Well, TerryM+1 could have been a possibilty but he has already mentioned being busy all week.

This is not exactly a hidden thread, so hopefully some more A'dammers have read it.

Perhaps they're waiting for reports from the first IM Adam meetup... to know if I bite.

(well I do) hehe

I've sent my contact info in PM to you.

And hey, what can I do for today in A'dam? (It being Diwali)?

Anytime in the weekends would be great.

(Desprerately trying to hide my self-interest... <chuckle> <chuckle> ).

I have never had the pleasure to attend an IM meetup , so what goes on at these meetings what should I expect?

Its going to be my first as well, but I think its a safe thing to do... like jumping out of running buses or getting overloaded on spacecakes.
(To be honest, I dont have a clue.)

Ehm yes I'd figured us being in touch would suffice

Good question. Beats me. Avoid the rain.

It'll be my first too. I imagine we get stonkered to whatever extent we deem socially acceptable, then I could think of some possible easy side-trips depending on our mood and provided we haven't had enough of each other yet. (A stroll around town; a Surinamese roti; maybe a canal boat trip.)

See ya then fellows.

Yup, let's stick to Soundgarden 15:30 for now. We can move on at will at a later hour, it doesn't look like there'll be mass attendance so far.

They have a (severely outdated & underdeveloped) webbie thing for directions btw: http://home.planet.nl/~nijbo143/soundgarden/

Looking forward to it guys ('n' gals).

edit: too bad Terry!

Next time!

cyberhippie · Nov 3rd, 2005, 23:28

Hey guys I've been pondering all week but moneys too tight to mention and unemployment isn't helping so with regret I'll have to give this one a miss!!

cyberhippie · Nov 3rd, 2005, 23:39

Ok after a bit of cyber arm twisting by Mach I'm reconsidering I'll let you know tomorrow!!

CH: If n when you reach there take a walk around the seating area, talk to the ugliest looking (Indian) man, I will say hi to you.

I've just sent some contact info in PM.

machadinha · Nov 5th, 2005, 09:18

Cool guys

All things considered & with a view to other such meetups this one was easily arranged wasn't it? Now let's just hope I don't oversleep & miss the whole thing.

I'll be unlikely to log in until then so -- till then. A'dam will never be the same again.

cyberhippie · Nov 6th, 2005, 17:48

Just bumping this up in case there are any other IMers in A'dam at a loose end. Please feel free to join us at the Soundgarden from 15.30 onwards!!
