- "Allright heroes, we should work on another NY event."
- "Wasn't it normally scheduled for Friday, January 17?"
- "Uhu, that third Friday of January seemed like an ideal moment in past years. Unfortunately, we didn't get there with the organisation."
- "Anyway, the non-event on that 17th passed silently, thankfully. Nobody noticed."
- "Ha yes, it's not like the majority of colleagues remembered that date - which was announced once a year ago in a newsletter. Let alone spontaneously put that date in their own agendas."
(hilarity all around)
- "What do we do? Usual formula: reception, dinner, party? I know of colleagues who do fancy another good celebration."
- "That has been top-notch in past years, but requires some preparation from us. And we already have a lot of balls to hold high these days."
-
(fidgeting on chin) "Hmm, balls."
- "Pff, difficult. We don't have much inspiration. Shall we split into groups to think about further?"
-
(fidgeting more heavily on chin) "Hmm, split."
- "Or do we look for an event or activity for which we have to do less ourselves? By the way, what are you eating? Looks good."
- "Veggie Asian bowl. Not bad."
-
(fidgeting more fiercely on chin) "Hmm, bowl."
(sunlight breaks through clouds, angelic sounds rises)
- "Wait wait a minute. How about we go bowling?"
- ‘’Yeah, great idea!"
- "At O'Learys at Dok Noord you can do that in large group. With food included."
- "Ideal. We reserve a number of lanes. One lane is one team. Highest total lane score wins."
- "Top! Let's say from 5pm-5.30pm at O'Learys, hour of bowling from 6pm and then dinner at 7pm. And who still feels like it after that, you can also do karaoke there or there might be a party nearby at Amigo."
- "Suggested date?"
- "Friday February 28?"
- "Yes!"
- "And we need to pass on the number of lanes and eaters soon, so everyone must register
(shows life-size QR code) via
this link. Don't think, decide quickly by Monday February 3."
- "Perfect! So is it even worth talking about a NY event if it takes place at the end of February?"
- "Yeah, with the right spin we can get that sold. Genre: ‘To a striking 2025!’ Something like that."
- "Bingo, that's settled then!"
