Great!
I'm also going to the cig shop in Belgium on the way back. Will post more details soon...

can it be a gin-and-tonic-fest also ? I read once that port was 'discovered' in the Netherlands, after bringing back wine from Portugal and it upped its strength on the voyage. is that true ?

date = weekend of the 19th March. time = all day festivities...

Hmm. I need to be in London on the 9th, 10th, 17th & 20th of March. Which leaves a gap of exactly the right time-frame. Unfortunately I also need to have the car in London. If I can figure out a way of getting the bike there too (somehow driving the car to Rotterdam would be infinitely less fun) then I'll join you!

Laura

Good work Laura!

sounds like a plan
 

I've put the date in my agenda, I'll try to drop in and pick all your resourceful brains to get my ass off the couch and make a first big trip!

obviously, if you don't get the motorbike there you could take a Boris bike for a long weekend away (use someone else credit card to pay for it though!). or, the third muskateer might not be motorbiking due to a gammy knee, so I suspect there may be some sort of train and ferry action.

Well the work on 17th & 20th has now been taken away from me :censored:, which potentially gets rid of the car/bike/London scenario, but unfortunately also gets rid of the cash to pay for exotic beer and, more expensively, fuel to get there :(

So I will have to pass

Have fun!

Laura

Would be nice to be there...
 

Hi guys,

it would be very nice to be with you... but I am pretty busy working right now... and with my little son Pablo(15 months) I have to work at home too.

But anyway - I wish you a great weekend!!!

Maybe you can join us at the HU Germany Meeting in June?

Try the Grand Central hotel just round the corner - it's on the map above!

Hey Fellows,

I like to join you as well, only I would not make it before early evening.
How do I recognize you ??

Richard

Good question Richard. I look like this (except I'll be drinking beer so I'll be smiling):

I've never seen you looking like that after you've been drinking !

it's highly likely that I'll have a white/blue checked short-sleeve shirt on.

cheers

...and a dress heh heh heh

I'm on the bicycle, so travelling very light. no dress this time, just a skirt :-)

Haha and this is me, drinking wine :laugh:
