Annual PPRO European GTG, who's in?
Well, my friends,
I'm a bit late, this year, because I have to conciliate several factors, such as disponibility, work, and so on...
You know, these very vulgar things from real life...
So, this year, WE want to do it again.
1/ About the Place:
3 options:
A/ London, as each time we did it, it was a real blast.
B/ Spain.
We have several friendly contacts, there, and it may change a bit as we did it twice in London.
It would be in Valencia or Alicante, at the Sea side... Sea, Watches and Sun.
C/ Paris.
Do I have to elaborate?
2/ About the Time:
That was the most problematic thing for me, as I have a lot of work, right now, and some big things to do with in June.
Therefore, some of our Purist Friends from the US will come to Paris at the end of June ( 17th for one, 25th for the other ).
Another good friend of us will also come for an Euopean Visit at the same time.
I had to have a confirmation of that before being able to say anything.
So, I have no idea about the place, nor any preference, I let you choose that.
About the time, my point of view is to wait till the last week of June, to be sure that our friends from the US and Asia may attend.
I kindly ask some of you to help me to organize this GTG, as I'm literally overbooked these next weeks.
Once the place and the moment fixed, all the further details will be communicated by PM only, as per security rules.
So, now, it is up to you to talk.
Best, my friends.
Nicolas

hi Nico, very glad to know this annual Euro GTG to be coming soon. my trip to London was postponed due to volcano eruption few weeks ago and now is re-scheduled to the 2nd week of June, i.e. 7-11 June. at most i will be able to stay behind in Europe for t...
After checking my agenda ....
17th or 25th should not be a problem .... The place .... preferably Paris ..... maybe London ... Spain ? If i can catch a plane ... why not .... Filip
Hi Nicolas,
Paris problebly would be most easy ,beside's Amsterdam ;-) so if it would be 25 of June, then i'm in. best, Michel
I'll try....
to get there depending on when and where it is! Thanks for getting this moving. Vernon
hi nicolas. i can do Paris or London, but just cannot afford Spain
as you are aware i am in the process of making your english counterparts rich. in principle i am happy to come to London or paris(thanks to Filips kind invitation), but spain is just too much money for me to spend at this difficult time. whichever date yo...
Place....
Although sun & watches sounds interesting..... I would suggest a more central place to accommodate all.... We had airplane troubles during this past month (including this weekend)... it was rare but still... My suggestion would be Paris or, alternatively ...
Let's go big and do Paris this year
I hope Nicolas will roll out the red carpet for us. I will be happy to help. London is always good but they have been our hosts too many times it is time for the Parisian clan to show us some love. Tail of June is always good and everything is planned for...
My choice would be Paris....
to have a change from London..!! Couldn't do Spain this year plus still lots of issues with the volcano at the moment...I managed to get back from Turkey last week but it was up in the air till the last minute - although I wouldn't have minded staying the...
My suggestion is Paris.
Let's choose a central place because if we still have the volcano troubles, it would be better. Fr.Xavier This message has been edited by foversta on 2010-05-13 13:13:12
I have a brilliant idea ...
... let's go to the volcano ... should make some crazy pictures ...
Yes, but only if AP offers me a ROO... :)
You're definitely crazier than me... Best, Nicolas
You're too kind, Thomas...A True Friend! :)
Without mask, my friend..It is funnier! Best, Nicolas
Paris would be ideal
I think for many of us, easy to reach by plane (if any) train or car. GEO
I have great memories of Paris
One can have a great blast there too End of June in Paris would be great. Second choice would be London with Spain in third place. Hamburg, as suggested my PP, is also a great and interesting place! Best, Martin
No preferences.
Spain would be great ( I live in Valencia, you know), London and Paris would be great also. Direct flights from Valencia. I really don't mind about where. I would love to join in. but it's not going to be easy for me, too much work lately and some co-work...
Will if I can.
Bit tied up around that time but will certainly be there if I can. No real preference re location; can do FR, ES or GB - whatever's easiest for all. Many thanks G.
Paris 25. June
I've been in touch with Nicolas, would be happy to help out hosting in Paris, june 25. sounds good according to the answers above... Matt
End of June would be fine to me in either city...
but with a strong preference for London or Paris. Spain is not conveniently reached from Vienna. Cheers, Magnus
Ok, Dédé...If you insist...
Prepare the BBQ and please, fill the fridge! Best, my friend. Nicolas
Paris and I could probably make it BUT
why so soon ? Why not and of july or august ?? June could be too soon for me
Here I am guys,
the 25 th for sure as before I will be with fellos Purists in USA. London?if so i am in for helping as usual,Paris?well it is becoming my second city so.......why not? If I can help in any way I will.... Mo
Nice places to a great GTG...
You know my first choice, but the other two places are so great; London is a great city which I enjoyed last year a lot and Paris is my second home... you know that last year I went to Paris for five times The pity is that I think that this year I´ll...
Can´t promise anything for June ...
as I don´t know yet. It all depends on my customers. Paris would be nice for me, as I have never been there ... ;-) Really hope I can do it. Oliver
London or Paris would be my first choice!
Please let me know when the date is set. June is already very full but maybe I can reschedule depending on date… Would love to join! Best Blomman
Paris has my preference
I would prefer Paris and if it is between the 20th and the 27th of June I will unfortunately be in South Africa, but things could be worse. Would love to join and meet all of you. Hey what do you wear to one of these things? Best regards, George
"Hey what do you wear to one of these things?"
Well, it depends were we meet ... ......

young-un
I'm really tempted to come along and get to know some more about watches and yourselves... At 20 years old I'm probably on the young side I assume? Will give it some thought anyway; don't want to be too out of place with my sparse knowledge! Chris
