27dinner Jozi Roundup

// July 29th, 2007 // Geek Dinners, Photos // 12,157 views

It’s good to be back in the swing of things. Last night’s 27dinner was just the thing I needed to take a break from the hectic work schedule and the recent palaver around some tests I had done (they came back clean and all is fine thanks).

As i was saying, last night’s 27dinner was a slighly low-key event, judging by the number of people and the evident lack of familiar faces in attendance. That being said, the July 27dinner Johannesburg held at the M&A in Sandton was still a decent networking event.

Of course, Victoire was by my side, and it was good to see Mike, Scott (great presentation a-la-Dick Hardt style), Lantz, Armand, Thea, Andre SC, Andre O, Craig, Nikki, Paul, Gina, Ivo, Duncan (from the clan McLeod), Tyler, Deshanta and all the others I chatted to. If I missed your name and/or I forgot to take a card I’m really sorry, my short-term memory is shot at the moment.

Another highlight for me was of course the fact that I had won a Sony DVD video camera, sponsored by Zoopy, and was supposed to receive it at the event. Mike unfortunately left it at home, but handed over a pack of writable DVDs in the meantime.

As per usual, I took a plethora of pictures and they can all be viewed on my flickr account, in the 27dinner July photoset. Additionally, as promised, I created some content for the guys and gals at Zoopy and you can check out a video montage of the 27dinner July pictures over at my profile. I have provided the video in the post, after the jump below.

Agreed…every time there’s one in CT, I’m not around. And my silly boss has failed to see the significance of me flying up to Jozi for one. Drat and damn!
