Hey everyone!
I was inspired to organise a social event for next month, and this is what I came up with:
<?php
$group1 = "phpMelb";
$group2 = "Melbourne Drupal";
$idea = "A combined $group1 & $group2 bowling meetup!";
echo $idea;
?>I am thinking around Saturday 5th of December, before people start going on holidays and so on. We can meet at the bowling alley at the top of Melbourne Central, next to the Lion and also near the Hoyts ticket office. We'll get some pizzas there while we play, say, 2 games each, and then we can go the Lion for a few beers afterwards.
