indoor hockey in the morning or afternoon, but I will aim to be there. I'll probably bring Mum too; she's an Iceberg fan.

Cheers,

Corey

P.S. Thanks for mentioning this Brissy!

Geez,
Just waiting a day and I have missed the cheapest fares at the best times. I will keep watch for others and if I can I will come.
Cheers
Judy

Is there anyone in the Mt.Gravatt area,?
We will be staying at a motel there for the wedding and checking out on the Sunday morning and heading in to New Farm Park and then catching a bus to Tweed Heads after the Rosies get together.
So long since I have been a Brisbanite I get lost easily. It used to be such a large country town in those days and Mt.Gravatt was the last suburb before the Gold Coast. !!!!

Marion, who bought a lovely little yellow miniature rose today, pretty little thing it is.

Hi Marion,

I live in a suburb near to Mt Gravatt, so I will pick you up! Contact me on my home page and we will tee it up.

Does anyone else need a lift from the Southside? I have room for 4.

Cheers,

Brissy

Thank yyou Brissy, I have answered you on the email.

We are looking forward to meeting you all.

Marion

Hi Shane,

Could you bring a selection of roses to sell for the day? There would be some happy buyers I'm sure. Are you still ok for the 1pm meet? Would you leave Toowoomba at 11?

Moreton, how are the roses looking in New Farm Park?

Cheers,

Brissy

Hi there, I am off to W.A for ten days. Getting back on the friday before the catch up. I am still ok for the catch up. Hope to bring some roses.
Regards, Shane
