Ten say they'll come, five show up then all at random times, it's a bit like herding kittens.
That's why we don't need a bigger table, the likelihood of there being more than 8 at one time is small.
I'm not too stressed about the venue. They're pretty cool. I've previously been there, whole huge table to myself, and just hung out (air-con/wifi) for a few hours, slowly perusing and enjoying their beer menu. By the time we get in there, and get going, they're not going to have a later booking on that table.
Anyway, it's like a slightly smarter pub. Order food as and when you like. Personally it's the bratwurst and mash and gravy that does it for me... but hey ho.
--- The thinking is it's nice to pitch just a little higher than the tourist-trash Quays, just for once. It's ok, really, next time Boat Quay.... everyone can randomly show up or not, no expectations if that other party is better, and so on.
--- Actually if some masochist wishes to volunteer to coordinate the next one... how about a venue, non-trashy since we're hi-klassy expats here lol? Convenient for MRT. Has quality food, and good beer (i.e. a range of imports). Indoor and outdoor space. Air-con. Central. Can reserve but they won't care if you show up 3hrs late. Suggestions on a postcard.
