EDIT (July 12): The price will be 3 EUR, payment can be done when picking up your nametag and lanyard!

Hi,
I have accepted to make nametags for everyone attending any of the meetups or one of the concerts in Sligo. If you want me to prepare a nametag for you, please let me know so I can include you in my list. I will put the following information on your nametag (see example below): your forumname, your full name, the city and country you live in and (if you have one) your avatar from the forum.
Please send me your info either by replying on this thread, or by emailing your full details. Please use the following line to make things easier for me:

“forumname” – full name – city, country - attending 1,2,3,4,5
Eg: “Maarten” – Maarten Massa – Sint-Niklaas, Belgium - attending 1,2,3,4,5

If you do not want me to show your full details here on the forum (for privacy reasons), just email me your info and say so in your email. I will then only use your details on the nametag but not put them on the forumlist. If you're bringing your wife, husband, girlfriend, son, mother, teacher, doctor or whatever and he/she wants a nametag too: no problem! Just provide all the info for him/her too!

The nametags come with a specially designed lanyard/keycord, similar to those I had made for the Barcelona concert (see pic). Because these cost a bit of money, I will be charging around 3 or 4 EUR to pay for them. I will not be making any profit of this whatsoever, don’t worry. Payment can be done on the day itself (cash) at one of the meetups when picking up the nametag or by Paypal in advance (please ask for my Paypal account if you want to pay this way). The exact price will be set once I know how many lanyards we need (the more lanyards, the cheaper they get of course)
These are the meetups/plans for the weekend. Please include in your request for a nametag which gatherings you will attend (just to have an idea of the number of participants for each meetup. No need to officially subscribe for any of these, except perhaps dinner on Friday...)

1 = Friday, July 30: dinner (arrangements by CarlowMike - at 7.30pm in Shenanigans)
2 = Saturday, July 31: Meetup at the Library Bar of The Garavogue (15-16 Stephen Street, Sligo) from 10am - ...
3 = Saturday, July 31: First concert
4 = Sunday, August 1: Meetup at the Library Bar of The Garavogue (15-16 Stephen Street, Sligo) from 10am - ...
5 = Sunday, August 1: Second concert

I will update the second message of this thread regularly with the list of participants.

Please check the "Nametags for Barcelona" thread to see how it went for Barcelona:
viewtopic.php?f=35&t=15752
(we had lunch with about 120 forum members/husbands/wifes/relatives/...)

Any more questions: feel free to ask!


See you all soon,
Maarten

Maarten,

List on the second message updated!

I also changed the GBP into EUR in my first message (my mistake, sorry).
Some people have asked which payment method I prefer. I think it would be handy for me if you pay in advance through Paypal, but feel free to choose. I will put my paypal account name here as soon as I know the cost for a nametag + lanyard (I guess it'll be 3 EUR - it was only 2 EUR in Barcelona, but we had over 120 attendees there and I had 150 lanyards made which lowered the cost). If some of you would like to receive 2 (or even more?) lanyards: let me know. Each additional lanyard will cost as much as the first lanyard + nametag (the nametag itself doesn't cost much, except for my working hours, which are "free of charge" for the Leonard Cohen Forum ). No problem in having made an extra 20, 50 or 100 if I know in advance!

Also: please check your details on the second message! Any mistakes or updates: report them to me!

Maarten

Sorry no.6 was a bit wrong, the final attending should have been 2, 3

Driney, Christine Murphy, Dublin, Ireland, attending 2,3

Cheers!

Hi Maarten,
Just to point out that "Mutti" and I are sharing no.20 - she's there already at no 7 , so you probably meant to delete her from 20 !
Thanks,
Ann
