hi, just wondering if we should pay anything for this meet-up?

Hi @KarenC ,

Just curious, what is so special about this Industrial Complex such that you selected it as the target of the Map Edit Meet-up?

Hey! No fees, just your own transportation and shopping/food spending if you run into something you want to buy! Maybe nearer the time we can choose where to have a group lunch or coffee on the day. @JessieC

Hiya! I couldn’t choose a more general area, but I meant it as the general direction in which we will discover the area and map-edit. There are many small local buisnesses hidden inside KT’s industrial building, for example concept stores, cafes and restaurants.

Hi @KarenC ,

Just a small hint using Connect Forum. When you are replying to a specific LG, try mentioning them in the post by typing ‘@’ and then slowly typing their screen name.

LGs already in the conversation should be readily available to be choose from a pop-up list. For LGs not in the conversation yet, we might need to remove the characters and typing slowly a few times to have their name to get listed. Beaware of duplicate screen name, and the Profile picture is very help to identify the correct LG to be mentioned.

Please feel free to ask any question that you might have while hosting the event. LGs here are more than happy to help us.

Thanks @YK1001 !

Wow, haven’t joined the meet up before!

Hi everyone, I just wanted to reach out and double confirm the attendance for the event. Please could you email me your number so I can create a whatsapp group for the day, because I am no expert of the area, just wanted to hold an event to explore the stores and cafes together. We can discuss how the event runs together.

My email is helloabella (at) gmail.com

Hi everyone, I’ve only received email from one person. If I’m not able to connect with everyone beforehand, the meet up may not go ahead as it will be very difficult to organize. PLEASE get in touch by WEDS 11pm, otherwise I will have to cancel it. Thank you :slight_smile:

@KarenC . Emailed you my contacts. Will you and others be meeting at the MTR station, before heading to the meeting point ?

Thanks

@KarenC . Don’t be upset. Happens that some will just gatecrash with their friends. If you are still keen, for the sake of 2 tourist from Singapore, we can still meet. ^-^
