Stirlo, you need to be more specific....
What are you after ?? Ladies, Men, Bingo, Trivia nights, Gardening clubs, Turkish Steam Baths, Nightclubs, RSL Clubs, Drugs, The Buffalos or Freemasons, Tattoos, Train Surfing or are you just homesick ???....

Haha, well... Just what there is around here. For the night, good clubs and pubs. Long way to go into the city. For the day... err, places to check out, beaches, sights. Like the knox, I actually saw that on friday night very cool looking place will be back there.

When you want to burn up your Sunday how would you go about it when you don't want to stay home for example.

I'm also using this to figure out if I'm one of the youngest active members on AULRO!

There is a good pub just out of Belgrave which is great on a sunday arvo. They normaly have some form of live music there too. It was all updated around a year ago, they do pretty decent pub food too.

Knox is not to bad on the weekends, but can be a bit rough sometimes.

The middle hotel in Ferntree Gully is quite good and has some decent live music too. Food is okay there. There is all so a pool joint just up the road which is quite busy on the weekends.

Cheers Siska! Thanks for the info!

The Macawber? Great place, Thursday night $11 Schitzel night!

Unfortunately mate, you're in solid family with 2 kids, or middle age corporates territory there. They're all in bed by 10 pm.
Most social activity in the outer burbs for younger persons seems to centre around sports clubs or churches !

That's the place, I couldn't think of the name of it last night.

Also Ruby's in Belgrave is good on a sunday arvo, good live music, nice atmosphere and plenty of drinks.

Mind you, after 8 pints of Guinness, anything in a dress tends to look pretty cute.

OH my I've had some blinders there.

If you know anyone from the uni - go.
Sometimes it's a fizzer but normally its pretty wild.
