Robbies Betta Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 well they say beer has heaps of calories, so might as well drink as much as I would've eaten :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Najoha Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 Di and I will be down! I would like to go to Gavin's and Auburn as I haven't been. Strictly is very close to Gavin's at Beverly Hills, Basic stuff but usually a lot of male betta's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbies Betta Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 I can't believe that you guys have got soo many wicked aquariums there. all the bigger ones down here are far away, and I live only 15mins from the city :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango4Jade Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 When we are at auburn we can go to H2o Aquariums in Homebush West, some bettas, but got other fish as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Najoha Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 Has anyone contacted Gavin at Bexley? Would a Sydney local Like to put an itinerary together for us? I have started saving petrol money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzy_dragonfly Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 Bummer , My driver is probebly not going to be available (but I'll see what he says when it gets closer to the date - I'll have to do some serious sucking up ) . Shame I can't drive the bus. So if it's not too much of an inconvinience can I organise a carpool with someone? Just as a backup. I'd be happy to pay the fare for the day . I have not got the foggiest idea when it comes to fancy food restaurants, I'll leave that up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango4Jade Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 OMG! I cant wait for this trip! I already got all the things listed in my head to get on the trip Has there been a place settled for the meeting place yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callatya Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 So the plan is to cover St George Bexley Bettas Tropical Waters Pets Paradise Burwood SLS Auburn H2O And we have a group coming from Ryde and a group coming from Holsworthy, one from Newey and possibly a group coming from Klara's way. Have I missed anyone? From experience, that is WAY too many shops. Taking into account that you can easily blow 2 hours at SLS, again at Gavin's and again at St George, and the driving time and food requirements, we are going to have to edit that listing. The most I have heard of done in a day was 7, and that was only 3 people in one car with a set plan of what they wanted :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzy_dragonfly Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 I'd like for Auburn, SLS and Bexley to stay on the list if nothing else. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callatya Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 I think those 3 are my top choices too. I quite like Auburn and I do think it is worth the trip, however it is about 1/2 hour from Central with no traffic. If it comes to it, we could always split into 2 after lunch i guess, but it kinda defeats the purpose a bit So hard, we all need berocca so we can get a 27 hour day!

Chuckie Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 Has anyone been in touch with Gavin? Bexley Bettas will not be possible if he's not in the country/otherwise available. Also, my vote is definitely AGAINST a fancy restaurant for lunch, I really don't think that's necessary, it's expensive and will take a lot more time, which we may not be able to afford if we have a few shops to get around to. I personally would prefer to stop off at Brighton Le Sands on the beach, say for takewaway fish and chips etc between SLS and St George. There are heaps of takeaway places at Brighton, some more er, sophisticated than others, and if we make it a picnic we get a good chance to sit and chat and move on at our leisure. Thoughts? Maybe we should also bring along anything for swap/sale, like on the Newcastle trip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 These are the 4 i would like to go to: St George Bexley Bettas Tropical Waters H2O But am more than happy to go to the others I think we should find a cheap place for lunch - more money to spend on fish, and one think i have learned on trips like this - You always need more money :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzy_dragonfly Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 I stopped off at Brighton Le Sands beach the other day, my sister has to make a model of the 12 apostles we needed to get some ideas. Tons of blue soldier crabs, jellyfish and 15cm red sea stars this time of year. I agree, the fancy restaurant will take up too much fishing time.

Liz40 Posted September 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 Hang on, hang on...what if I wanted to go to a fancy restaurant??????? This is my visit too ya know!!!! Heh, heh...just jokes. Fish n chips is fine with me. But...I do have one request...a good coffee thanks folks. I reckon 4 to 5 petshops is realistic. You won't do 7. Who is picking me up from the CBD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callatya Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 If we want to do a restaurant, we should make it for after the shops are closed I am too skint to go though, so i'll be running home Where in the CBD are you going to be?
