Guys guys - it's cool! We had a great time, met up with some familiar faces, made a new friend or two.

Iron Horse yes please! But I can't stand up on snow so I'll happily watch you all from Apres Bar

I actually showed up right on time, but since I had no idea on where everyone was sitting, I asked around a few groups if they were Dubai Expat meet, gave me weird looks so I stopped asking, had couple of drinks by myself and left

So sorry I didn't make it - any chance we can make it a Friday evening so I can't get spammed by my boss to work???

Skiing sounds good, however, I wouldn't want to meet new peeps whilst I'm flying down the slopes on my backside!! LOL

How does one make this work? Do we just decide to get together at some place without any binding? Though you certainly dont want to force people in, how do you ensure presence atleast of those who are prompt to accept the invite but fail to appear at the meet? Is there a moderator who drives this?

I'll be the captain for the next night out. It's very casual. A couple of us walked right past the table too, thinking the group might be in the back. But we were rounded up. I believe we arrived a few hours beyond the start time, but B did a fantastic job securing a table for everyone. Others filed in a half hour later and a few popped in and popped out quickly. So time is not strict.

Shall new thread be started for the next go round?
