Hi everybody,
Since the days activities will end at ~3pm, I was thinking that we could
append a lab social. Possibilities include:
Coffee and pastries @ Olympia in Kalk bay, Fish & Chips at Kalkies, walk on
pier, cheeky pints @ Brass Bell.
Driving back along Chapman's Peak and hanging out at Hout Bay Harbour.
Whatever else you might come up with.
If you're interested in hanging out afterwards please indicate so on the
Wiki.
Thanks!
Thomas
