I think it is easiest if we don't have one. For me a dinner with friends is the goal. The KISS principle works well.

On the dinner, I dropped into Bohemian today to discuss the menu. There is a bit of variety and they will be tasting plates for all to share. The restaurant is not BYO, and it will be pay as you go over the bar. Dinner is $55 and I have confirmed it does include the donuts!

And yes, they do take AMEX.

I am in discussion with HSW about the exec lounge, so can anyone who is Gold/Diamond and not noted as such on the attendance list further up thread please let me know ASAP.

I really think you have missed your calling as a party planner Jessicatam. Looking forward to the night.

I am gold with hilton

But, I am a Diamond Guest.

If I decide to come, will they give me a good room or a shoebox?

There are some spare seats for dinner. Would any of the 'Golds' like to put in for an upgrade? I can pretty well guarantee success.

I believe that samiam is also Gold, but he and Lawless will just show up on the day when blackcat20 texts them

Any sign of a Hilton "Thankyou" sale this year?

I did just get an email from Hilton, but it was just a "Summer Destinations" email

I can't guarantee them HSW lounge access, and I need to confirm numbers at Bohemian next Monday so you better crack the whip!

Hi Jessica, Could you please include me as a definite starter for this event. Will be staying at HSW, and also wish to attend the dinner at Bohemian.
Thanks, Richard.

Welcome aboard. Will do.
