Fayz wrote:First off I really do want to apologize for letting this slip a bit, work has gotten the better of me.

Secondly I won’t lie, Soupie getting fcked over was not something I appreciated seeing.
I’ve been involved with organizing a couple of events and they have all went off without a hitch including the first ever DF meet so I’m going to give this a shot and think positive.

Okay here is the deal.

It’ll be Nov 24, if I get a minimum of 20 people I can make our own private after safari tent event. The price will be base 150 plus the extras that we choose, I’m going to say everyone budget aprox. 200, closer to 300 if you want to camp plus alcoholic beverages if you’re inclined.

The stuff that’ll be included.
• Desert Safari (typical landcruiser in the sand event)
• Henna
• Shisha
• Food
• Sunset in the sand,
• **** I think most of you have done similar events so you know the score.

The options are
• Camping (tents and breakfast will be provided)
o Oh and for Sara, yes there is a 60% chance of bathrooms
• Having a lamb (traditional meal), all the expats here in previous posts who’ve never had a traditional local meal should definitely get in on this.
• And a couple surprises that’ll be mentioned at a later date

What I need from you, if you want to come, let me know, we’ll arrange for a deposit. If you say yes you best be showing up

Special note for soupie, if you come we’ll all pitch and pay for your ticket, hope you can make it.

Start posting your names here and lets get this happening.

bushra21 · Nov 12, 2006

I was thinking...just a suggestion fayz

to ensure that you dont get screwed over (monetary wise) why not set up a paypal account? everyone interested in going can send the money to that account and whomever (most likely you) is in charge will pay with that.

so then, whoever paid paid and is comming, or if they dont show up its their loss and not the others...

Jeevan · Nov 12, 2006

Now thats innovative bushra

now if its camping i am out , i work next day . so will have to wait and see if it turns out to be camping.

cheers,

J

bushra21 · Nov 12, 2006

fayz · Nov 12, 2006

wow first off thank you Bushra for taking the time to do the above posts, much appreciated.

By tomorrow afternoon I'll have the full details, but it is looking like it'll be a good turnout and most are opting to spend the night. for those that haven't posted whether they are in for the camping can you please post here.

Look forward to seeing you all there.

Paypal, I'll have to think about, good suggestion.

I'm sorry to hear that, the date changing was my fault, i couldn't get things organized in time I had a couple emergency trips I had to make.
