What a night! I think that most of us 'regulars' would agree that last Friday's FND at the Evropa was a step into new territory. We filled up the spacious hall quite well with a record turnout of over 140 FNDers, and the consensus seemed to be that the location was just about perfect! As usual, we've got some photos of the evening up on the FND Photo Blog, so if you weren't there this weekend, check out the fun you missed!
The food on Friday was excellent, so we would like to give special thanks to Adin at Newspaper Direct for sponsoring the evening, as well as the Evropa restaurant, which co-sponsored the buffet dinner. For anyone who is unfamiliar with Newspaper Direct, they offer same-day delivery of hundreds of major newspapers from around the world. Check their website or contact them by email for more details.
Thanks again and a big farewell to Juan Roque, who was generous enough to sponsor 50 free drinks on Friday -- we wish him well at his new assignment in North Carolina. Also, congrats to Frank for winning a free bottle of Movia wine as well as Leonardo for winning a bottle of Tullamore Dew Irish whiskey (didn't he also win a bottle of Irish whiskey at last year's St. Patrick's day FND???).
The following night, on Saturday, March 17, a number of FNDers also showed up for Joan McIntyre's annual St. Patrick's day party at the Emonska klet, and as usual it was a wild and crazy evening. Too bad it only happens once a year!
Jim and I hope to see you all again at next month's FND. Further details will be available on the website and also in our email invitation. Remember to send us contact info for any of your friends who would like to be on the mailing list. See you in April!

Reminder, St' Patrick's day FND this Friday
Don't forget to schedule this Friday, March 16th on your calendar. We will be having a special pre-St. Patrick's day Friday Night Drinks event, starting at 8:00pm, complete with a free buffet-style dinner and welcome drink for everyone, thanks to our newest sponsor, the Newspaper Direct company. We'll be meeting this time at the Evropa cafe & restaurant at Slovenska 47 in Ljubljana (on the corner with Gosposvetska), which is also co-sponsoring the food.
Also this month, one our fellow FNDers, Juan Roque (who many of you may also know from events at the Marine house in Ljubljana) will be leaving us unfortunately, but as a bon voyage toast he has promised to sponsor a round or two of shots or mixed drinks for his fellow FND friends. And in honor of St. P's day, Jim and I will sponsor a free bottle of Irish Whiskey for one of our lucky guests, as well as other prizes.
Jim and I both look forward to seeing everyone on Friday. Remember to invite your friends and wear something green, since St. Patty's day starts at Midnight!
