Looking forward to meeting you all.

Hi Sandra,

as it happens one of the DPS members just posted a photo for the Weekly Assignment "Streets" (4th image down on page 25) showing the main entrance to Flinders Street Station (intersection of Flinders Street and Swanston Street) that shows the 9 clock faces above the entrance steps. These are the famous "clocks" when we say "Let's meet under the clocks at Flinders Street". This is the image on Flickr:

If 6-7 people hover under the clocks on the top step they would nearly block off half the entry. We can't be missed. To help you, I will stand under the Broadmeadows clock.

Boy, are you going to learn a bit about Melbourne in a short time.
