Please check the location: http://www.observatorycafe.com.au/

Please have a look!

"The Observatory Cafe" is situated in Birdwood Avenue, South Yarra, opposite the Shrine of Remembrance, in the heart of the Royal Botanic Gardens. It neighbours the old Observatory buildings (1861) and is located next to the Royal Botanic Gardens visitors' centre.

Not to be confused with "The Observatory", which is an expensive restaurant nearby.

Look for "The Observatory Cafe" on Birdwood Ave., South of the Botanic Gardens.

We need one or two volunteers to arrive with me, about 9.30 am, to secure tables for 10.30. Bookings are not taken on Sundays so we have to make sure to book with our presence.

Anybody willing and able to help will be welcome!

suggestion Aug 15, 2007

I would be interested in hearing how we can 'prozianise' Australia, i.e. how can we make things as efficient and fun at the same time as Proz.
I am also happy to try and help out with Wordfast/PDF converter.

what a pity! Aug 28, 2007

we'll be in Melbourne just 2 weeks too soon (13th through 15th September wall-to-wall) but by 30th we'll be (hopefully) half-way to Sydney (by sea).
Any chance of bumping into some prozians? (we - that's jowitrans and I - just held a powwow here, no. 1292 it was)
