: New Mini Cooper Owners From The Philippines TWEETY Sep 7th, 2005, 08:18 AM Derrick, Guys,
Pare I have a shoot with Dominic V at 10 am in the house and it might really be tight. If we can change the venue to Eastwood or anywhere near ortigas, I will be able to make it. I have not been present for the past EBs and would really want to go. The agenda is good as we really have to get organized so we can bring in more members to our group. Pero if its a big hassle to change venue, will just attend the next one.

Yup , so far just me and Van, Southwoods and Sta. Elena, are our home course respectively. BTW, just made my first hole in one last August 16,2005. Legends hole #12, 176 yards, 6 iron Titleist 1.
We should have a round of golf. Can either of you play mid-week?

Something Fishy at Eastwood has breakfast buffet for 80 PESOS up to 10 AM, excluding coffee & drinks.
Let me know what the group decides ASAP.

YEY! hehe MC CVT Sep 9th, 2005, 02:07 AM Everyone,
Since C! Magazine has not confirmed until now, and we discovered that Eastwood has a lockout thing pala with Rev Magazine (when I told them C! might come, they kinda balked), I agreed na lang for Rev Magazine to cover our EB this Sunday, if you won't mind.
Either way, we will have a photo-shoot this Sunday and a possible feature in the magazine. So get your MINIs clean and sparkling.
Next time naman when we go to Greenfields we will have C! Magazine. Now how's that for publicity? pachichay Sep 9th, 2005, 05:51 AM that is so cool! :D buffy123 Sep 9th, 2005, 06:53 AM so sorry for the late reply guys. i've been so busy lately. i'll try my best to make it to eastwood. i'll set my alarm so that i can wake up. hahaha! i asked my cousin if he wants to join (he has a green cooper s). he's going to try as well.
did i get the info right? it's 7 to 10am in eastwood?
c u guys! | |
