Who will be there?

by Fran (fran at eurotrib dot com) on Fri Aug 27th, 2010 at 02:20:07 AM EST

I have not been around much lately, so I might not have seen comments about attendance at the Meetup in other Diaries or OT's. Please leave a note here if you are not on the list.

Re: Who will be there? (4.00 / 3)

I plan to be there on Saturday. I'll try to think of a Friday program but for the moment I'm not able to do a lot of walking.

Re: Who will be there? (none / 0)

I am arriving on Friday, but I will catch up with some old friends at dinner in the evening. I'm leaving Sunday morning for Lyon and then Aix.

Re: Who will be there? (none / 0)

I'll be arriving Friday 8am, but I have some shopping to do in the morning, and can only check into my hotel at noon. So I should be able to meet from 2pm on (maybe 3pm, to be on the safe side).

Don't have one. If we can't work out the details ahead of time, email me a phone number, and I'll call when I'm in Paris.

I put you in the 'maybe'-list, just in case of the financial miracle. :-)

I will be there. Bringing with me one person. We get in Friday morning, so if there is a Friday programme we'll join that too.

Re: Who will be there? (none / 1)

I will have to take a look at my finances when I get back to Copenhagen. It looks like I can be there, but I want to add up some numbers before confirming.

Re: Who will be there? (none / 0)

I just had a look at my finances, and they are too perilous at the moment to permit international travel. But I do hope that you'll bring a toast or two to absent friends.

Oh, come on. It was a sweet licorice.

Re: Who will be there? (4.00 / 4)

Unfortunately it seems I'm in the 'need a lottery win' camp with most of the rest of the UK contingent.

Should we have a UK meet sometime? It's been a while.

Re: Who will be there? (none / 0)

Count me in -although my wife would argue that I live in France more than in the UK (an overstatement, I think).

Eurostar loyalty points mean that no lottery win will be needed for September, though.

Re: Who will be there? (4.00 / 5)

Very quick note from the law library in Melun:
Ivonne and I will likely be there. As most of you know, we swear off the net for a summer of travel, and now that we are back in circulation--or will be tomorrow-- we will be there.
Look forward to seeing all our friends soon.

Re: Who will be there? (none / 0)

I will not be at the meetup this year but I will be in Paris from this (Monday) afternoon to Thursday morning and again for 24h-ish from Friday evening to Saturday evening.

Those of you with my British or Spanish mobile numbers can call me at either if you'd like to meet.
