Wongo in Melbourne

**Wongo** · 14th December 2004, 02:16 PM

Hi there

I will be in Melbourne on Wednesday and Thursday. I am busy during the day but free on Wednesday night. Are there any hardware stores (Bunnings??) in the city that I can go to after office hours? (I know it is sad.) I would prefer to go somewhere within walking distance as I do not know much about Melbourne.

OR

You can take me out for a nice meal.

Cheers

Marriot Hotel (Lonsdale Street) but I am trying to change it to one which is closer to my office in Collins Street.

If you're only staying one night, you'll probably only need a bikinus.

Now you are making me nervous. I look forward to meeting you good people.

I took a change of clothes in a hurry this morning but forgot to take a pair of shoes. :mad: Now I have to stick with suit the whole time. Let’s hope the weather stays dry hay. Should I take my umbrella? Just to be safe.

Wongo,

Don't worry about your attire apart from getting cobwebs and sawdust and fine plane shavings on them.

I hope you packed your foil hat.

**DaveInOz** · 15th December 2004, 10:14 AM

Wongo,

Sorry I will miss you (and Borers meat cremation) but I was pre booked for Wednesday night .... bloody season of goodwill and parties
