Sounds good! I'm not sure I'll make it but will try. I get back from WikiCon late the night before. Sam Wilson 00:33, 25 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Bjenks, Dan arndt, Evad37, Gnangarra, Mitch Ames, Samwilson, AtticEdit, Ridiculopathy, Dwertyorga, and MavropaliasG: The May meetup will be held at the Rose & Crown Hotel, Guildford, on Sunday, 24 May.

can do lunch or later if you want Gnan garra 10:26, 3 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I've set the starting time at midday. See you there. Bahnfrend (talk) 13:50, 6 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Bahnfrend probably wise to book a table for 6 people. Gnan garra 03:09, 7 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I will be in Canberra that weekend - so put me down as an apology. Dan arndt (talk) 05:26, 11 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I'm away for this month, but next month will come. Sam Wilson 06:47, 19 May 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Meetup 96

@Bahnfrend, Bjenks, Dan arndt, Evad37, Gnangarra, Mitch Ames, Samwilson, AtticEdit, Ridiculopathy, and MavropaliasG: as we zero in on meetup #100, which in a perfect world will occur on 1st February 2027, marking exactly 20 years to the day of Perth meetups. We need to get 96, 97, 98 99 in beforehand. This is what I'm thinking;

96 - 11/12 July, or 1/2 August either side of Wikimania
97 - 19 September, syncs with the day after ALIA conference
97 - mid October
99 - Late November
100 - Monday 1 February 2027 evening drinks at the Brass Monkey

Any and all thoughts on this suggestion including venues and timing are requested. Gnan garra 10:14, 4 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good to me. After Wikimania might be preferable, as Gnangarra would then be able to tell us all about it. As I've already discussed with Gnangarra, I suggest that 96 be at the newly opened Dave & Busters sports bar in Clarkson (not a long walk from Clarkson station) - it's the first of a large chain of American sports bars to be opened in Australia, so at least some Commons photos of it would be good. Its website is here. Bahnfrend (talk) 14:04, 4 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Would have to be closer to 6pm evening on the 1st August as I have umpiring commitments on both days it'll be difficult to reach Clarkson at any other time. Gnan garra 10:23, 9 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I'm overseas on 11/12 July but will be back by 1 August. Sailing season doesn't start until September - so should be able to make 96. Dan arndt (talk) 11:19, 9 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Those dates sound good to me. I like the 100th coinciding with 20 years! Sam Wilson 02:21, 21 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
