Title: Social Events - 2009
Post by: skip on April 06, 2009, 20:15:28 CET
For the bar get together's we will choose two venues, one in the North and one in the South and they will be a general meeting place. We hope to have negotiated discounted rates at these venues, or something like free nibbles but those who attend will not have to pay for a set menu etc, it will be strictly at their own discretion based on consumption.

21st May 8.00pm onwards
Bar get together (South)

24th June
Alungi Competition Safety Briefing / Meet - Punch and Judy Rabat

18th July

That's a good schedule.
Wish that there is ample participation from the members in these events.
Bear in mind guys that people spend time and a lot of involvement to promote those get togethers, and one can get disappointed by non attendance, and this might reflect future promotions.

Well done. I confirm my attendance whenever I can.

Unfortunately no, one place that we had short listed fell through due to the person who we booked with not knowing there was a private event on so we got booted.

We'll see what's happening.....if anyone has any suggestions or know of a place they would like to meet at we'll just go ahead and do that.

If you want I can go and speak to the owner of Kastell Wine Bar @ Tarxien, I think its a nice place for one of our meetings.

@skip
regarding the may function,, Will it be dinner and drinks after because if so I can organize a buffet dinner at the sunflower hotel where I work. full buffet dinner in a restaurant that holds 100pax give or take and drinks after in the bar if you're interested.
PM me for details of menu and prices. It can be done on short notice in the case of emergency.

Post by: skip on May 08, 2009, 21:40:27 CET
Hi craus, the bar events are literally just arranging a place for forum members to optionally meet as the season approaches and during the season. The idea was to have a designated place and time so that if members go along they know there is a good chance of meeting forum members there to chat with.

However for any future events we will def bear in mind the Sunflower hotel :)

Post by: redbus9 on May 10, 2009, 18:28:32 CET
If you just want a place to meet up,Sneakers Pub in Depiro Street Sliema is usually quiet on a Thursday and I,m sure that the owner would wellcome the extra trade. Cisk and Hopleaf are one euro per bottle and shorts start at 1-20 euro. He might be able to put some snacks on for us.Perhaps you want to check it out.Its on the corner of Isouard St and Depiro St.  ;D

Title: Re: Social Events - 2009/2010
Post by: skip on November 02, 2009, 10:21:28 CET
If people want to get together we could do, even though there has been a very poor turn out in numbers recently. Perhaps for a bar event more people would like to attend.

What do you think of Horseshoe Bar in Mosta?

Horse shoe bar: is in Mosta main road once u go over the bridge (wied il ghasel), past the old people home (dar arkati) there isa zebra crossing and Horse shoe bar is on the left hand side (driving to St Pauls Bay side) right at the end of the zebra crossing.
Ps be careful u dont step on a zebra dropping..........;p)

Ummmmm not the Horse Shoe Bar I'm thinking of! Perhaps they used to be there but they are in Vjal Il-Qalbiena Mostin which is down the roads from Scotts Supermarket that sits on the Naxxar/Mosta border.
Title: Re: Social Events - 2009/2010
Post by: shanook on November 08, 2009, 16:44:05 CET
ohhhhhhhhhhhh my mistake then.

Destination throw away that map there has been an update. My GPS was out of sink.
Go up to Naxxar and there is a turning on the left hand side that goes down to Mosta. Its the road before u get to the church. On the corner on ur left there is a playing field and opposite corner there is greenwich stationary. I think this road is 21st December Avenue. go down this road and u get to an opening on the right hand side u see the scotts supermarket .............my gps does not go further than that. Maybe someone else will fill us in with more details.
Title: Re: Social Events - 2009/2010
Post by: skip on November 08, 2009, 17:00:23 CET
After Scotts there's a roundabout, take the 3rd exit (3 o'clock position - 1st exit goes left to Tecnopark, 2nd exit straight down to mosta, next road is One Way!!, leaving the fourth :))

Go down that road Vjal Il-Qalbiena mostin heading for Santa Margerita Area and Horseshoe is half way down on your right.

Coming from the other side, at the roundabout near Jupiter Marine take the road towards the bridge that goes past MCAST Arts. Go over the next roundabout and after you cross the bridge you come to a T junction. Turn right and first left which goes up a small incline and then horseshoe is a bit further up on your left.

Hi guys.
Well we ended up there till about 1am or a bit earlier, that meaning we enjoyed it.
Pitty I could not drink since the day after we went to sea, but really enjoyed that nice piece of horse meat, and our friends their rabbit, and at a very reasonable price indeed.
Good company guys. we are a nice goup of sexy individuals. :-)
