ramses, too bad that you cannot join us!

Scardy would be great if you can make it, we dont know about the location yet, we just wanted to see if anyone would join us, The irish pub from the last meeting was a nice place, so thats a good option.
We didnt plan to organize a tourney but if anyone feels for a tourney he/she can feel free ofcourse:)

hi all  ;)

here the final timetable for our meeting in utrecht:

we will meet at 14.00 (instead of 13.00) in the irishpub(http://www.geocities.com/mick_oconnells/map.html)
coriend made reservations there, so we will not get space-problems.  :cool:

boomslang will organize a small tourney (it will last from about 15.00 to about 18.00), probably 5-pointer and a consolation-round.  :nr1:

then its dinnertime with hopefully good irish food and some nice guiness and kilkenny  :beerdrinkers:  :eten:

see you all next saturday!
