    Guys,

    I have booked a court for Thursday 23rd March at Springers Leisure Centre. The address is 400 Cheltenham Road, Keysborough. It's Court 3, from 8.00pm to 11.00pm. We have the option of a second court if required. Drop by for a chat even if you can't play on Thursday night.

    The attendees are:
    Kim
    Kiong-19
    Loh
    David (Loh's friend)
    Yvonne (Loh's friend)
    Twodogs
    FEND
    BadFever

    For those who can't join us on Thursday, I believe Twodogs is trying organise another session at Altona for Saturday afternoon.

    I will come provided someone can provide me transport to and fro from the place. I don't want to get stabbed on the trains.

    No worries Kim. I think it's best if you call me earlier than 11 at night. My room mates were startled at the phone at such late hour since they're working in the morning :p

    I can't make it on thursday - its my dancing night :(
    I should find out tomorrow night if we've got the court for saturday at altona. We have to wait to find out if the competitors want to use it sat morning for practice or not. I'll txt the ppl who I know are interested as soon as I find out, and hopefully one of them will be able to post it on here (I won't be able to until about midnight, cos I'm playing tomorrow night).

    I live in Box Hill. So, I will be driving to Springers Centre along Springvale Road. If anyone need a lift, feel free to leave a message. I'll check this thread again tomorrow before I finish work(latest 7pm). You might want to pm me your address or phone number. Thanks again Kim for organising this game.

    Sorry fellas,

    Would have liked to come, but have to work overtime tomorrow :'(
    Although, that was because of me leaving earlier today to attend Comm. Games :p

    Speaking of which.. I think I saw Adelina and three others in Crown Food Court. Sorry I didn't say hi! Was rushed! :(

    Book it Kim, I'm sure most people will be able to make it. I know Maz, FEND, Loh and I are definitely will be able to make it (provided we have transport to this place).

    Where would this be? I'm interested.

    Adelina, Maz, FEND and Loh, all of you are staying at Urban Central?
    I should be able to pick all of you up in my car.

    Edit: Should have read the thread fully :)
    I live on South Melbourne area, so I can easily drop by to Victoria Hotel as well.
