SubFrog Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Woo hoo! I love it. Great spread...and yes, I saw the Jack Daniels. The bar looks nice and the hors d'oeuvres look appetizing as well. Just one question: I see some guys holding these small cans. Are all the beverages over there that small? Also, I hope there was a group wrist shot of all the reps, yes!!!??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capice Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 WWOOOOOOOWWWW, finally home........ Amazing, awesome, exhaustive,inspiring,mindblowing, impressive are just some words running through my head, still dazzeling from this weekend. Thank you all for having me in Brussels. Thanks to Andy and Stefane for organizing this superweekend, to Stefane in particular for the delicious apetizers, drinks, hospitality and diner, to Narikaa for sponsoring the raffle. Thanks to Admin for this board, without it this would never have happened !!! Also thanks to Scoobs and Yellomen for a great and entertaining companionship while travelling Leaving with Golfman at 3 AM from Stefane off to the hotel, I was stunned by the technical knowledge, details of you guys about our hobby and sharing wondeful stories. We have our own European The Zigmeister now Now I'm gonna sleep for a while..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 It's great to hear that everyone had a wonderful time but for us poor saps that could not be there.......we want more pic's! Andy many kudos for organizing such a wonderful gtg. Stephane, it matters not how many more gtg's will follow this one I seriously doubt anyone will do such a wonderful job in the hosting that you have done last night. Narikaa I applaud you for putting your hand up to sponsor the prizes for the night and hope that many sales are your just reward. Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephane Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 Thanks for all you comments guys. Well, for sure there are pics but there was also some beers yesterday... It might take another 24 hours for all the pics to be published Most of the pics show the faces and that needs a litlle photoshop work! I'm so sorry I didn't think about taking pics myself but, hey, I was so exited having 16 persons here Reg, I wanted to hold for Andy to post something befor posting my feelings about the GTG but of course, I thank you so much for you great gesture.
