When:
    18.30 - 20.30, Friday, 27 June, 2008

We start at 18:30 but we ask that people arrive 15 minutes early so we 
can all get into the building and start on time. Please do not arrive 
before 18:00, as it may hinder business activities for our host!

Appropriate signage and directions will be posted on the building.

    (corner of Sussex and Market Street)

Entry is via the rear on Slip Street. There are stairs going down along 
the outside of building from Sussex St to near the entrance. A map of 
the area and directions can be found here[1].

Dinner is at Golden Harbour Restaurant, in Chinatown. We will be having 
the $24 Banquet[3], but we will be collecting $25 per head for ease of 
accounting and to cover a tip. We will be taking numbers during the 
break to confirm the reservation size. If you have any particular 
dietary requirements (e.g. vegetarian), or if you would prefer to order 
separately, let us know beforehand. Dinner is a great way to socialise 
and learn in a relaxed atmosphere :)

We hope to see you there!
