Last night, I went out for dinner in order to celebrate my birthday. I'm old now. I've aged a bit more. Turns out some of my IRL friends are Steemians. We had a good time discussing things ranging from crypto to me taunting the wait staff with awful jokes.
The entire evening could have been paid for in a single ethereum, instead we paid with fiat as the venue did not accept crypto of any sort. Maybe in a year's time, this will change. In a years time, we won't return to the same venue due to the poor quality food.
That doesn't matter, what did was the fact that we had the most Steemians ever gathered (that we know about) in Adelaide, South Australia. This group will only grow. Are you in Adelaide, interested in a Steemit meet up? Let me, or @mattclarke know, and we'll talk!
Technically, there was six Steemians present, however one left early, before we captured this image, an absolute marvel of handsomeness. Had @gamblor not left early, this picture would have been 1000 times better.
I know @nerdfury was underwhelmed with his rack of lamb; but my trio of curries was lovely.
Thanks for the bottle of wine, it was great fun :)
How fun! Although I only "know" you and @mattclarke, it looks like a great group!
Unfortunately, no crumpets were on the menu. :)
Dang it.
This is awesome! More of this needs to happy :) Hopefully soon we can have it be more common! Too bad about the restaurant only accepting paper... that's such a nuisance ;)
Have a great weekend!

We won't go back there, even if they do accept crypto in future. Their 'vegan' samosas were served on a bed of yogurt based sauce. Classy :P (Two of my friends are Vegan who attended)
The curries were nice, the rest of the food was underwhelming, but the company, conversation, and people who were present were all that mattered.
You know the word "vegan" gets thrown around as a catch phrase, a buzz word. As a vegan, I constantly find myself in situations with butter and milk without it even saying so on the menu. I only eat out when I am traveling and always am strict about letting them know if possible. I'll be sure to cut that restaurant out of my visit if it ever happens ;) I once fell in love with a boy from Adelaide because of him I think the people there are pretty great ;)
Have a wonderful weekend!

On ya lads:) not sure how many are here in Bathurst yet :)
I'll be back in Adelaide for 6-8 weeks in about 10 days time. From there many moons ago
What brings you back? Work or fun?
family. have to look after a house and dog while Mum's on holidays
You'll be here for the street of Spring then. Royal show etc.
Nice.
Hi @holoz0r, that is so awesome! and yes, a stunning display of handsomeness. There will be a day when you're the oddball if you're NOT a Steemian!
Did you give the guys a spin in the Steemitmobile?
MEETUPS MUST BE SCHEDULED WORLDWIDE ;)
Lol steemit board at the back of the car. :-) your car looks more nice now.
Car handsomeness +10,000 due to plate.
Yo, that licence plate never gets old. I always enjoy taking a look at it.
Proud of you guys getting togheter. This proves the fact that we are a COMMUNITY!
C'mon Steemit!
Hopefully next year the picture will expand to even more Steemians!
I just say again and again - what a wonderful community is Steemit - feels like this platform is bringing the world together
Nice to see some fellow RAdelaide crew on steem - hope the up and down weather held off for you while ya'll were out and about. I will certainly be keeping an eye out for that ripper number plate!

Happie birthday and that's awesome
I still maintain we ought to have set up the lights and made a professional shoot out of the situation, but it was cold, rainy, and I was eager to get home so I could get something more substantial than my shitty lamb in my belly! What a great shot of handsome lads!
