First of all, Happy New Year to everyone and may I take this opportunity to wish you all the best with great healthy throughout the year 2011.
We, the ThaiPaneristi community had a chance to gather up on December 26th for shilling after Christmas Eve. We initially planned to meet among 10-15 people but we thought it would be a better chance getting to know more new members,,,,,so we spreaded out the news and it turned out to be another BIG gathering that we would love to share and write it down to our book.
The venue was Wine Pub, The Pullman King Power Hotel
The environment inside before members getting in
This guy might get lost from somewhere, luckily he had his visa stamped and no need to send him back to his home sweet home too soon. Welcome back chief!
He also brought the Hammer and SoCal gang along
Ready for registration
Men at registration point, I dont think so! What about these 2 ladies
Great work! And thanks to Ping (aka thekop1968) who really gave us a big hand arranging so many things

introducing the team.........
Rotag had something to say ........
and two of our special guests, thanks for coming. By the way, Kev will be in BKK for quite a while so you guys will be able to join his Corona gang if you have chance to stop by.
Officially announcement that drew tons of attentions!
And some table shots
Kevin made the count but finally gave up as he had too much Coronas. . . . LoL
Everyone got excited of the pic in front of them
There were 105 Panerais on the table, what a stunning number eventhough it was far from the number we had few years ago. Well, the gathering was not about how many watches you can bring, but the hearts of same passion together is the core of the event. These following pics will probably better describe what I try to say. . . . . . . . .
Thats should be all for my report. Thank you very much for all pics contributed by PAMMAN, KIWI, and CHRONOS. . . . . you guys really make my job more ease. Also, thanks to all members who came and joined the evening. . . . . . without you guys, we wouldnt have community so fulfilled and completed. THANK YOU all!!
