Time is upon us again and due to popular demand, this month our monthly meet-up is back at the Seven Stars Hotel, 187 Angas Street (just up from the corner of Frome Rd.)
Tuesday January 5th.

Menu can be found here: Seven Stars Menu

Come along and once more meet some ACG celebrities and the rest of us regular costuming types.
See photos from past events and chat about upcoming events and all sorts of costumy-goodness.

Official start time as normal is 6.30pm although many arrive at around 6.00.

"popular demand"??? I can buy that. It was a pretty cool place and the prices were great!

I'll be there. Look for the gook suit!

Oh groovy, their schnitzel's were quite nice.

Well, I wouldn't miss it for the world... unless the world paid me to attend whatever it had going on... that would be nice...

Go ahead, make my coffee.

Now I know what you're thinking - "does he want two sugars or only one?" Well to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I've kind of lost track myself.
But being that I don't like my coffee too strong or too sweet, you’ve got to ask yourself one question – "do you feel lucky" – well do you, punk?

Would love to, but a friend I used to work with is back from o/s and will likely be out to dinner with her and others...at a pub down the road!

Might swing by after...
