To kick start the new year, we have been busy hooking up with blogger meet up groups that are occurring around Australia. We will doing a Nuffnang roadshow around Australia to meet bloggers from each city! Ming, founder of Nuffnang, will also join us to meet and greet bloggers.
So if you are free, please pop on over to come meet other bloggers from your neighborhood. We have some top Nuffnang bloggers, such as Karen Cheng, coming to the event too. Nuffnang will be providing a bar tab for drinks and some finger foods during the night. We’re still finalising some venues but the dates are confirmed:

I live in Perth.

:D

Shame there’s not really enough Canberra bloggers for such a thing. Oh well, maybe next year!
January 14th, 2009 at 5:53 pm
Woot! The first Nuffnang ever in Australia, especially Perth!
Am stoked as I have a Malaysian Nuffnang account and never thought that Nuffnang would reach down under.
Count me in!

For the Perth Blogger Meet-Up, the venue is at Brass Monkey.
According to my older sister, one has to be over 18 years old to enter it.
Does this rule apply to this event?
(Does anyone know?)
:/
January 18th, 2009 at 8:32 pm
We’ll be dropping by the Melbourne Meet-Up! So do come and say hello to us… :)
Regards,
Grace, Lachlan, Lucas and… Gary.

HI
Would like to come along to the Loft in Sydney

Hi Marie,
There’s always a bouncer at the doors of Brass Monkey, so i’m guessing you do have to be 18. Unless nuffnang has made special arrangements for underaged visitors.
If they don’t let you in….. maybe you can try telling them you have a blind date in their upstairs restaurant? and then sneak back down.
January 19th, 2009 at 2:16 pm
Hi Will,
Yeah, that probably means that people under 18 will not be allowed in.
But thanks for the idea anyway, ahaha.
But I guess I could probably explain the situation to the bouncer.
Hopefully, he’ll understand.
Thanks for the reply, by the way.
Marie.
January 19th, 2009 at 3:40 pm
hi! there seem to be VERY few people attending the brisbane meetup :(
i’m wondering if it’s ok to bring an extra 2 of my blogging buddies :3– it will probably get them interested in signing up for nuffnang!
ta~
January 20th, 2009 at 7:29 am
Do we need to rsvp? ;)
January 20th, 2009 at 6:33 pm
By the way, I’ve emailed the person at Brass Monkey and got this reply:
Hi Marie,
Licensing and House Policies place the following restrictions:
- Under 18s must be accompanied by a Parent or Legal Guardian in possession of papers, I.D. that state as much.
- All people under 18 years of age must vacate the premises at or before 9:00pm.
Hope this answers your question,
Cheers,
David Fisquet

& Grapeskin Wine Bar/Cellar
So would any over 18 Perth-ians like to be a Legal Guardian for both me and my friend?
January 20th, 2009 at 8:51 pm
Hey Grace,
Oh that’s weird but cool at the same time… would you be taking your boys? Not sure if I’ll be bringing along Arielle.
Nuffnang… do we bring the kids? I’m assuming it will be pretty boring for them. *shrug*
Cheers

Hi Ming & David & Co
Many thanks for sponsoring the SMCB event last night in Brisbane – here’s hoping that the community embraces Nuffnang and what you guys do!
You rock!

Ooo Sounds like fun!!
Looking forward to having a Jolly Good time!
See you Sydney-siders at The Loft!!
January 21st, 2009 at 7:28 pm
Hi awesome people, I read someone typed about the very few number of people would attend the Brisbane meet up. Well the truth is, MANY came, okay. So cheers. And I’m sure MANY will attend the rest meet-up(s) too.
Ciao!

Hi Guys,
Sadly I did not realise that this was on the same day as the Cricket (seeing Australia V South Africa) so I will be unable to attend :(
Count me in for the next one tho!
