Second Belgian GTG

I really enjoyed the first time we got together & seeing as most of us already have new toys, we should start planning our next meeting, imo!

Ideas for a place/date are welcome!

Bernard, I agree. It's time to plan a "Spring" Belgian GTG !
What about a Friday evening or Saterday afternoon/evening?
Some dates: Friday 14 March, Saterday 15 March, Friday 21 March, Saterday 22 March in Ghent !

I can do the 13th of March. Evening drinks/dinner.

But no watchshopping then! Otherwise I would have asked 1 or 2 AD if they could have us to have a look around.

Guys the weekends seem to be difficult for several.
Could we agree for drinks/dinner the evening of Thursday 13th of March?

Frederic, that would be marvellous indeed, if you could join us in Ghent.

Sadly again no Baselworld for me this year, I definitely would enjoy it, but it's always the wrong period of the year for me. One day I will see it (I hope)

Marvellous you can join in Christophe.

I suggest we'll meet up at the Opera Café at 19h.
That's located in the Opera House (the entrance is at the corner of the street, opposite the Palace of Justice). Easy parking in the underground carpark of the Kouter)
Options for dinner still open

Bernard if you're earlier in Ghent. I stop working at 17h, so can meet you soon after that...

Hey guys, I should be able to make it! What place will we meet at? You guys bring all your pieces? As I'm not too fond of bringing them all due to safety reasons which I'm sure you guys understand!
