I think it's time to declare for a date... and the majority (not just here, but in email to me and from my wife, who wants me around in March) say that it will be...

APRIL!

So... start saving your pennies, boys and girls. Meanwhile, I'll build out the information page on Ajax USA and alert the media.

Say it with me: Hortus, Hortus, Hortus, oy oy oy.

Seems fair there was definitely the majority who wanted it.
I won't be able to make it because of work commitments.
I hope you guys have a FANTASTIC time (as in the past).

Cheers.... :bier:

P.S. I'll probably be in A'dam for the P$V game March 12th anyway, if anyone wants to meet up.

Wish I could go -- I still have very fond memories of two years ago. Even if I didn't have a small child to look after, I'd still be nursing my knee, which is going to have to undergo an operation shortly to replace my ruptured ACL. X'C I look forward to hearing from all how it goes.

Well, that's so generous...don't you mean she let you go to the football because there was a big cinema she could go to? :D ;)

Actually, Jim or Menno are you able to make any assumptions as to the dates of the ArenA Day and Ajax History Tour. I know the ajax-usa site says TBD, but when I am travelling 27 Hours or so to make the trip, it will have a big impact on what day I leave and this in turn will have an impact on getting my leave approved.

Would it be safe to assume it would be b/w the first game on Sunday and the second game on Wed night?

Cheers guys.

Hi Guys, I have been remiss, not visiting the discussions much. I've had a LOT to deal with since New Years... but life goes on and it is very much time to begin thinking about Rendezvous.

Dan, awesome that you'll make it again. And finally we will have Per. I have a funny feeling this will be a memorable year... Not bringing the young fellas this year, so maybe I can have a beer or two after hours.

Holycrap! Thats a massive pool you have in your yard Jim :D . Actually this is something the US and Australia have in common...fire and floods. Luckily no-one hurt.

Cheers mate. Really looking forward to this year as well. Be great to catch up with the guys and meet some new ones as well. Can't really afford it, but hey thats what credit is for isn't it? :blush:

I booked my room three months ago. Single one. I would have helped him save 10 bucks with great pleasure though.
