The Meetup
Just got back from the meetup. I was expecting or should I say I was hoping that around 20 people would come but to my surprise around 35 people showed up. It was pretty cool and I got to put faces on a lot of nicknames, also having Starbucks as our venue was a good choice since we had a whole section to ourselves. Overall it was nice meeting everyone and for those who missed it maybe we will meet next time.

Cajjie I figured out the bracket step thing – Thanks!
32. Q8Sultana | August 10th, 2006 at 3:44 pm
If this meet-up was a year earlier I could have gone :)
Seems like it was fun :)

It’s unanimous – “Get me pics, or get me outta here!”(it’s all right even the neighboring kingdoom of holier-than thou, is permitting public photography for a change).
Apparently, there were some blokes and ladettes present who dropped everything they were doing in Genoa and Machu Picchu just to be in Kuwait for this meetup, and to catch a heavenly glimpse or two of the Shark, Marzuq’s thingy and Mark’s beautiful launderette.
Naughty, naughty…the night is still young.
