Cairns ATC Xmas Party - November 30.

For all those in Cairns or that can make it here, the Annual ATC Xmas Party will be held on the 30th November, from 1730 at the North Queensland Aero Club.

As per previous years we will be providing beer (six kegs), wine and soft drinks.

The NQAC will be running a sausage sizzle as a fund raiser, and we will be running raffles to help fund the night, so please bring some gold coins to give us!!

Hope to see you all there!

If this year's Cairns ATC Party is anything like previous ATC parties, I urge caution - and a taxi home!!

Ditto the Cairns Firies brain cell carnage events!

I could say bug off green eye, but please; come and join us. It is a wonderful bash. No where else 'cept Moreton Bay or DRW in the early daze.

Cairns has been rather quiet since the days of The Panel, the Fox & Firkin, Jazzi etc!

Reddo. How's Junior these days?

Best night of the year, esp when we had our hangar party beforehand on the same night

Have a good one, I'll make it for next year.

Cheers from the Irishman

Folks, one week to go!

The kegs are the cool room at the Red Hat.

The Aero Club will have roast meat rolls for sale.

The bubbly is on ice.

Hope to see you all there.
