[4animals] Re: KFC demo

[Kyle den Bak]

Hey,

	Sounds good. Just a quick check, is there anyone who knows the exact 
address of the Glebe location so that I can get some posters printed 
off? This week and the next are very busy for me. I am helping my 
girlfriend move, and I have visitors from out of town. I will start 
placing the posters late next week. An evening the weekend of the 7th 
is a great time to get  together for me, and I have no objections to 
the green door, seeing as I live right next door.

Cheers,
Kyle
