[council] Arrangements for Sat night Council dinner

[<Mary.Wong@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello everyone - the restaurant needs a head count to reserve tables for us - 
can you do me a favor and check (below) to see that I've got your name down in 
the correct (yes/no) place? 
 
As mentioned, the dinner will be on Saturday night, at 8.30 p.m. It will be at 
a restored historic townhouse in one of the older parts of Singapore, and will 
feature Peranakan (also known as Nonya or Straits-Chinese) food. It's a cuisine 
unique to the British Straits Settlements colonies of Singapore/Malacca/Penang, 
as it is the result of intermarriage between the immigrant Chinese and the 
native Malays: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peranakan_cuisine. Although the 
restaurant itself is simple, the food is authentic and good :)
 
Total cost (including food, non-alcoholic beverages and van transport to/from 
the venue, which is about 10 minutes' drive away from the Convention Center): 
S$63 (US$50). Please bring this amount (in either Singapore or US dollars) to 
the Council working lunch session on Saturday, for collection by Glen and me, 
as the restaurant cannot do individual checks. A separate check will be made 
out for alcohol (beer and wine) ordered at the restaurant, so bring some extra 
cash to dinner if you're planning to drink something other than juices and 
sodas :)
 
- YES: Jeff, Alan, John, Wolf, Bill, Olga, Stephane, Ching, Debbie, Wendy, 
Rosemary (?), Jonathan, Kristina, Carlos, Adrian, me, Glen, Margie, Liz, Julie, 
Marika, Gisella, David O., Rob
 
- NO (sorry, guys): David T., Rafik, Kurt 
 
- For those who haven't yet responded to the Doodle poll, would you mind 
shooting me a quick email to say yea or nay?
 
Thanks everyone! Safe travels, and see you all in a few days!
 
Cheers
Mary
