AWF - Christmas meal

Unfortunately it is a bit far for me to come but I certainly hope the table will be properly normalized.;)
 
Awesome Tony ! I will text you in a bit ! See you all tomorrow ! :D
 
Great to have met Tony and Chris in the Christmas meal. Great Spanish food, knowledge exchange. It was fun ! Hoping to do this again sometime soon ! :D
 
From down under to up there is a bit much to organise. It is good that you guys did get together and had a good time.

We Aussies will just have to be satisfied with making a meal of the pommy cricket team.

It is nice to have the little mug back where it belongs.

Merry Christmas to you all.

I sure had a good time. It was good to see some faces than profile names for once. :D

Merry Christmas to you too Des ! :)

Keep up the good work.

Regards Des

Hi Paul, glad it was such a success. Really sorry that I couldn't make it on that day. Hopefully there will be something similar that I can attend in the future.

Hello Bob, it would have been great if you would have joined us. It's alright, its understandable that you were busy.

We were talking about doing something for Easter Bank holiday somewhere in London, so we can attract a large crowd and also gives a bit of time to sink in. Thoughts/Comments welcome :)
 
I also thoroughly enjoyed the time - agree it could have gone on for much longer, the conversation didn't stop!

It was great to be able to put faces to names and compare real life experiences and I look forward to the next meeting - hopefully around the end of March.
 
I am so glad to have met you. Now I know its way too early, but I just created a Doodle, so that we can get a rough head count/ preferred times and stuff.. Looking forward to this ! :D
 
It sounds like the 3 of you had a great time... perhaps you should have got a room :p

It has been a while since I have used Access as my current company doesn't allow it, and I have been with them 6 years now, so alas my discussions on Access would be very much outdated with yours, but if you do have a meeting up in Birmingham I would gladly come and have a chat with you and perhaps discuss the goold ole days of this forum amongst other things...

Just to get it straight out front though now, I WILL NOT be getting a room... ;)
 
So...is there going to be another? Have Ryan Air, will travel...
 
Due to family commitments I know I will not be there for any UK gathering. Among other things, I've got a grandson to sometimes watch and need a LOT of lead time to get a passport set up.

However, regardless of any holiday, if someone happens to KNOW they are visiting New Orleans, Louisiana, send me a PM through the forum (because it links to my regular e-mail) and I will be happy to meet you.

As a retired man, I would even be available for a home-grown tour of at least a few places. Depending on matters too complex to enumerate, my dear wife might also enjoy a visit from someone I met through the forum.
 
I'm happy to organise something based around London. Usually it is just a social - pub/meal/good conversation. But nearer Christmas, there is perhaps time to organise something educational around Access, but would involve a cost - would need to hire a venue, pay speaker expenses and the like which would require an upfront financial commitment from delegates and a certain minimum number thereof.

So, opening this up to all forum members:

1. I'm thinking around London, but are there other locations of interest?

2. Would you prefer a social or an educational seminar?

3. If the latter, what sort of topics would be of interest?

4. If the latter, what level should these be pitched - novice/intermediate/expert?

5. If the latter, what would you be prepared to pay as a budget (depending on numbers and quality of speakers I'm thinking probably in the region of £70-£120 for a day (morning/lunch/afternoon)

I'm going to the event in Vienna at the beginning of April http://www.donkarl.com/devcon/ - is anyone else going? If so, please PM me - would be good to meet up
 
London would be perfect, Ryan Air flies direct from Naples so that would be ideal. As far as the rest, I am up for either whether it's an actual Access oriented seminar or just a reason to get some fish and chips and wash it down with either a Guinness or Strongbow...

Would be great to meet the people who make this forum the awesome thing it is...

Missy and I are considering Mardi Gras in the not too distant future, rest assured we will be calling. If I bring the wine, you can make gumbo?
 
Gent, just watch out because Mardi Gras is a LUNAR holiday. Make your plans with a calendar that shows Ash Wednesday (which is always the day after Fat Tuesday, or in French, Mardi Gras.)
 
So CJL...how was Vienna?
