We've been tagged, ladies! M at Easternmax has tagged us to complete the "8 random things about me" meme. So - thinking hats on - leave your suggestions for our random facts in the comments and I'll create a final eight post.
8 random things about No.1 Melbourne Ladies' Bookclub
I'll kick it off...
1. Our bookclub started in 1999 when five friends all invited a (non-mutual) friend each to form a bookclub where we would read a book each month, then meet and discuss it.
2. Since then, through natural attrition, demands of work or family, interstate moves and/or lack of interest (surely not!) we've had a bit of changeover of membership. At last count, we've had 24 active members in total, with five of the original 11 still current members.
Now it's over to you... (and yes, remote/lapsed/former members are able to post suggestions!)

About Us
We are a group of Melbourne women who meet once a month to discuss a book chosen by one of our members. We talk about the book, we rate it (out of 10) and then we get side-tracked onto other stuff. Oh, and we laugh. A lot.

Not finishing the book , even if it is your own choice, never stopped any of us from attending and joining in the discussion.
Sounds like out book club.
You've got to count how many births we've had. Fairly prolific club I'd say.
Thanks for comments so far... Another I'll throw into the mix:
The host member provides the evening's refreshments...and thus we have experienced such gourmet delights as Greek Easter biscuits (at Domestic Goddess's place), licorice bullets at Kensington's and the world's best cheeses at JM's.
At TeamSAK's however we have been limited to the output of the local cake shop and bakery. Although the wine list is always top notch!
Can't wait for all the comments at Fairlie's house Tuesday night. It will be the best 'blogs in the city' episode for a long time! ps. team sak,why are you on the computer at 3.00am?
