Sorry, Paulus.  I’m away on vacation.

Hope you lot will have a great day!

Best regards,

Lars

[Maarten]

Paul can you please re-confirm the starting time?

In the original invitation it was 09:30 at Pig & Rye, now you mention 10:30.
That is at least 2 coffees and cake earlier and would mean a lot more walking to get rid of the calories!

Sorry Maarten, maybe it was confusing: I was in Southern France when I wrote it and could not find the plan. So here is the definitive one:

 Saturday 12 June now changed to 21 August:

9:30-10:30. Nieuwlandstraat 28 Tilburg:

Meet at “Pig and rye “ very good food and a nice place to be. 

You can also buy some (lunch)bread here if you like. 

The “ worstenbroodjes “ a typical southern Dutch treat are the best in the Netherlands.( No really, I’m a connaisseur )  The “pain au chocolat” is better than in France J and their pulled pork…well that’s up to the English guests to decide. Last I read, they were cited in Vogue Magazine.

I will reserve for a table of 6 for dinner , just in case. The rest of the day, because we are such a small group. It will be manageable without reservations I think... 

 

I would still hope that more people will arrive. I understand if it's not possible due to all the trouble.Please let me know if your will still attend. 

[farnz]

Sorry, Paulus, but I'm going to miss this one but thank you for all your effort in planning and arranging the meet-up and I hope everyone has a wonderful time and that the weather is kind!

Hi Paulus

Sorry, but just to much difficulty from UK to make trip viable. Hopefully another time! Hope you all have a great day and evening.

[willemr]

I have to cancel as well. Father of a good friend died Sunday, and the funeral is Saturday.

[lanetomlane]

Sorry Paulus but because of travel restrictions we are not going to be able to attend.

I hope the weather is kind to you and that you all have a great day.

[jcraf]

Sorry Paulus, not going to be able to make this one. Well done for organising it, and hope you all have a memorable day.
