The Horses' Doofers sound good to me. Look forward to seeing everyone there on the 23rd.

So what time are does this officially start vs when do people start to roll in?

Also, Saint, any recommendations for parking near there? Car parks next to Raffles place are over $6/hour during the day, not sure at night, and not sure if there is a better place to leave the car. Since I'll be coming from the office a taxi isn't an option :(

That would cover three out of four corners of the island :P More of a chance I'll come home early and taxi it back to the city.

The best place and definitely the cheapest place to park is under the parliament building. Go down North Bridge Road, turn left at lights at parliament building and straight right. Not many people realise there's a public car park there and probably the most secure!

Turns out the preparations are done, faster than the initial plan.
But is it still okay for me to join? :-|
