    Hey guys!

    The next Melbourne Monthly Meetup is scheduled for:

    Sunday 8th July 2012 - 12.00noon to 4.00pm.

    One member on here has kindly donated the full private
    use of his restaurant for this event.

    In return we would like to make it a win-win situation to
    reward his kindness by making it a special Silver Stacker lunch
    event at the meetup.

    The next Melbourne Silver Stacker event will involve a lunch special
    with a range of Fine Dining Indian foods and full private use of his
    whole restaurant for our event.

    (plenty of parking around)

    A private message will be sent to those showing interest and those
    that have attended before with the exact location details closer to
    the event date.


    These meetups are the perfect opportunity to learn from experienced
    fellow stackers. Get to meet and talk to like minded people and get to
    know your local Melbourne Silver Stacker community. Not to mention it's a
    perfect opportunity to pick up a bargain.

    Feel free to bring anything to buy, sell, swap or trade.

    The next meetup shall include:
    Special Lunch Event - Starting at 12 noon.
    Meet and greet - Catch up or get to know fellow stackers both new and old.

    This is a special lunch event! Please save your stomaches for lunch and be on time.

    Once the Private Messages are sent out, Please let me know if you are attending or not
    as I have to book specific numbers for the restaurant lunch event.

    I am sure that some of us could make special arrangements to meet up with you for coffee (at your expense off course :) ). Advise dates etc if you are so inclined.

    1 oz of silver... good idea! Makes it easier to count and collect.

    I'll see if the owner of the venue accepts silver as payment.

    Not sure if his staff will though? He does have to pay his staff for the day.

    Yep. Will go with majority on food options, not fussed either way.

    Will bring the mystery bag, with mystery item inside.
    Will bring some items for auction.

    South Gippsland Bullion will sponsor the AUGUST ss meeting, will speak about that and sort out the details with Adrenalin.

    The ANDA Melbourne Coin, Banknote and Stamp Show is on again at the Caulfield Racecourse, Caulfield on 7th and 8th July 2012.


    The coin show is on both Saturday and Sunday.

    Most of the good stuff will be gone on the Saturday.

    Just make sure if you are wanting to go to the coin show to go on the Saturday. :)
