Watches, drinks, food, WIS's, good weather (well I can hope can't I?!?) and a chance to see Dan in his mankini. Does it get any better?

banned as in "changing the venue and time without telling someone" or banned as in "banned from attending a GTG - full stop"?

Are we going to upload real time pics to this thread as the day progresses? that we we can view it the next day and work out what happend

If anyone has seen the film "The Hangover" will know where I am coming from. Luckily Mike Tyson doesn't live nearby.

Could be a great idea - I know it would be a doddle to upload the pictures to somewhere like Twitter, could be fun to do a running commentary on there!

Depends on the 3G/wi-fi service. It can be done by using iPhone (or something similar) and Tapatalk app.

Cough cough... Our Associate Professor is well accustomed to setting up such things with the latest technology.

I've got my Blackberry (a 3G model) set up with a Twitter App, which is ready dialled in to a Twitter Photo account as well

TRF isn't that Blackberry friendly, so if we're uploading directly here, I think the iPhone crew will have to sort it

Zed Homme · 22 February 2011, 02:43 AM

It's easy to upload pics with tapatalk, but although my carrier gets me cheap intl roaming, they fleece me on data...

Dalip, it's seems like all these guys are "light" drinkers....more scotch for us...

Hey! I'm a University student! One of my modules is advanced drinking techniques

Cannop · 22 February 2011, 10:03 AM

Hey I'm a brewer! You don't work in a brewery for 20 years and not pick up a few techniques!

Excellent!!

Good man Nigel!!

Personally I'll just be bringing whatever I'm wearing watch-wise (although I'm hoping others will bring their collections....) & regarding attire...??

Assuming my mankini's in the wash it'll just be shorts, shirt & a bloody wide skateboard strapped to me back in the hope that someone rolls me back to the hotel when we're done!
