ProZ.com powwow: BYOL (Bring Your Own Language) PowwowMarch 19, 2005, 2:30 pm BelgiumBrusselsIn personEnglish Venue: X-it Brasserie, Rue des Pêcheries 2, 1170 Brussels (Watermael-Boitsfort). (Near motorway exit, reachable by metro(Beaulieu stop)and by busses 95, 96 and 41-get off at Place Keym. Parking should not be a problem and it's free. We'll be 3 km from Avenue Louise and 4 km from the Grand Place and Manneken Pis. Time: from 2.30 p.m. (ie 14.30) until......... Theme: SOMEONE PLEASE SUGGEST SOMETHING-or it will just be a friendly get together to meet with fellow Prozians. That doesn't sound so bad either come to think of it. Menu: 28 € p.p.: includes a welcome drink (after that you're on your own for drinks), munchies, a very vast Belgian-style cold buffet that also includes an assortment of different salads, followed later on by a warm buffet with 3 main dishes-waterzooi, boeuf bourguignon and curried lamb. Vegetarian dishes can also be ordered, but you have to sign up and confirm in time (2 or 3 days notice). Within the next couple of weeks, the brasserie will be online with their site, and you can see pictures, etc. This is a Belgian powwow for ALL Prozian translators and interpreters in Belgium who feel like spending a pleasant Saturday afternoon and part of the evening meeting with Prozian colleagues in a cozy Brussels brasserie in the greenery of Watermael-Boitsfort (aka Bruxelles 1170). No matter what your language. You won't be stuck with just speaking English either-so please sign up and bring your language with you. A special welcome is also extended to Proz colleagues across the borders-there are motorways straight to Brussels from Germany, France, the Netherlands and Luxembourg and it's a mere train ride away from the big Isle out there in the North Sea. What a great excuse for a weekend in Brussels! You should be able to book a good hotel for a very reasonable rate if you book via one of the online agencies. So hoping to have scheduled this between the winter school break and the Easter holidays, at a time when we all have lots of work but that doesn't have to been done during this particular weekend... Looking forward to seeing you March 19th! Better late than never. Here is the URL for the Powwow venue. Happy surfing. http://www.xitlabrasserie.com/horeca/default.jsp | Event Organizer:
