Activities in the South Eastern suburbs

This is a coffee meetup for creative people to share/talk about their current projects. Whether it's writing, a website, art, starting a business, knitting/crafts or anything at all creative (be creative with the descriptor 'creative'), come along and share your progress with other like-minded people.
This cafe requires a credit card for booking so I'm just going to show up and grab a table. I'll be waiting out the front of Caffe Greco at 1pm.

Ridge Walk - start Menzies Creek - 13 km
I am leading a walk with a walking group and thought I would post it here to see if anyone wants to join us.

📍 Meeting Point
Meet at the car park on left when turning onto Grantulla Rd from C412 from Selby direction.
(the car park is opposite Hancock's Daffodils).

Start time: 10am (please arrive a little earlier so we are ready to go on time).
🥾 About This Walk
The walk starts with a steep ascent on a quiet road to Ridge Rd.
At the top we will walk along the ridge and , if it is a clear day, we will have great views.
We will then descend on a dirt path before following paths and quiet roads back to Menzies Creek.
Emerald and Belgrave are nearby towns well worth a visit if you want to extend your stay in the hills and maybe have a meal, etc.
Everyone is welcome — whether you’re building fitness, seeking community, or simply wanting a peaceful moment outdoors.
📏 Distance & Difficulty
Distance: 13 km
Grade: 3
Difficulty: Moderate (with some steep ascent and descent)

🎒 What to Bring
Water, snacks, weather‑appropriate clothing, comfortable shoes, sunscreen/hat, and any personal items you need.

🌦 Weather & Safety
We hike in all conditions unless they become unsafe. If strong winds, storms, extreme heat, or track closures arise, we may adjust or postpone the walk.
⚠️ Safety Disclaimer
This is a social, community‑led outing, not a guided or professionally supervised activity. By attending, you accept responsibility for your own safety and wellbeing.
The route may include uneven ground, water crossings, and natural hazards. Please consider your fitness and bring suitable gear.

🌟 We Look Forward to Sharing This Adventure With You

I have Dixit (which is for 3-6 individual players), Scrabble, and Settlers of Catan. I might go to the op shop and find a copy of Cluedo as I haven't played it before. Please feel free to bring some boardgames along if you have some you'd like to play. We can discuss it in the comment thread.

** Regarding numbers... I really feel it's best to split up and play different games if we have a larger number of people than the current game accomodates. I can try to find some boardgames that are for teams. If you have any please bring them.

Nearby Thai Rose restaurant purportedly has a 30% discount on Mondays, though I haven't been there...
