DIY Wotz on guide for the weekend of 11 November 2011

A bit of a drive but the Fleet Air Arm Museum at Nowra is having a Flying day

Sunchaser and the wayward orchestra @ the maram Saturday night!

Summer Lounge Sessions @ Bicicletta this Saturday in the New Acton Courtyard.
DJ Ashley Feraude will kick off this first of many great Summer events, music from 8pm-11pm. The kitchen will be open as normal until 10pm, but the pizza menu will be available until 11pm.

Saturday – Shannons Safari Rally

Sunday – Marques in the Park, Belconnen

Canberra is playing Melbourne in the W-League at McKellar Park this Saturday at 3pm. Canberra has won all three of its matches so far and are the ladder leaders with nine points, while Melbourne had the bye last weekend, and are sitting on four points. A victory to Canberra retains both the unbeaten run and top place, while a loss for Melbourne threatens their finals chances.

Saturday night at The Phoenix Bar:

Free Live Music Featuring:

RJ Chops (Sydney),
The Flat Earth Confederacy.

Music starts at 9pm
Entry is free.

French Delight at the new Peninsula Bar (National Museum) Also looks intriguing tomorrow night:
