    I am curious as how many of us are from Qld and perhaps live in the SE corner.
    Seeing as how Sydney having a preconvention gathering was wondering if perhaps if enough available and or interested we could do the same.

    I think it’s a definite possibility, as I got a few Brisbane flyering volunteers (all very quick to reply). Not sure how many lurk on the forums tho

    (Waves), I’d be interesed in Brisbane Meet-up, would be good to know someone before heading to Melbourne. Weekends are best for me (as I’ve got school-aged children). I’m going to be attending the Bris Arts Theatre “Night Watch” performance on the 28th Oct, if that helps.

    Must say I do want to get to that but will have to wait and see.

    Try a good costume shop. I was flyering for the con with Grombek down here and the local costume shop had blue body paint for sale. =)

    Erk – last post vanished into the ether. Try some Indian shops – particularly if there is a community which does theatre or dance somewhere nearby. Indian gods (particularly Krishna and occasionally Shiva) are portrayed as having blue skin.

    I’m in Brisbane and would be interested in a meet or something similar. Unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to get to the con this year but who knows.

    Alright, we had no success in getting a pre-con meeting but perhaps we can start getting together occasionally
    post-con.

    Count me in, too. Perhaps, in fairness to the fact that we’re fairly scattered, we can do a round-robin at each other’s places, or else find somewhere relatively central to all?
