Pics from Hamilton Propertytalk.com Meet August 2006

[SuperDad]

Hi all,

I am organising a PropertyTalk get-together in Hamilton on Thursday August 10th. Donna and Marc will be in town that evening, so I thought it would be a good opportunity to meet "Mum and Dad" as well as each other.

The plan will be to meet somewhere for drinks and dinner, from (say) 6pm. (I'll firm up the time later.) I will organise the venue, but will need numbers for a booking. I will aim to find somewhere that is: 1. Reasonably priced; 2. Has a vegetarian selection (that is not just a salad); 3. Is BYO wine (because I'm cheap); and 4. Can accomodate a large group at a single table. (If anyone has any suggestions of such a venue, please let me know.)

It so happens that Dean Leftus is talking to the Waikato PIA on Wednesday August 9th. For those of you who are unable to make in on Thursday 10th, there will be an opportunity to meet each other before Dean talks. I am yet to hear back from Dean, but he might be able to join us. However, I expect that he may well have a prior engagement with the WPIA committee, but we'll see. If you are not a member of the WPIA, and have not seen Dean talk, I can highly recommend him. (I travelled to Rotorua a few months ago to see Dean talk, and it was well worth it.) The WPIA charges a $20 door fee for non-members - a bargain at twice the price.

So, please let me know if you are able to make it on Thursday August 10th. Also, if you have any venue suggestions, let rip.

Regards,

Paul Flood.

Hi all,

Dean Leftus has just confirmed that he has a prior invitation for dinner on the Wednesday evening, which I thought might be the case. I would still like to meet PT members before Dean's talk. We could meet from 6pm onwards, at the bar at the Kingsgate conference center.

There is no need to book for the Wednesday evening - just rock up.

Paul.

[SuperDad]

Neo,

Great! Good luck on the babysitter front, and I look forward to meeting you.

Paul.

Hey SuperDad

Love to catch up.
Baby is due in August hopefully doesn't arrive on that day .
See you at the WPIA meeting.

[SuperDad]

Brilliant ActionMan!

Best wishes with your child's birth. I love the excitement that comes with an impending baby - if you make it along next month, remind me to tell you about the fun and games we had with our most recent addition (gas leak, firemen, false labour - all the elements of a good story).

Paul.

Paul.

Not sure if I can make it yet Paul, have friends coming over from the states that day but they may have moved on by the evening but if they do decide to spend the evening in Hamilton I will have to be with them so cant confirm yet, still I will know where it is by then so I guess I can just rock up on the night, I think they do plan to move on for the evening, they arrive in at 5.15am or something like that so will probably by tired by the evening as they are not seasoned travlers.
I could always suggest to them coming along of course.
Good luck with the dinner anyway.
Robyn

[SuperDad]

Thanks Robyn.

This will be the first of many, so if you're not there this time there's always the next (that is if you're not in the US putting in an offer on the White House )

Paul.
