Brussels Girl Geek Dinner

Created with Admarket’s flickrSLiDR.

Last night during Brussels Girl Geek Dinner #6 we had three lucky winners of a Bongo voucher. But what is Bongo exactly?

A Bongo is an experience in a box. Each Bongo represents a specific theme, such as adrenaline pumping adventures, sultry gourmet dinners, relaxing spa weekends and luxurious stays in castle hotels. Over 40 different theme’s are available. Bongo’s make great gifts because the lucky receiver can pick their experience from a wide selection, of which each formula and setting is described in the booklet.

The Bongo voucher comes with the booklet in a nice looking box and can be purchased through www.bongo.be and in selected vending points.

Please give the lots of link love ladies.

In case of doubt, the exact location of tomorrow’s Brussels Girl Geek Dinner is:

Good news! With a little help from my geek friends I managed to get us all a well-filled goodie bag for you at Brussels Girl Geek Dinner #6 in Mechelen. More details later…

One item in the bag I couldn’t keep for myself any longer. It appears that the kind people of Belgian chocolate make Jacques read my cry for help and they agreed to put some delicious chocolate drops (see product page in Dutch and in French) in the mix. Quote:

A delicious dark chocolate in a microwavable bag for organising a fondue of fruits with chocolate – a contemporary and convivial dessert – or for topping a cake. Ideal for busy people who want to serve a fine dessert without spending hours preparing it. 3 minutes are enough to have a tasty melted chocolate.

Brussels Girl Geek Dinner #6 was sold out in a matter of days, and thanks to Stad Mechelen, Ann Laenen and Stefan Kolgen we’ll be able accomodate the 70-something geek ladies and visit the Anno Expo exhibition by night and for free. But I seem to have overlooked something of major importance: the goodie bag.

So here’s my plea: do you have either bags, samples, chocolate, giveaways, gadgets, or chocolate for the ladies, do drop a line in the comments.

(Chocolate would be nice.)
