Date and time are tentative Oct 9, 2013

Fed up with not being able to attend any Christmas work events because you're freelance? I am. Would be great to meet up with local colleagues. The new Harvester restaurant in Whiteley (junction 9 off M27) is offering a deal, £11.99 for two courses or £14.99 for three. This ideally needs to be booked before 25 October and the restaurant requires a non-refundable deposit of £5 per person.

attend Oct 31, 2013

Hi, Nikki. Am I too late to join this Powwow? I'm an Applied Languages student at the University of Portsmouth studying French and Spanish. I have been volunteering as a translator and would like to work as a translator when I graduate so would love to meet some established translators, to hear about their experiences.

Not too late to sign up Nov 1, 2013

I'm hoping more people will want to join us and then we can pick a date and even a venue to suit us all. It would be very interesting to hear what the course is like at uni these days too.

Best regards,

Nikki

Still going ahead? Nov 27, 2013

So the 4th is this time next week. Is it still going ahead? I'd still be interested in meeting up for this powwow, despite the low turnout.

Not sure if still going ahead Nov 30, 2013

I live in Whiteley, so it's not far for me to travel. But it seems a shame to go ahead if there are so few of us. Perhaps we could schedule meeting up for a later date to improve numbers?

Today is cancelled Dec 4, 2013

Hi everyone, as I might have problems making it this evening as well, I think we should cancel today and find another date for a get-together. Any suggestions?
