dwdAfternoon.
intosiIndeed, it is.
dwdI don't suppose anyone's heard from Florian, have they?
intosiNot a single stanza.
dwdHmmm.
SimonHow long ago did you order the über?
Simonsometimes it can take a little longer for them to turn up.
dwdThe problem is that on Monday, he said he's sort the menu and coach for Saturday night. But I've not heard from him since.
dwdI've sent him a text or two, and tried calling.
dwdThat was bad typing. "He said he's sorting". In fact, would sort on Monday.
SimonNothing on his Twatter feed either.
dwdI'd stress that I am entirely confident in his abilities and dedication to The Cause. But I'm quite nervous.
SimonIs he at the Summit?
dwdis somewhere between Reading and Paddington.
dwdNo... He said he'd booked a flight coming in on Friday evening.
SimonI know he like his non-federated social networks: You could try twitter DMing him. /me goes to wash.
dwdI'm tempted to call him from a different mobile number in case he's seriously in hiding. :-)
dwdSimon, I don't know how.
Tobiashehe
SimonLet me see if I have Twatter installed.
SimonI'll ping him to ping you.

dwdThat'd be good.
dwdNot that I have anything but total confidence in him, you understand.
intosiWe understand. It's the Deus ex Machina part you don't like.
SimonPinged. I'll let you know know if I see any movements online from him
intosiSimon: ta
dwdThe only other alternative I can see is to contact the restaurant directly; I'd need to beg help from a Dutch-speaker for that I think. (Their website is in Dutch, at least).
dwdAnd as for the coach, I assume that we could source one.
intosidwd: give him a while to see if he responds to the DM.
intosiI'm sure one of the Dutch speaking guys in the XSF can make a few phone calls if need should arise (say, tonight.)

intosiBoth ralphm and I are quite busy packing things for BRU.

Dave CridlandI'm waiting for Eurostar. Nobody else here yet as far as I know.
Dave CridlandMattJ's on his way, though. I stop to look under every hat.
hildjjDave, were we supposed to meet you at St. Pancras?
ralphmHmm, Brussels has a large park near the University
ralphmMaybe we should tag MattJ
Simondwd: rather than lifting everyone's hats, just look for a dad.
Dave CridlandIan's not coming.
SimonThat's it. I'm cancelling.
Dave CridlandIt has, I feel, rather spoilt the point.
Dave CridlandThere is someone who looks almost exactly like PSA here.
