Sorry won't be able to make it, have to work late. Hope to make it to the next HH.

It was fun. Just when you think you know a little or have been somewhere neat you talk to other FTers. 6 Mo in Africa - wow. 7 hours by train to PIT for a cheaper flight - ouch! One more time, what doesn't LH own?

Cheers -

FYI: the Winter edition of DC Restaurant Week will take place from Monday, January 9 through Sunday, January 15.

Any interest? I'm going to be in Singapore for most of the period, so it will probably fall to someone else to make reservations.

Jan 10 or 11 work for me.
Greg -- are you still going to Cambodia? Need some rial? I probably have 80 cents worth.

I can do the 11th. Shall I go ahead and choose somewhere to make a reservation? I think we usually make reservatons for 6 and then adjust if we don't fill all the slots.

We're going to be at the HR Reston this coming Thursday and Friday, Jan 19-20. If there is anyone around anywhere out there who would like to meet for drinks or dinner, let's set something up.

I could do Friday night and have been wanting to try PassionFish in Reston if that would interest you.

Friday night Jan 20 at the Passion Fish maybe 730PM sounds good to me.

Maybe gvdIAD can be persuaded to start a thread for 2012 and include this one even though it is just a little bit outside the Beltway. ;)

7:30 should work. If someone else wants to come and needs transportation, I can offer a ride to/from the Vienna metro. Do you want to make the reservation or shall I?

As for a 2012 thread, we can nag gvdIAD when he's back from SinDo.

No need to nag him. He is aware of what is going on and will get to the thread when he returns.

He also is thinking about the possibility of coming out to our geographically challenged dinner on Friday if it is scheduled to be not too early for him.

So let's move it to a bit later if that will make it more accessible. I guess you can make the res for four at 8 and we can always change back it to three or (hopefully) increase the number if anyone else signs on.

I also figure that it would not be too much of a hardship for me to take people back to the Orange line if someone wants to come out from a civilized part of Metro DC without a car. :)

TrojanHorse Jan 16, 2012 10:44 am

I'll be out with an 8 p.m. start

Unless I can find a place for the kids to go Friday night, I'll be SOL

I'll see if I can find something for them but until then I"ll have to take myself off the list
