I know its early, but when might be the best time for everybody? I am thinking that the earlier we get a date set, the earlier people can start arranging the time off with employers, get money together for airfares (if needed) etc etc.

I agree! The sooner we get a time set the better!
I'm personally hoping for very early february - say the first weekend (the 4th, I believe).

In the interest of nailing down the dates, which is something we need to do asap I think to make sure we are going ahead..

* Febs out for me folks... if the majority go for Feb I'll have to bow out this time.

* Mid - Late Jan??
* Early Mar??

- Dez

I don't mind late january. Uni doesn't start till March

I am going to be in Victoria (Geelong/Lorne) from Feb 8th to Feb 26th - so it would have been convenient to tack it on to either side of that - but don't mind if it is in Late Jan or Early March either.

We should still try and hit it around a Public Holiday. Is there any chance others can take the Jan 27th Friday off - to allow 4 days (Australia Day 26th Thursday - 29th Sunday) ??

Yes or No - that weekend looks like it may fit the best...

Yes - that sounds fine. I'm submitting a holiday job application tomorrow, inwhich I need to know what days I can't work. So unless anyone objects by tomorrow I'm putting that down. If it gets changed then, I'm afraid you can count me out.

Ill check with my boss tonight. Being in retail, id need the friday and saturday off, but i should be able to swing it. Id actually have to take the following monday off as well, seeing as i start work at midnite monday.

I got the annual leave, and just like the last one, ill take a week off. I am fairly certain i can make that date, and i say we should try lock it in. For those working, that gives us 3 months to sort out the time off, which should be doable even for casuals.

If you cant make australia day, just fly down on the saturday for 2 days instead

I think the australia day weekend would be great, whether its just the weekend, or all 4 days (australia day through to the sunday) or a mix of the 2 for everyone (Cant make 4? Make 2 instead!).

Either way, it would be good to get the date hashed out now, mainly for Rotkus benefit. He is showing a willingness to fly from NZ, and i reckon we should try get him to ALFACon since he missed the last one.

Im all good for the 4 days if needs be
