So to sum it up;

What I told all of you!
When they hear about foreigners they start to ask: minimum charge, service charge, taxes... so the sum could reach up, so in this case, I don t know how many of us could join!
I wish all of you good luck in the meeting!

suzana

hello valibilic ;

lots of sp/ places here ask for minimum charge thats why i recommended deals & pup 28 there"s no mini/charge and its full of forigners

suzana

whedy

i think you choose the place and an Egyptian person make a deal with the manager of the place that will be a big group and dun tell him the group consist of expats
But you have to choose the time and the place before talking to the manager

dovaro

is it confirmed lepacha friday 1st of october ?

IrishAlexandrian

no dovaro, it's Sequoia, Friday 1st of October at 8pm.
Suzana is organizing another outing for next week.

suzana

hello everybody;

i wasn"t - and not now - organizing another outing , i thought that social mixer means that all members could participate with thier ideas, places ,budget etc ,as i am not one man show by nature, and
i think it was clear that i am participating in the same event.
so please i don"t want anybody to speake for me and when i want to
organize an event i will announce"t and do"t.

have a nice day

suzana

dovaro

Okay guys see you tomorrow at 8 in Sequoia
how we are going to know each others ? any plans

IrishAlexandrian

@ Dovaro, the reservation is in my name 'Nadia El Abdin'.
They will take you to the table, so you will be led to the right place. I will do my very best to be there just before 8pm.

@ Suzana, I'm sorry I didn't mean to imply anything and I won't presume anything in the future. Please accept my humble apology.

dovaro

um what about the bad weather (there is a sandstorm) are you sure want to go in this weather? maybe a closed door place would be a good idea?

IrishAlexandrian

dovaro...the sandstorm has passed. It was just passing through.
Sandstorm season is April/May!

suzana

hello irish ;

thank you for your decente respond and wish you a loevely evining .
