dylanegan commented 11 years ago

Thinking about the 26th to the 2nd. @roidrage is doing the same. Tech talk on the 1st in town so I'd be keen on a day/overnight trip for Saturday/Sunday if others are up for something.

Not sure who else will be in town.

/cc @benburkert @obfuscurity

roidrage commented 11 years ago

Totally up for doing something nice on the weekend.

obfuscurity commented 11 years ago

I'm flying in on the 26th and out on the 30th.

roidrage commented 11 years ago

Coffee and breakfast at Dwell in Cambridge on the 27th it is!

roidrage commented 11 years ago

Flights booked! \o/

jnewland commented 11 years ago

I'll be there :zap:

roidrage commented 11 years ago

@jnewland @benburkert would you guys be up for sharing an apartment?

dylanegan commented 11 years ago

@jnewland sweet.

I'll be in town from the 26th to the 2nd. We should do dinner on the 26th. @roidrage and myself get in around 19:30. I can organise a place if I get some numbers.

/cc @imbriaco @josephruscio @quirkey

jnewland commented 11 years ago

A lot of @github/ops is sharing an airbnb already. I'm in for dinner for sure.

josephruscio commented 11 years ago

@dylanegan making travel plans now, but I'm probably taking the red-eye in the evening of the 26th, so I can't make dinner that night. Definitely looking forward to hanging out with people!

roidrage commented 11 years ago

@josephruscio coffee and breakfast at Dwell on 27th! :)

dylanegan commented 11 years ago

OK, so I'm booked in for the same flights as @roidrage.

If we don't make it to Boston then it is because I decided to get really drunk at the Clubhouse in Heathrow. I assume it'll go down as follows. While we were dining and wining (just me on the wining) in the Clubhouse, I decided that it would be a great time to hop in the spa (see below). Unbeknownst to me, you can't just get naked in the Clubhouse and carry your drink to the spa. So I'll assume at this point that @roidrage has already distanced himself from me and I am proceeding towards the spa. Unfortunately, something I didn't immediately notice, I am being chased down by staff, from every angle. With @roidrage unwilling to help me, I am unsure as to what to do next. A quick judgement call and I decide, fuck it, I want that spa! I make a dash for it, but mistakenly take the wrong turn and head out of the Clubhouse. I am suddenly in the busy causeway of the Terminal. In my birthday suit and a glass of fine Champagne. TBC.

Also, just a reminder, I am naked during most of this ordeal.

quirkey commented 11 years ago

@dylanegan I'll be traveling with the whole @paperlesspost/ops crew but we should be getting there for dinner on the 26th, too. We definitely need to eat/drink/catchup

roidrage commented 11 years ago

@quirkey \o/ looking forward to seeing you guys again! :)

dylanegan commented 11 years ago

@qurikey how many people would that be? Just so I know what kind of table size we might need. Also you can't do team mentions outside of the scope of your organisation. :wink:

quirkey commented 11 years ago

@dylanegan 5 including myself. Ill have to get back to you on arrival time

roidrage commented 11 years ago

Found a picture representing our upcoming spa experience quite nicely:

obfuscurity commented 11 years ago

I'll be arriving early afternoon on the 26th. I should be around for dinner/drinks/whatever that evening. At some point I'll need to excuse myself to inspect the venue but that'll probably happen on the 27th.

dylanegan commented 11 years ago

OK. What time is good for dinner(s)?

Also I have a free apartment with a swimming pool. PoolConf 2013? :wink: Maybe not.

quirkey commented 11 years ago

Some changes in plans - we won't be up to Boston until the night before the conf (weds) and there will be only 4 of us (including myself). Down for dinner that night though.

Just booked, I'll be in town the 24th - 30th.

dylanegan commented 11 years ago

/cc @asenchi because of https://twitter.com/asenchi/status/299564100176969728.

asenchi commented 11 years ago

I'll be there the 24th - 30th.!

roidrage commented 11 years ago

asenchi commented 11 years ago

Thinking of putting on a drinkup the 26th, does that feel like a good day for everyone? I need to find a bar.

asenchi commented 11 years ago

@dylanegan If there's room I'd like to join for dinner.

dylanegan commented 11 years ago

@asenchi yeah, we can do dinner and then drink up? I can locals for recommendations on a bar. What kind of bar are you looking for?

dylanegan commented 11 years ago

For those of us staying for the weekend (@benburkert?) some suggestions for a quick weekend trip.

obfuscurity commented 11 years ago

@asenchi I've heard good things about The Meadhall.

roidrage commented 11 years ago

@asenchi you guys sharing an apartment? if so, happen to have a bed/couch? :)

obfuscurity commented 11 years ago

@roidrage I'd share my room at the Kendall but I only booked a single King. :crown::poop:

asenchi commented 11 years ago

@dylanegan We'd look from somewhere 21+, can hold a hundred or so people (not sure how many people will be in town), basically the bigger the better. And obviously good beer. I can get anything you have added to our internal event app.

asenchi commented 11 years ago

@roidrage I'll check, it's GitHub paid for so not sure policy here, also we have a lot of people and I am not able to make the decision. But let me check. What dates are you in town?

roidrage commented 11 years ago

@asenchi: will be in from March 26 to April 2nd. thank you!

asenchi commented 11 years ago

@roidrage Ok, we only have it until 12pm on the 30th, so you'd need arrangements for after that. I'll let you know.

roidrage commented 11 years ago

@asenchi that'd absolutely work! :)

asenchi commented 11 years ago

@roidrage Yeah, we've gotcha. It may be tight so you may end up with a couch or a chair FYI, but that should work.

Email me at curt@gh and I'll give you the addresses.

dylanegan commented 11 years ago

For you @asenchi. I can get more if you need.

dylanegan commented 11 years ago

Trying to organise a private dining experience on the 27th if people would be interested. Will see if they have availability for 6+ people.

asenchi commented 11 years ago

@dylanegan Thanks for the venues, I'd be interested in dinner on Wednesday. I am confused though, dinner on Tuesday and Wednesday or did you just move it to Wednesday.

Either way, I am in, one or both days. :v:

dylanegan commented 11 years ago

@asenchi, yeah, I usually eat dinner every day. :wink:

dylanegan commented 11 years ago

So thinking about booking a table for 18 people on the 27th. Considering there'll be a bunch of Hubbers in town I think the extra chairs can be filled.

Everyone eats meat, right?

quirkey commented 11 years ago

YES

dylanegan commented 11 years ago

Hit a slight snag with the restaurant and larger sizes. It comes with a minimum so I think that'll be out unless someone wants to sponsor a dinner? :wink:

Will see what I can sort out.
