Amsterdam visit

So, the time is nigh. Just to wrap it up: tomorrow an Allegro meet-up in Amsterdam held at place of choosing by gentlemen Andrei Ellman and/or Evert (most likely an Irish pub or de Beiaard). The only variable is time. I think that it is safe to assume that I can be at 1930 at the Spui tram station to meet up with Evert.

Is that OK?

Possibly.

My constraint is that I need to have dinner first and then have time make my way down and at the moment two people at home have a cold/flu/something similar. I will try to be home and fix dinner at sixish, so that we have time to put the kid to bed at sevenish. That should give me enough time, but it leaves little margin for error.

Alternatively (if we're possibly going to end up there anyway) we could meet up at de Beiaard at 20:00, which gives me a little more time to get there and allows who ever gets there first to sit down and have an early drink.

I'd say you can recognise me by my Allegro t-shirt, but it's not warm enough to wear just a t-shirt, so it'd be covered up by my sweater anyway.

Apart from my goatee, I look more or less the same as I did in '06, but even so, I'll be wearing a geeky T-shirt (possibly one with an Atari logo on it).

AE.

Allright then, 2000 at de Beiaard, that should get rid of most possible moments. I should be wearing red-bleck checkered shirt. Friend of mine is almost hard to miss in a crowd, blonde hair and almost always red faces :) I'll be looking forward to seeing you.

It's a souvenir from my meetup with Matthew.

I just returned back home from Amsterdam. It was a fabulous weekend and I definitely have to return there. Oh, by the way the Conterto music store is absolutely awesome :)

Anyway, on Friday me and my friend met at De Beiaard with Evert and Andrei. It was a nice evening, I was glad to meet you guys in person. And of course, pictures:

Also mind that the pictures were taken couple of minutes before we all left the place and headed to our homes.

I'll buy you a Pepsi(TM)(Nectar of the Godz) and you can put a beer label on it to shut these guys up. Win-win!

Actually, I don't like cola either (wouldn't be good for me either). Besides, it's not my problem if other people have a problem with me not drinking beer. :P

Damn you Evert, damn you and you're non-beer drinking ways.

I don't really know Czech stereotypes, but perhaps he means how serious you look in the picture? :P Your face is just straight and tense.
