Confirmed that I have to attend a meeting at 7pm at Sports Hub.

It shouldnt be more than 90 mins I think , its for the DBS/SEA Games Dragon Boat Regatta so I can't really not attend.

Hopefully there for 9pm.

Will text when I am on my way so someone can set up a dunkel for me :D

Well, at least you have two things firmed up for the next one:

1. It will be two months later like always.
2. The forum's resident squirrel will be in charge.
3. And as you announced elsewhere that you currently living in a spacious walk-in apartment, squirrel may just consider organizing the next gathering right there.
:oops: shouldn't divulge too many details i suppose.
To get there early is on time and showing up on time is late

Unless they kick us out or not let us in, or something goes really bad beer/food-wise I don't expect we leave the place before it closes.

Sounds about right! I'm enroute to the AMK MRT so probably 30 minutes out.

That was fun and glad I went, only regret not being able to get there earlier and get more time with every one, that zzm spaced out and forgot, and RITM and others couldn't make it.

Was good meeting the new people. Looking forward to the next one.

Still crack up thinking about Lynx's BF comment.

Was great seeing a couple new long time members of the board there as well. Collectively a great bunch of people. Thanks for making it another successful gathering of eagles. ;-)

Thanks for the invite and for arranging this.
It was fun and it was great to meet you all.
Now I can associate faces to the "names.

Any surprises between faces and 'names'? I know I always seem to form a mental picture of posters that rarely coincides with them in real life. I do get a feeling of the stability of people though hence our penchant of making sure our new invites have been around a while as it gives us some intuition of a persons character. Glad you finally made it and bdg back after a long time!

Had no expectations, other than the fact that you mentioned something about you being "a bearded skinhead" about a year ago, so that was no surprise.

Sorry I had to leave "early."
What time did you finally head home?
