edgy Posted 27February, 2019 Report Share Posted 27February, 2019 Hello esteemed members of PFA. It's been a while since we did any midweek social activities... since I am doing a whole bunch of un-character like, and, well, frankly stupid Porsche things such as; 2.5 tiptronic Boxster, selling my much loved GT3 (well trying to) and so forth, I think it would be a good time to get the Sydney crew together for a catch up, and see if I have really have taken the title in the stupidity stakes or not? I want to say @OBRUT was in the race and did something really stupid by buying a forward dated 71 flachbau cab, but its actually an awesome car and he kept all his good ones...so he survives this round, and I am truly an idiot. So does anyone care to challenge me for the title of village idiot over some pub grub & libations? Update (06/03/19) DETAILS: This is now locked in, the date and venue are set, I have made a reservation for the dining room, I suggest meeting around 7pm onward as the free street parking on Oxford St becomes available at 7:00pm and is usually plentiful at that hour. We will have some time to have a couple of drinks at the bar prior to taking our table in the dining room. We have an interstate guest @Jason A joining us all the way from QLD. This should be good folks, I am looking forward to it! Of course, any late starters are still welcome to join in!! Please express your interest in this thread. Where: Hotel Centennial - Corner of Oxford St & Victoria Ave, Woollahra NSW 2025 When: Wednesday 20th of March 2019, from 7:00pm Who (confirmed): edgy Obrut Tips JonoF jakroo Jason A Itsujack robert930 Timbo911 Update 2.0, OPTIONAL Pre-drinks : @itsujack (Jad) has invited everyone over to their new studio for some pre-drinks in Surry Hills, there is a very, very nice specimen of a Porsche classic on display I am happy to arrange a few nice craft beers or some nice wines that can be sampled if its of interest to anyone. SO If anyone would like to see the freshest fried eggs beforehand, they'll be resting in our new design studio, so I'd like to invite everyone for a pre-dinner drink for those who can get away a bit earlier, from 6pm (it's a 5min drive to Centennial for 7pm). Address is: Silvester Fuller, 12 Little Riley Street, Surry Hills, NSW 2010 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OBRUT Posted 27February, 2019 Report Share Posted 27February, 2019 The slant is off for a service tomorrow, then the winner will be known. I’m in for dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakroo Posted 27February, 2019 Report Share Posted 27February, 2019 I have no desire to be the recognised village idiot, I'm already the family idiot. 🤪 I'm in for dinner as well, and I not concerned about what shape the table is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edgy Posted 27February, 2019 Author Report Share Posted 27February, 2019 I'll just leave this decision to the panel... I reckon you give me a solid run for the $$$ @JonoF Alright dates? I am relatively free until April rolls in, then it gets hot & heavy on commitments... I'm thinking a Thursday? How does the Thursday 14th or the 28th of March look if people need a bit more notice?

JonoF Posted 27February, 2019 Report Share Posted 27February, 2019 I’m jammed 14 - 17 March with the F1. I’ll be doing “legal compliance checking” in the hospitality suite above pit lane with work. I’m then in Vietnam for work on w/c 25 March. But good availability prior and between those dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does the Thursday 14th or the 28th of March look I’m pretty flexible and Thursday’s are good, interstate travel sometime pops at short notice so will work travel around a date when it’s diecidoed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Week commencing 18th ok? I have a specialist on the morning of Friday 22nd, so preference is not to be out prior to that, so maybe the Wednesday or even Tuesday that week? I am really free most week nights of march otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tips Posted 28February, 2019 Report Share Posted 28February, 2019 I’m good both tues and wed nights. so venue. Centennial, fix, paddo, or inner west cockatoo, queen chow.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavn Posted 28February, 2019 Report Share Posted 28February, 2019 Keen - free most nights in March. I have an iron grip on the idiot throne in our immediate family/friends (they're all so sensible...) so it would be fantastic for me to have a greater idiot to point to.

Centennial, fix, paddo, or inner west cockatoo, queen chow.... Paddo Inn is great, food is good... however parking a little crappy if it’s a bit earlier, and being a weeknight we will want to kick off a reasonable hour... I think Centennial just works great because it’s low key, nice space, great food/wine and ample parking. Unless we wanted to do the Friday evening? At this stage I can, but understand that it’s potentially harder for some others... but give us feedback!! We could kick it off at a cocktail bar again! 😂 1 hour ago, Gavin (CliffToCoast) said: Keen - free most nights in March.

Sounds like a challenge thrown down... and you have some nice rides Gav, but we want to hear the drama really! 😂 Be good to catch up mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes looks like there has been a flurry of sight unseen, roll the dice, post purchase inspection buying occurring over the past few weeks by a few PFA folk. Love it... keen to hear your Adelaide story as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
