Well&#8230; we waited a bit longer than we expected because they got a flat tire! It was hard not to doze off while waiting. I&#8217;m not used to a big breakfast, but it was all so tasty&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/spacefold.com\/colin\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2004\/nov06_session1.jpg\" alt=\"The room\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Eventually they showed up and we drove down to the place where the VfpSig.nl user group was due to assemble. It was a nice long room with a desk and two long parallel tables with chairs at which the group members arranged themselves. We had a little LCD projector which worked fine after a little tweaking and setting up, and then we just got stuck into our sessions due to the late start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/spacefold.com\/colin\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2004\/nov06_session2.jpg\" alt=\"C, B, and L\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The sessions went well. I&#8217;ll say it again here: Thanks guys for putting up with a large amount of new material (some of it new to us, in that we hadn&#8217;t presented it before), and for allowing us to go later than planned, even though this meant missing out on some hands-on time that was on the schedule. Thanks to B for organizing it and for doing so much to make everything work out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Several members of the group took us out to dinner at a place called Restaurant Falstaff just down the road from the hotel. It was very crowded (quite a small room really) but truly wonderful food. I chose grilled smoked salmon. It was fantastic. I&#8217;m definitely eating too much. So far I still fit my pants though.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t know what it is about the Dutch.
