Pre-SMD2 party in Amsterdam mayhap ? ;D
Yeah, not sure I buy the innocent windowshopping bit either - and if he was at the Banana Bar, they DO take Amex
BTW - the BananaBar is NOT like the Folies Bergere! The folk I went w/ kind of misrepresented what it was going to be like. Not some big dance theatre thing & let's just say I'll never look at a banana the same way again
But my bank & cc co's were more concerned about my trying to check my account status online & gave me warning messages because of the int'l IP.
Pre-SMD2 party in AMS or VIE works for me if anyone is around!! I'll be in AMS 9/8-15, VIE 9/16-19, AMS 19th. Fly back on the 20th.
Cheers.
