TYPE-IN, Breakfast Creek Pub, Brisbane, Sunday, March 10, 2pm


C'mon Queenslander!
Write with this Maroon Portable
BRING A TYPEWRITER and JOIN IN
(Or if you want to take part and don't have a typewriter, 
let Scott Kernaghan at The Filthy Platen or myself know
and we can supply one)
IN THE MUSEUM ROOM
OF BRISBANE'S WORLD FAMOUS
124-YEAR-OLD
BREAKFAST CREEK PUB
Where typewriters once made the rafters ring!
And will do so once more ... on 
SUNDAY,MARCH 10, 2pm
AUSTRALIA'S FIRST-EVER TYPE-IN
What's that you say? A Type-In!
I'd trudge 50 flamin' miles for a Type-In!
(To a pub that's got beer)
But what'll I wear to the Type-In?
Crikey! They're havin' a Type-In
at the Brekky Creek!
I'm GOING to the Type-In, and that's that!

  2. What a wonderful building!

    I didn't know that Queensland had its own counterpart to The New Yorker. There were also The Brooklynite, The Chicagoan, and others.

  3. Oh how I'm jealous, I'd love to go to a type-in, not sure of any near where I live, and due to my age, 16, and lack of drivers license, I'd never be able to make it.
