&lt;p&gt;Perhaps we could even have a same-evening rolling event starting here in Melbourne and culminating somewhere in North America?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Another forum I belong to has a virtual Christmas party that lasts a week to allow everyone to participate; it is a hilarious process because a place is chosen (e.g. the Ice Hotel), participants arrive with by obscure means (e.g. I will carve a sleigh out of by BV8 packaging and have it pulled by kangaroos, Peter might choose to paddle across the North Sea in a canoe from B&amp;amp;O spare parts), and bring a guest (I have already lined up Nicole Kidman thank you very much!) ... and inevitably disasters and fun occur (&amp;quot;Ice Hotel lobby melts due to heat output and weight of a massed surround sound choir of 13 BeoLab 5s&amp;quot;)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Any takers for either of my ideas?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>The BeoWorld Christmas Party!</title><link>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/230041.aspx</link><pubDate>Sun, 04 Oct 2009 07:16:30 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:230041</guid><dc:creator>9 LEE</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/230041.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&amp;PostID=230041</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;Well the nights are getting darker, the leaves are going golden and the keener shops are now starting to covertly stash &amp;#39;Christmas Items&amp;#39; on their shelves.. &amp;nbsp;Yes, that time is approaching. &amp;nbsp;&amp;#39;Humbug&amp;#39; you say, but at least we get to eat drink and be merry!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Like any Christmas Party venue - the best ones are always booked up well in advance. &amp;nbsp;No exception with this years venue - the Grand Hotel in Eastbourne, which we book 2 years in advance such is the demand for places there! For the record, i booked the Christmas 2010 party in July!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anyway - &amp;nbsp;for this year we pre-booked 30 places, around 16 of which are already gone - so we are looking at 14 more spaces available, with a possibility of around 6 more if demand is high - i&amp;#39;ll see what i can wangle should the need arise..&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The date is &lt;strong&gt;Saturday December 12th 2009&lt;/strong&gt; - not too near Christmas Day, but still near enough to be right in the Christmas spirit!!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The venue, as mentioned, is the &lt;a href="http://www.grandeastbourne.com/" title="Grand Eastbourne"&gt;Grand Hotel&amp;nbsp;Eastbourne&lt;/a&gt; - a stunning Luxury 5-Star venue in Eastbourne, East Sussex (well, we do deserve the best after all) offering the very best in accomodation, dining and local attractions. Fresh sea air, great company and a magnificent venue - what more could one ask for? &amp;nbsp;It&amp;#39;s a &amp;#39;Black Tie&amp;#39; affair, so dust off the Tuxedo and celebrate Christmas with your online friends!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Grand Hotel Christmas Party Night costs &amp;pound;48 for a 4-course dinner, and wine is available for pre-order or purchase on the night. You will also have access to a discounted room rate if you&amp;#39;re staying at the hotel for the night, which we would certainly recommend!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Full menu details and times can be found on the link &lt;a href="http://www.grandeastbourne.com/christmas-party-nights.html" title="Party Night"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt; - so please feel free to peruse! &amp;nbsp;Special diets can of course be accomodated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, if you wish to purchase tickets, please go to the &lt;a href="http://www.beoworld.org/gifts.asp" title="Gift Shop"&gt;Gift Shop&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;(then scroll to the bottom of the page) where you can buy them online. Once you have purchased them, i will pay the Grand Hotel directly on your behalf but if you need a room you will need to book directly with the hotel. Do remember to quote the party night to receive your special room rate.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We sincerely look forward to meeting you! &amp;nbsp;The whole LifeStyle team will be there, as will the whole Firebrand team (including Van!) - so all we need is BeoWorld representation!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;See you there!&lt;/p&gt;
