Nancyk Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I will be there with Klaus - travelling down from Sydney. Tickets paid for, accomodation books - just got to organise flights. We attended last year and it was a fabulous occasion and wonderful to meet so many really good people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Anne~ Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Flight availabilities for the reasonable times are dissappearing very quickly - I'd jump in while you can unless you don't mind doing red-eyes there and back or similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldchow Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 We booked our flights several weeks ago due to the fact that reasonable flight times were disappearing very quickly. Marg Coles has changed her mind and has decided to come along also and will be travelling with us, she thoroughly enjoys the night. The Jika International isn't a huge place, with limited accomodation so anyone wanting to stay at the actual venue will need to book earlier rather than later otherwise accomodation will need to be found further afield. As Steve mentioned earlier, the MDBA has reserved all available accomodation for those attending the Awards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JulesP Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 (edited) Can someone tell me how the seating works? Are we allocated tables? If I go I don't think I will know anyone which is scary but I would like to support it. Edited January 25, 2011 by JulesP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldchow Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 JulesP if there's anyone you know attending and you'd like to sit with them just lets know, we've had so many comments about what a great crowd all those attending are that I'm sure you'd have no trouble fitting in. We'd love to see you there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huski Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Can't wait to meet you Suz! Julie just to clarify, is it assigned seating or can we make up our own tables when we get there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Anne~ Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Can't wait to meet you Suz! Julie just to clarify, is it assigned seating or can we make up our own tables when we get there? It is assigned seating. However, if you have preference of who you would like to sit with, you can let them know and they will arrange it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~*Shell*~ Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 (edited) Lol - from neither of us can afford it to "oh, you're going? I'm going too!". Flights, car hire and ticket booked so I'll definitely be there! Who do I need to email about seating arrangements?

SHAR PEI Rescue Inc Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 (edited) Seems there are a few Victorian Shar Pei Addicts wanting to attend. I think the count is currently up to about a dozen and rising so I'm guessing there will be a few "wrinklies" there!! AND.........as HENRY'S pet friendly 5 star B&B @ SHAR PEI Rescue Inc on the glorious Mornington Peninsular is due to open in April, 2011, we would like to offer 2 x separate rooms (one Chinese and one French) to those wanting overnight accommodation. The Chinese room will accommodate 2 adults (1 x queen size bed) and the French room 3 adults (1 x queen bed and 1 x double sofa bed) As we will not (officially) be open at that stage, minor renovation (finishing touches) will probably still be going on so please take this into account. No building works will be undertaken during your stay, but you may need to utilise the games room of the family home rather than the lounge room of the B&B to relax in. Not only will you have full use of the games room (which features an indoor/outdoor pool, full size billards table, 60 inch LCD TV, leather lounge (with Chaise) and bar), you will also have the private outdoor jacuzzi (off the b&B itself) which looks out onto rolling pastures at your disposal. We would like to offer this on a "highest donation" basis with all proceeds going to Steve for her to allocate to either MDBA or PACERS as per her discretion. Good luck punters......we Victorians know how to pei-ty, so be prepared!!! Note: the usual tariff for either room (once completed and operating) will be $300 per night for 2 people- $50 per extra person per night - Please PM me your offer and for which room and I will let you know who has been successful on 1/3/11 Edited February 13, 2011 by SHAR PEI Rescue Inc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Wow! Thank You Thank You. Of course all proceeds will go to Pacers - Thank You ! Ill contact you tomorrow so we can get something up on both websites for you and include it in the program [have to be quick] or the lady doing the program will turn into a pit bull.
