Why not get together with other members of the TravelBlog community to eat, drink and swap travel stories? Following on from the low-key but extremely successful 2007 TravelBlog Office Christmas Parties let's keep a good thing going and kickstart another round for 2008! If you're willing to organise a party, post here in the forum saying you're able to do so, and give the location you'll be in (and dates if relevant). It could be as simple as picking out a suitable local bar or restaurant, or if you're in a popular location it may take a little more organising. If you're interested in attending at one of the locations listed, click on the contact's link and send a private message giving the approximate dates you'll be passing through.

My organisational skills are terrible, but I'm sure a good restaurant won't be too hard to locate if, say, 7 or 8 of us are free at the same time. | Drop me a line, J.

If anyone wants to get together for dinner, let me know. | Stuart Stuart Morgan Hurlbut Post Count: 116 Msg: #7 371 days ago, November 21st 2008 | I'm teaching English in the city of Cirebon, Indonesia. It's a 3 hour train ride from Jakarta. Is there anyone in Jakarta over Christmas? If not, I could catch a flight to KL. The school breaks up for a 2 week holiday on the 19th of December. | Marcoelitaliano Marco Daprile Post Count: 100 Msg: #8 371 days ago, November 21st 2008 | Ali, I'm in Thailand right now, but around the dates you mentioned I will have to get out of it, most probably to Malaysia, to renew my visa. I wasn't gonna go to KL (not a fan of big cities), but if the thing get organized I will gladly take part in it. | Marco Clint Holmes Sunrisa Post Count: 3 Msg: #9 371 days ago, November 21st 2008 | Comayagua or Paraiso, Honduras! | Marcoelitaliano Marco Daprile Post Count: 100 Msg: #10 371 days ago, November 21st 2008 | Actually, Ali, why don't we do it on a malaysian island instead of KL? I'm sure it would be funnier and they are usually not to difficult to get to. And then again, you are a diver, what are you doing away from the ocean? :-) | HangLiPoh HangLiPoh :) Post Count: 2 Msg: #11 371 days ago, November 21st 2008 | Hey Ali, I LIVE in KL and am will be here those dates so do let me know if there's something happening in KL - would love to drop by. Thanks! :) | flyingfox KahChin Post Count: 2 Msg: #12 368 days ago, November 24th 2008 | Hey there, anyone in Stone Town, Zanzibar from 29 Dec 2008 to 1 Jan 2009, give me a holler, maybe we can go sailing. | [Edited: 04:45 - flyingfox - typos] Ali Ali Watters Post Count: 3867 Msg: #13 368 days ago, November 24th 2008 | > why don't we do it on a malaysian island instead of KL? | It's not meant to be a huge thing ;) - just a get together of those who happen to be in the area - I live in KL for the time being - and yes - I miss the ocean a lot! The other little problem is that the east coast is in Monsoon - so Langkawi would be the only real option. Vinovat Sudarynya Jonathan Campion Post Count: 694 Msg: #14 367 days ago, November 25th 2008 | It looks like I'll be in London over the weekend of the 13th December. I have a few money concerns at the moment so a pint and a pizza might be all I can allow myself, but I'm more than happy to stand at Victoria station with an A3 sign with "TRAVELBLOG" on it and direct a group of us to a restaurant. | J. The Travel Camel Shane Dallas Post Count: 1028 Msg: #15 365 days ago, November 27th 2008 | I can organise something in Brisbane, Australia. Southbank Parklands is a place with dozens of eating options - December 27-29, and possibly December 26 - though I may be distracted by watching the opening day of the cricket Boxing Day Test Match on TV - South Africa vs Australia ;-) | [Edited: 16:53 - The Travel Camel ] system TravelBlog System User Post Count: 921 Msg: #16 361 days ago, December 1st 2008 | 4 posts moved to this new topic: Christmas carroling | thecrashpacker The Crashpacker Post Count: 142 Msg: #17 360 days ago, December 2nd 2008 | i'm in london. | i'll take you to some decent boozers....
