Sorry, I won't be able to make it (Xmas catch up followed by a birthday party). Have fun all!

Cool reasons to come hang at my place and talk shit:

1. Deborah is nice as and probably has many cool photos of her trip
2. I'm baking cookies and brownies and they're pretty rad
3. It is literally covered in art that you can look at OR ignore (it's your choice)
4. All of my furniture is super cheap so while it's not the best we can revel in the bargains
5. I'm considered not the worst sort by most
6. Free tea (what? how MMM is that. hack the system, bank the profits.)
7. Laughs!

Sounds awesome!  However, the commute for me is a killer at the moment - living in the Netherlands for a few years.  Look forward to another one when I'm back in town!

The Hague. A spare bedroom and bathroom if any of the Canberra folks I know are passing through too.

The meetup isn’t happening today - probably just as well since it’s supposed to be very hot. Anyone got ideas for an alternative date?

It's about time we had another meetup. I could do this weekend, not the next, but the one after. Or can anyone make another suggestion?

I’m free the weekend 16/17 March (so far, at least).

Pretty busy until April. Can't do this weekend or next  one for sure. Maybeeither of the following ones before 23/24th March, but I need to get my parents house ready for settlement which might involve a last minute dash up to Sydney on either of those weekends.

It sounds like 17th March would work. Where would you like to meet? The arboretum?

I have to be in the inner north by 11am. I’m ok with outside if there’s no significant bushfire smoke or dust but would prefer an indoor location (arboretum does have the indoor visitors area). But, given I’ll be leaving early, you should probs go with a majority view, not just me.

Sorry... I don’t feel up to it tomorrow. Dealing with some difficult stuff. Hopefully others will be up to it.

Hi,  I'm new to this forum.  Please message me if you plan a meet up, I'm keen to meet other mustachians :)

I was listening to a 2 frugal dudes podcast about meet up groups, so I'm happy that one in Canberra exists.

I hope to see you in the near future, cheers, Adam.

Hi everyone. I’m also new to this forum. My wife and I have been madly reading everything mustachion for about 4 months now and slowly been developing our frugality muscle along with a healthy attitude of badassity. We live in Canberra and would like to meetup with others travelling the mustachion journey.

Just letting everyone interested in Canberra meetups that the Choose FI'ers are having one this weekend outside the Capital Brewing Co Brewery on Sunday 20 Oct 19 between 2:30pm and 4:30pm and have extended the invitation to our group. Looks like they have 5 going already. I've got family visiting this weekend so I'll probably be a no show.

Just saw on Facebook there will be a free screening of the Playing with FIRE documentary on Wed 4 Dec 19 from 6-9pm at the Boiler House Lecture Theatre at the University of Canberra in Civic.

See https://events.humanitix.com.au/playing-with-fire-canberra-community-screening for more details and how to book.

Thanks for posting. Unfortunately I'm booked up that day, otherwise would have considered going just to mingle with the crowd. I've already seen it, so I'm not too sad about missing the film.

That's a shame. I'm planning on going so it would have been good to catch up!
