Maryam and I are really getting excited. On November 23 we’re going to Wales for Thanksgiving with her brother. Then over to Cork (more info on the conference I’m speaking at here), Ireland. Then to Dublin, where I’m talking to a .NET User Group. Then to Paris for Les Blogs 2.0. Then to Brussels to meet with another user group. Then back to London for a geek dinner with Hugh Macleod and more than 100 others and I’m going to try to get to the Global Voices 2005 London Summit on the 10th too. There’s a bunch of other things I’ll be doing in between these events too. Doing some Channel 9 videos, and getting around to meet many of Microsoft’s employees.
Les Blogs is looking like a great conference. I’ve never been to Paris. It’s one of the things I’ve always wanted to do. I hope to meet you at one of these events! Oh, and it’s looking like I’ll get to Switzerland in February, and India next summer. Maryam wanted to take me to Iran this trip, but I couldn’t justify taking so much time away from the office.
What part of Wales will visiting? Am I right in saying that your brother-in-law lives in Newport? If so it’ll be interesting to see what you think of my home town. Will it be your first visit to Wales?

Somehow, when you mention a Euro trip, my mind thinks Clark W. Griswald…

I can’t believe I won’t be here
I was really looking forward to listening to you, live, in Paris. But I’m going to Brittany for two weeks the day before you get here, unfortunately (work not leisure).
I guess I won’t be getting my Channel 9 guy after all 😉 (c.f. halloween post)
Anyway, I hope Maryam and you will have a nice trip

Have fun in Europe. I will be in Italy during that time. Too bad you can’t make it to Rome.

I recommend going down to the Gower peninsula when you are in Wales - one of the most beautiful peninsulas in the world - great beaches, cliff tops, hills.
I’d also recommend going north of Newport to the Wye valley.
Enjoy.

How about adding a Schoble calender at Eventful?
Like mine here: http://eventful.com/users/brilliantdays
That way we can keep track of where you’re going to be? Or start using Plazes?

You can even get your own url, like Joi is doing:

Robert: I’d love to do a geek dinner in Newport. I also will need some place that has Wifi access and would love some ideas of things to do.
Laurent, I messed up. Switzerland.

When you’re in London, if you want an evening for just you and your wife (or a smallish group), it’s really worth trying the Cinnamon Club restaurant. Every visitor I’ve ever taken there from the US has had a fabulous time (more at: http://www.psynixis.com/blog/?p=50 ).
