New Members Drinks was great (again). Got to meet some new people and had a mix of familiar faces. Well done, Nir and Sarah-Jane.  Jesse it was great of you to take the pictures even if it was with a canon;)  Hope to see you all soon!

[quote]Terrific evening, with a record turnout of 90 folks...



Special big thanks to the amazing hostess Sarah-Jane. SJ: you are a real star, and I mean it.



Pictures coming soon.



Would love to hear more feedback (just reply to this forum post).



Thanks, Nir[/quote]

Perennially late because there are just so many glocals events, I was so glad to find a crowd still at 10:30! Thanks Nir and Sarah-Jane for the warm welcome. Great conversations well after responsible people like Nir went home to bed.

A huge thank to the lovely Sarah-Jane and Nir, you are simply wonderful!  I had a lovely time and met many so many interesting people, I hadn't thought think there would be so many cool people in Geneva.

Can't wait to see you guys again!

Megs, For mocking my Canon the feet shot stays in!



Besides, your feet look awesome and SJ's shoes are rocking!

The new members drinks are the place to be if you want to meet new folk and generally have fun. Great venue, excellent company and just a damn good do. Thanks as always to Nir for his organisation and endless enthusiasm. Dont miss the next one:)

All: thanks for the feedback. I now also received the pics from Jesse (JMfromTo), and will post them tomorrow.

Firemat: thanks mate. The big thanks goes to Sarah-Jane tho...I just come and shake hands like a used-sales man. It's S-J that does the real hard work of welcoming folks and of being so nice to everyone...(-:

Hi Nir,

Yesterday new members party was really amazing. I've met so many people that my agenda is overbooked up to next week.

I appreciated your (Sarah and you) nice welcome and liked all people I talked to.

Congratulations for glocals concept and thanks for your efficient management!

Cheers

This was really a fantastic turn out this week and everyone was extremely sociable and was so nice to see so many different discussions and laughter all going on around us.



Great to have some really new people come along that were feeling a bit lost and have now made alot of new contacts and left very happy people.



Good to also see some familiar faces, you are all testing my memory skills with over 90 tags done this week !



Keep up the Glocals spirit to those of you that came along.

And to those of you that have not been yet......give it a go !

You never know what doors it might open for you :)



Enjoy your weekend,

Sarah-Jane :D

Another great event! And the best thing is that I've started to see the same people in all events :) Waiting for the next one!  Good work Nir and SJ.

babylambchop:

Thanks. But the credit needs to go to SJ, not me. I totally missed the 1st hour of the NMD last week, which is when the host needs to work hardest cos the event doesn't yet take on its own momentum.

So I arrived an hour late, leaving all the hard work to SJ, and by the time I came the pevent was buzzing! Thanks SJ!
