Post by: danny on October 30, 2009, 08:44:48 AM: Yes, there's a Starbucks hidden at the end of the bookstore. The bookstore is just a convenient meeting point. From there we can make our rounds to the many AD outlets at the Gardens.

Post by: danny on October 31, 2009, 01:07:56 PM: Hi guys,
Scott beat me to it, but I thought I'd share some pics taken from last night's informal get together.
Sorry for the cam phone pic quality. Next time we'll make sure to bring at least one SLR to take proper table shots.
:Cheers:

Post by: takashi78 on October 31, 2009, 01:35:28 PM: Nice pics....looks like i dont need to post mine since very similar shoots.
Like Scott said yesterday, did anyone notice the time we took the pics.
Just like all the watch ads where it can show the logo and brand of the watch best. 10:10

Mr. Yong,
It was a last minute arrangement, so we could not get the message out fast enough. Even then 7 of us crazy folks managed to meet up that day.
Next time we'll make sure to give more advance notice so that more members will be aware of the GTG event. Hopefully we'll get to meet more people the next time.
:Cheers:

Hi guys,
