NM Get Together Precha or UD Plaza

PostAuthor: PopsIcafe » January 5, 2009, 6:59 am

It was asked to have a poll to see if we should change the location of the NM Get Together. So it's all up to guys, is it Precha (where we meet now every 1st Saturday of the month) or the new place UD Plaza. If you are not sure of your vote, check out both places.

Feb. meeting at UD, and then make decision.

Pakawala, is that better.....thanks for the help....it was meant to be for the next meeting.

I also think we should hold the next get together at the UD Plaza as it will a new fresh scene to the NM Get Together. I'm pretty sure that most of you will like it.

I like the familiarity of the present area,but I don't see any reason not to test the new area.As long as we are on the same page!What about parking,is it better?

Stan brought up a very important point it parking many of us travel by car so it important to make sure we have adequate parking I also suggested in the N/M thread about having two meets a month and since there is 5 saturdays in Jan why not give it a try like the 17 of Jan just idea to kick around

They have good parking there, cars and motorbikes. The only problem I would see it the traffic around, 6:30 pm and 7:00 pm, gets heavy at the (red light)intersection. You will also notice that there has been some more ground breaking there....not sure what it means but can imagine.

Good idea. There are a significant number of expats who do not come on the 1st Sat., because it is the most crowded day of the month; payday, weekend, etc.

excellent point, possible consideration of moving to 2nd saturday of the month, as usually falls before mid month payday period.

There's parking around the UD perimeter. However, it's difficult to find parking between UD and Center point and opposite Green Lief. Plenty of parking in the area behind stage and opposite end of Center Point (between UD and the lot for new mall).

Those members who are fortunate enough to still have legs which function might consider using the car park (bombsite might be a more apt description) opposite "Fuzzy Ken's" and walking - there always seems to be plenty of room there (however I'm not sure how secure it might be).

Don't think anyone has considered there is absolutely no cover from the elements at UD. If it rains, YOU WILL GET WET, and after next month, the rains, hopefully, will start again.Another point to consider for those that like to eat as well as drink. The main beer area , near the stage, does not serve food. For that you have to sit in the area near the toilets, where you can have both. Also for footie lovers, no big screen.
However the live entertainment is better than the karaoke movies. 8)
