Time and place. ;-) Feb 27, 2007

Regarding the time and place: I am waiting for the end of this week before confirming the time and the venue, as long as that is all right with most of you. Before confirming, I would like to have a bit more certainty as to how many people will be showing up. I have two places in mind, and have called both, so it really depends on how many we are. And regarding time, I wanted to perhaps take a vote? We could meet around lunch time, share a meal and coffee, or meet for a couple drinks and a snack... See more

Time and place Feb 28, 2007

I guess I'd prefer around noon or mid-afternoon. I'll be coming from near Lucerne and I'd like to return in the evening. In any case, during the Car Salon hotels in Geneva will be rather fully booked. But, in any case, I am not 100% sure whether I can make it at all.

My telephone numbers (in case you get lost or need anything at all) are 022 777 7939 and 076 531 6077. Mappy and maporama are excellent for figuring out how to get there... and those of you who came to the previous Powwow, this is very near the location of the previous place.icon_smile.gif

If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to leave me a note or give me a call!
