I would love to join this but I’ve already booked to fly to another destination in the following week and couldn’t justify taking more leave for this. Sorry

As with all the annual NZ dinners, we like to make a bit of an effort to dress up, so ask that you do too. A level above smart casual please.

I'm increasingly looking Gold for this event (with my GF), however with regard to the expected dress standards... are we talking business/informal, semi-formal or coughtail? In particular, my GF is seeking more details please!

We usually ask that everyone dresses up, so no jeans. coughtail/semi-formal is fine.

Excellent news.

Likewise - looking forward to the event and meeting everyone

Sadly, being as late to the party as I am, the best redemption I could manage for my return flight was the *gulp* 6:05am to SYD the morning after

I did try a "Hail Mary" with seat releases and props to Rahul in HOB for pushing it through on request (even though we both knew it was 99.9% hopeless).

There are quite a few hotels at CDG which should make the pain a little easier to bear.

Are you trying to convince me to attend the Paris lunch…?

Oops. Too many threads going at once.

 

[QPProletarian]

Put me down for bronze +1 , may be able to swing this if the numbers aren't fixed.

I will not be attending, although I will look on vicariously. Will be in NZ on 7th and 13th, but other destinations await in the days between.
