My name is Abdo
Thank you


Are you in Oman Abdo? Coz if you are outside Oman, there is no point to join the watsapp group as it  is meant for meet ups discussion. So pls advise if you are in Muscat.
Thanks.

@Mumtaz
Thanks for taking the initiative.
Lets decide which venue, would be interesting to be in a different location.

MumtazKhan

What are we looking at; shisha place or we can make it a food trip or a movie trip or a coffee trip. First let us finalise the venue; as we don't have much time left. Cut off date for finalising a venue should be Monday (June 1st). So, then we can start informing/confirming participants where to come and who can do car pooling, etc. So, here are recommendations (open for debate):

Shisha Trip: Al-Makan, behind Intercontinental Hotel or Shakespeare at the Waves
Food Trip:    The Great Kabab Factory
Coffee Trip:  Any Coffee Shop at The Waves (as we can get lots of space to sit and people are there but not too many)
Movie:         We can watch the movie "SPY" just a suggestion.

MumtazKhan

Asya Khalid, Chris, Navnad, make sure all of you are on board. Please confirm and share your advices.

As discussed today in watsapp conferencing, venue will be Al Makan Cafe in Lovers Lane.
Lets decide on the timing asap.

MumtazKhan

Dear All:
     What about 06:30 p.m. so, we can find a place to sit inside; as this is not a very huge setup, and it will be Friday; so, it is better to get there as soon as we can and grab seats for ourselves. :-) Once, we have finalized the number of people, I can try to make reservations there also. If they accept reservations. I will give it a shot.

Dear Garyberg:
      If you are in Oman; please send your number to Hexbela; so, she can add you into the whatsapp group. The next get together is still not decided; but most likely it will on next weekend. Once you are in the whatsapp group; we all throw in our ideas and eventually it all comes together as a good plan. So, hope to see you in the group and then eventually at the meet. :-)

Regards,
Mumtaz
