Comment by Adrian Wiggins on March 3, 2010 at 20:48: Ok - so here's how it works – we need a venue, a first title and we need to get the message out to the friends.

The venue needs to be quiet, probably on a main strip like Glebe or Newtown.

Comment by Fiona Wright on July 3, 2010 at 22:58: How about Madame Fling Flong's for a venue - it's on King St, quiet during the week, it's cosy and cute and it's yummy.

Comment by Sheila Monaghan on July 4, 2010 at 8:54: I would love to see this thing happen.

Comment by Adrian Wiggins on July 4, 2010 at 23:24: Oops – just checked their website. Tuesdays is movie night at Fling Flongs. How about Monday July 26th?

Comment by Greg McLaren on July 5, 2010 at 15:46: Yep, yep, yep. Great for me. Cannot wait. Tanks for organising this, Wiggo.

Comment by Sheila Monaghan on July 6, 2010 at 14:40: Just picked up a copy from the library - count me in!
