STUB http://sydney.twitterusergroup.com Sydney Twitter Underground Brigade Mon, 19 May 2008 03:45:47 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 en STUB6, With an Added Farewell to @bck http://sydney.twitterusergroup.com/2008/05/15/stub6-with-an-added-fairwell-to-bck/ http://sydney.twitterusergroup.com/2008/05/15/stub6-with-an-added-fairwell-to-bck/#comments Thu, 15 May 2008 11:48:03 +0000 bck http://sydney.twitterusergroup.com/2008/05/15/stub6-with-an-added-fairwell-to-bck/ Ladies and gentleman, it is that time again. Time for us to cast off the shackles of the office, the intarwebs, and anything else that’s holding us back, and gather for a night of fun. That’s right, it is STUB time again, and it could very well be my (@bck) last, since I’m moving to San Francisco next week - some come on out and make it great!

The details are:

  • Date: Wednesday, May 21
  • Time: 6:00pm
  • Location: Kippax Lounge, The Aurora Hotel
  • Address: 324 Elizabeth St, Surry Hills (map)
  • Facebook Event

The Aurora should have the heaters working this time around, so we won’t have to cuddle together so much (unless you want to…). There will be sponsored drinks, as always, and we are still looking for more sponsors - get in touch with @eskimo_sparky or @bck if you are interested in getting involved.

Updated: Please note that we’re on the middle floor of the Aurora now, instead of on the roof. Warmth for all!

We’ll start at dinner, then head somewhere for drinks after.

There are few venues to pick so why don’t you have a go at deciding where. Obviously, the venue has to be within walkable distance from public transport.

Here are some, suggest more if you prefer:

  • huntleys point
  • balmoral
  • blackwattle
  • clarkes point
  • lane cove

UPDATE: It has been decided that we meet at the Blackwattle Bay in Glebe (end of Glebe Point Rd) at 12:30pm. More specific location information will be updated.

This is the first full STUB meetup for the year and Happener are sponsoring it again. If you’d like to chip in or get more sponsors involved, then feel free to drop an email to stub ___AT__ geekwhisperer.com for more information.

This just in! STUB5 will be at The Rooftop at Bar Aurora, 324 Elizabeth Street. It’s just behind Central and fairly easy to find, ask a friendly local if lost. And for those playing the home game, yes, this is the location of two previous STUB meets.

So come along, you know you want to. ;)
