The Weather: As you are aware, our dinner is for Antarctic heroes and their guests. So no whingeing about the weather...
Just accept that it is Midwinters, it's going to be cold and dark, maybe with a touch of snow on the local mountain, and you will be fine. And remember, it will be no-where as cold as the real thing, Macca included!
Some advice for the mainlanders: Bring a warm jumper or polartec, maybe some gloves, beanie and a scarf. Ladies -we suggest a colorful neck warmer on your head rather than a beanie -tres Hobart and tres chic! And a set  of body shaping long johns are always wise, unless under a very short skirt where they just look odd.  

If you forget, are underprepared,  (or are just plain silly) ring Ingrid or Michael (0402 677 483 or 0408 007 640). We have a large box of spare cold weather gear we can loan at short notice...
