SYD Sydney Meetup - Saturday 11th February - 2pm - 4pm

[todras]

After very little discussion and even less planning @Snooze and I are planning to have a few beers and grabbing some lunch on a Saturday afternoon on Saturday 11th February from 2pm to 4pm at the Riverview Hotel in Balmain and we are throwing it open and welcoming everyone to come and join us for a very informal, very relaxed arvo talking wet-shaving.

This is a lovely pub with a relaxed, chilled atmosphere, an excellent menu and a fine selection on tap. Nothing too dressy, nothing to expensive just your regular Aussie pub with an award winning menu and some bloody good beverages.

I will bring the full range of APR in sample size for people to smell and check out, I will also bring some Monsta Myrtle samples to give away free and quite possibly some other samples

Additionally I will bring along the Timeless razor I picked up recently, Stone Cottage Soapworks samples, Mystic Water Samples and whatever else I can dig up that people might find interesting.

Everyone is welcome - this is a low key, very very casual, informal lunch and a couple of beers affair to talk wet shaving in person on a Saturday afternoon for a couple of hours.

When: Saturday 11th February, 2pm to 4pm
Where: The Riverview Hotel, 29 Birchgrove Road, Balmain Google Maps Reference
What to bring: Whatever you like, new soaps, creams, hardware or even nothing at all

So there we are, we are planning on doing these once a month or possibly even twice a month depending on our family commitments. Come along if you like, it would be good to see you all there and finally meet you in person.

Cheers,

Dan & Tony

Given your international 'A' list status, I won't rule out flying you up as a special guest at a future meeting

A brief glimpse of all the scents I will bring along for smelling, splashing and enjoying alongside the free samples of the Monsta Myrtle!


@Monsta_AU @SydBJW @borked @MrT @tullfan @nav1 @SpeedyPC @Nonick @Question @Mark @Brendan @dewynter @pyrokov @cranky @thisISjoel @gthomas04 @Snooze and of course anyone else I have missed. It would be great to see you all there at the first of what is planned as a regular meet up

Dont worry @Keen edge - if we can make this a bi-weekly or regular monthly event, people can just drop by when they get a chance.
Good luck in your comp

The Stone Cottage Soapworks samples (left), the Mystic Water Samples (rear) and on the right we have Eufros/Jabonman samples which I will be bringing so people can have a smell on the day. No these are not for sale I'm sorry to say but you are more than welcome to smell to your hearts content. It's a great way of checking out often expensive soaps without going in blind

I am a compulsive sample acquirer with a serious SAD so there may be more on the day including a test sample of Manuels new Rosa Bourbon in tallow!!

I plan to be there. [emoji1417]
It'll be fantastic to meet you both @todras and @Snooze for the first time.

Thank you for organising. I've already spilt enough bytes elsewhere about micro-meets and larger events. Nice to see something come into fruition.

Really looking forward to meeting you too mate and great to have you on board and at the helm as the NSW State Convenor too. I reckon we will have a great afternoon and a lot of laughs

 

[Amicus]

May come along as well?

I may have some Jabonman to bring along (Gea, Lime Spices and East Breeze), and perhaps a Martin de Candre Foutere, depending on what arrives by the 11th.

 

[tullfan]

Love to be there but family commitments in Canberra clash,but I will absolutely be turning up at future meetings

You poor soul, can't catch a break regarding meetup's, can you mate?

@OP I may be there

@Amicus is there a reason we shouldn't allow you to attend?

 

[SpeedyPC]

I won't be going so I'm out and you guys have a great time and don't get too drunk on the way home

Thank you for the confirmation Speedy.

 

[SydBJW]

Thanks for organizing @todras, am trying to make it just have to confirm with the better half.

 

[Rami]

Will try to make it based on whether I can arrange someone to look after the rugrat.

Sadly, given my well known delight in attending social events, I will be in NZ at the time. Please keep me informed of any new dates so I can make sure I book my plane tickets in advance,
