The Rotterdam GTG!

Very exiting news. I've been arranging a R-GTG over the past month and I've got some very exiting news to report. The number of attendees is really unexpected. I will reveal this number later on, along with a complete list.

This is the first, and hopefully not last GTG in The Netherlands. I've compiled a full program for our guest. A breakfast, courtesy of MCD, followed by a tour around the many watch dealers and through the shopping district.

Here is the list:

Frans,
Frans Hens,
GoodWatch,
The guy who's a moderator at TRF,
The Dutchie (glad you can make it!),
The honorary Brit,
Jimbits best friend,
Bubba's long lost foreign cousin,
The member who collects flight jackets,
The #5 on the tosser list,
And all the guys who I forgot to mention!

See you soon, PM me for details!

Did you write this from one of your cafes? Count me in I'm looking forward to the Amsterdam shopping tour. I hear the window shopping can be fun and most things can be bought, sometimes with a discount.

What was supposed to be a joke didn't exactly come to fruition. In other words, it crashed and burned And don't PM me anymore with questionable propositions

Looks like you've been moved to Another section...sectioned???????

BTW, if we ever make it to Netherlands...we'll have to meet.

Maybe I could get the two Martin's and Stuart to chip in with the Ferry Tickets for the carload and we make it a cross channel GTG!!!!!

What's funny is that I knew it was a joke and I was also having the wife look up airfares. Problem was she could not locate an AirFrans airline.

On a serious note:

I'm up for that Jim - name you date and I'll be there !!

It would be good to see the man behind the button.

Too subtle Frans. Still would have been an interesting meeting with you and your multiple "friends".
