27dinner - A room full of greatness and good times…

The Jozi 27dinner was simply friggin’ amazing! Me and Feisty Bev got on the big bird and migrated north for one evening of great fun. Although badly powered by Eskom, it was a huge success! It was also the very first time the four Afriguys (credit: Nic) were together in one room all to announce the new beta release of Afrigator.

Mike, Justin, me and Mark. It was great seeing you all and specially meeting Mark for the first time! The Afrigator ride is probably one of the best.

It was simply awesome to have met all my online heroes finally. Vincent Maher, Nic Haralambous, Charl Norman, Simone Puterman, Eve D, Craig Nichols, Gregor Rohrig, Carly Ritz, Paul Jacobson, Tyler Reed, Armand du Plessis, Wezzo, Roger Saner, Carl Spies, Darren Gorton, to name but a few! You guys are all giants and a truly amazing bunch of individuals. It was a great privilege to share some of Stormhoek’s finest wine with all of you!

Funny thing was when Vincent was trying to poke out his mind’s eye after looking into some serious crack… Groogle did us all the favor to capture the moment and forever cementing it into our minds.

Special thanx to Nic for picking up my dinner bill! I really appreciate it and next time its on me! Once again, thank you Stormhoek for the talk lube. Must say, I love this social networking, Web2.0 style, offline. I’ll be there again!
