Dear All,

Let’s get together and organize the first Expat-Blog Meet up in Muscat on April 24, 2013, 7.00PM at Caribou Café (Muscat Grand Mall)

This meeting will be a golden opportunity for all of us to communicate, interact and get to meet like-minded friends; also it would be a great opportunity for all newcomers to Muscat who need a helping hand while trying to settle in a new place.

During the meeting we may discuss about holding such gatherings on a regular basis and/or organizing any other social activities.

For those who are interested to join us, kindly leave a comment in here.

Looking forward to meeting all you, and in case of any inquiries or concerns; please do not hesitate to post it here.

Regards,

Rammy87

No one seems to be posting in this sticky thread and yet people keep creating new threads on finding friends..... Come on people, lets get a group going and arrange a successful first get together....

Hi Nitin and thanks for your reply.

Come on guys, I have done a few of these get togethers in Bahrain and they are great fun and a lot of really good friendships have developed. Me and Vido Dido is an example of one of those.

Vido Dido is a very genuine, gentle, fun loving guy so I know for sure he will organise something really great and you will love the evening.

Just wish I was closer so I could come along too.

Thanks Jo for the supportive words, knowing you and the other guys is something will continue to be proud of and hope to see you soon in Bahrain :)

We can't wait to see you back here in Bahrain and really look forward to seeing you. I hope your evening turns out to be the success it deserves to be. My first meeting would never have been so good if it hadn't been for your support.

Its a great idea. I will be there.

Gornado

Why don't we just play bowling & get to know each other while having fun? It's rather "non-formal"

Eyeclick

that will be a fun thing to do also.

DunMoving

Sounds good to me.

schaz

Guys! This is something i've been really looking for a long time, however i see the results are coming up now. Unfortunately i'll not be in the country on 24th (official visit).... and would be back by 26th.  In any case, do update with the first meeting and I assure my availability afterwards in all gatherings. It will be indeed a great platform for all of us to share nice (and worst) experiences and knowing each other.

VidoDido & Rammy87!  Thumbs up for u guys!!!

Such a great idea and and can be considered as a potential idea for our second meeting.

Actually, for the first time, it would be better to meet face to face over a cup of coffee or so, get to know each others first, get to know the common interests, then plan for the next gathering accordingly.

Would be glad to have you there :)

Hey Schaz, it would have been nice to see you around for the first meet.....

Considering the countless threads that people had created for catching up, including moi.... Its nice to see that we are finally getting a group together..... I'll post pictures of the first meet so as to encourage more get together in the future.

On another note, are you heading down to the Red Bull Soap Box thingy at the Boushar Dunes on Thursday?? Being a OAC member, I thought I would see you there !!!

schaz

Unfortunately NO :)
I have a bit of family matters to be sorted out and would not be able to join. But if you willing to meet me up, you can meet me anytime. My house in Madinat-Illam and if you can come sometimes there nearby, i would love to meet u as well!

Further to it, don't cancel the get together, even if its 3 or 4 people, go for it. It would be a nice step further to a social expat gathering here in Muscat which we're looking forward for a long long time.

Hi,

I hope to drop in. Cheers!

Schaz ... You would be missing buddy, would have loved it if you could have managed to join us, as it was going to be a good opportunity for me to thank you for your prompt contribution on the forum. Your inputs are adding a great value to the forum and enlightening the path to many members who seek clarifications related to their expat's life in Oman.

But for sure will count you in, in the next gathering or we can meet up for coffee some time at your convenient, just drop me a line at any time.

Good Luck with your official visit :)

Regards,

VidoDido
