Angie Like it! :)

noun Oh! Yes good idea Tania! When and where?

Ian Prince That's quite a coincidence, I was thinking of proposing the same idea ;)

Maybe @Flo could make it too...

tigg Maybe, just maybe, if you gave lots of notice, others may find it the best reason to take a short holiday ......

tania That would be great...

tigg If you fix something up, please make sure I am aware ... a comment on my project or something? Thanks

tania Sure I will

Ian Prince My vote goes for Nyon of course ;)

tania Nyon ???? I was thinking of something new. I think I already came once in Nyon. Why not something new ? Or more centered depending on who might come.

noun Yes! I think more centered could be better! What about Freiburg, or Bern?

Ian Prince Bern is one of my favorite Swiss towns...

Ian Prince I was joking, but you knew that already ;)

emmanuelle Berne? Perfect centered , beautiful city .... What Else???!!!

Terry Artt I would be interested. I'm central so anywhere suits me. When?

Ian Prince Well, we are in Switzerland, so maybe a Doodle is called for ;) @tania, want to set one up for us?

tania I can but we could wait a little, see if others are interested in, no ?
1. Do you trust me to set up a Doodle ? I don't think I know how... ;) J'rigole....
2. I suggest January of February, a Saturday or Sunday if you guys don't mind.
4. I don't care about the destination, everything will suit me...

Ian Prince We seem to be five already... so Doodle away and let's see who signs up ;)

I suggest to try and put in plenty of date options, that way we can try and find something that works for as many of us as possible.

biquette I'm interested too!

vera Mi tou!

tania So doodle...

tania Here's the Doodle, ready to sign up ?

doodle.com/poll/ddkbffbqu69r22...

Ian Prince Done :)

vera Done!

tania Anyone else for the doodle ? @terry, @Ron, @Cicérøn ?

Cicérøn & Jamie D. Carrey Hello, really saddened, but I cannot participate in your meeting... :-((

Terry Artt Sorry I have realised that I am pretty heavily booked most weekends in January and February and I am still uncertain which dates are free. Sort out a date that suits everyone and if I am able I will join you.

tania OK. If you're not we'll find a new one during Spring !

tania Hi @Ian, @noun, @biquette, @Ron, @vera. Do you all agree if we book both dates : 24.1 and 14.2 ? And if the weather doesn't seem nice on 24th January we postpone to 14th February ?

biquette Yes it's ok for me!

vera Ok 4 mi

tania Done ! 24.1 if the weather is good. 14.2 if not... I let you choose the destination and the time :)

tigg Have you made any final plans yet? Might it be February?

tania Have you not seen the doodle ? We planed 24th January, if the weather's ok, 14th February otherwise. Sorry Tigg, I was sure you'd have a look on the doodle. Any chance to join us ? I don't think the weather forecast might help us before next week...

tigg Yes I did look, doodles are new to me! I'll see what the diary looks like - think it would be fab for my hubby to take me to Switzerland for Valentines Day!
Did you settle on a location - sorry to be a pain.

tania You're not !! We haven't yet...

noun If the weather is good, we should see each other in a week. I propose that we'll meet in Solothurn, a nice city and less known than Bern, or Neuchâtel. Of what do you think?

tania @Ron, @Ian, @biquette, @vera, "youhouhou les p'tits Suisses" ! What about Sunday ? The weather forecast just announced : "Temps assez ensoleillé, voire bien ensoleillé en Valais. Maximum 5°" So.... timing and location ?

Ian Prince How about Lausanne? Plenty to photograph, eat and drink :)

vera Hello everybody! Yes I'm here with you on Sunday for the swiss meeting! the meteo isn't very good. I would be very happy to see Solothurn, but meteo says a bad weather there... For me Berne is very good or near the classical Gruyère?
We could meet in the afternoon around 15h00 and eat something together in the evening? I think the light is better in the morning or in the evening. What do you think tania, noun, Ron, Ian, biquette, and who else?

noun Hello everybody, in fact I'm not sure to want to meet in Lausanne, it would mean for me that I go to work!
What do you think to meet in Vevey, Montreux or Geneva, the weather could be better in Vevey or Montreux (No stratus!!)
For the time, I thought to meet in the morning or the end of the morning, so we can eat together and shot some pics in the afternoon. I prefer not to late because we work on monday.
So give me your opinion!

tania Hi again ! Impossible for me in the evening, I'll have to fetch the kids around 6pm. Location : das ist für mich egal. Food and drink welcome :)))

Ian Prince Earlier the better for me.

I'm not that concerned for the taking photos part (and the weather), for me it's more about meeting you all :) So the less travel the better ;)

vera Ok for noon, noun! Hahaha! For me is all good!
I propose you first to meet each other over a meal, et après on verra! Hahaha!
À Vevey pour moi parfait! There is a nice oriental restaurant "Aladin" open sunday if you want?

noun Très bien pour moi!

Ian Prince I need to be back home by 14h30. It's a one and a half hour trip from Vevey, so I'll need to leave by 13h, so it will have to be a quick lunch for me... Am happy to meet up an hour or two before lunch if anyone can make that,

vera Oh yes! That's too short for your Ian! We can meet at 10:00 in Vevey if you prefer and take a coffee instead of lunch ?

Ian Prince How about Morges? ;) Not too far for @tania and @noun ! I can stay a bit longer too :)

There's a very nice café too where we could have brunch : balzac.ch

vera For me it's very good too! Better to have much time together ;-)

vera Hello everybody from Switzerland! I see that the Balzac restaurant in Morges is open from 11:00 on sunday. And they asked to make a reservation for brunch... so all of you are you ok for Morges? Who comes? Tania, noun, Ron Dadoo, biquette, emmanuelle, tigg, Terry Artt... someone else?

tania OK for me too. Good idea. As I consider the Balzac as one of my stamm ;) I can book it tomorrow morning. Emmanuelle is not coming. I'll book for 6-7...

vera Ok Thank you Tania!

tigg not me I am sorry to say.

Jesse Lind Now I wish I lived in Poland :D
