    Many thanks Henk, I understand that if I need to book something vegetarian for your braai, I need to contact you well in advance hence the early warning. As for bringing my dogs they should be pretty well behaved, so no need to really worry after all St Bernards usually have a siesta over the midday period.. Thanks again for your kind invite

    Hi Guys,

    Thanks for the suggestion, Gert, to hold the meeting at my home, but I think my wife would have a heart attack:mad:, so this is not going to work out.

    We could meet in Stellenbosch in the Biochem department, but this would mean that we would largely be without fishes, which would be dissappointing as everyone wants fishes or aquatic plants when they come to such a meeting. It would also be quite a drive for those from Cape Town which is not optimal.

    I have a connection at the Two Oceans Aquarium and I want to see if we can't perhaps meet there. I have been on a behind the scenes tour before, and I think this would be interesting for everyone to see, lots of pumps and pipes and filters and things. Let me see what I can organize, but no promises as this is always associated with security and insurance issues nowadays and they may pull one of these moves on me. What I could then perhaps do is give a talk on what ever topic you might want and then we could go somewhere at the waterfront to eat and meet socially. Henk, as one of the sponsors can certainly chip in, I would say........ :suspicious:

    Oh and Trevor, I believe that Henk now makes a vegetarian boerewors roll from boerewors that contains the Spirulina Omega One flakes, apparently this is a hit in Alaska amongst the salmon there......:blink1:

    What do you say guys?

    Kind regards,

    Dirk

    Come now guys play nice - can we not just all meet 1/2 way, say at Colesberg? Then the JHB and CT can have a true meet at a plaas dam?

    So Ferdie are you suggesting a kurper angling competition at the Gariep Dam sponsored by Henk?

    After that we can have a kurper braai met Eish!

    I have to speak at a meeting somewhere during the day on 23 MAy in Pta and can basically go back immediately, but I want to visit a few other people then as well, so I was thinking of staying over on the evening of 23 May. I know that is a Monday which is not so good, because it is a normal week night, but I get to JNB every three months or so, so we can try the next time again as well.

    Come to think of it, what would most probably be best would be if I came up on the Saturday before that and gave a talk on the evening of the 21st?

    Kind regards,

    Dirk

    Hmm wonder if the petshop that had the small fire issues will be up and running by then .. would be cool to do a LFS crawl in PTA and then find a place with good coffee and food. Does mean that I would need be less asocial ...

    I'm still trying to figure out how you guys are trying to rope me into hosting this and how you got to the interesting issue of me being a vegetarian. i mean... vegetarian! what an insult! :) i'll sommer braai a massive T-bone tomorrow morning for breakfast!

    Hmm Ferdie, yes the small fire LFS is apparently up and runnig and it would be interesting to visit it appears, and then we just need to find a place to put a cow onto the coals met Eish.....

    Henk, how about your place for the meeting, met Eish..... and please boet, we know that you cannot cope without a decent stuk of steak daily, so don't worry about the vegetarian story.... we know that is a myth.... where is the Cape conference to meet then (if super rugby can use this term, why can't we, I am hell, who do they think they are? Just fifteen adult men on a field versus fifteen other adult men, really).

    Kind regards,

    Dirk

    Hi Henk. I think It would be a great way for you as a sponsor and a Director at Mico-lift and Omega foods to put a presentation together and throw in a few goodies into Hamper for us hobbyists. Effective advertising and Brand awareness and consolidation.

    This could make for the beginings of an Expo here in Cape Town
