The 110th Episode : European distributors meeting

Blue Mediterranean Sea and white beach (Barcelona)

 

[Marhc, 1998 Barcelona, Spain]

 

     After the exhibition, I flew from Hanover to Barcelona, Spain.  We were going to take place a ‘European distributors meeting’ inviting 1 or 2 persons from each distributor.  The most of the sales of our company was shared in the European market.  The meeting was held in Paris a year before.  Some distributors visit CeBIT, that was why we set it up at this time.  The name was European meeting but anybody could join because the expenses were on their own.

 

     Distributors from Argentina and South Africa joined.  We could not have such a meeting in those region as there were not so many and big ones.  Attendants were about 30 and a little more people.  I was given a big role at this meeting, appointed to the MC.

 

     The flight to Barcelona was favourable without any trouble.  I was looking at the blue Mediterranean Sea comfortably in the fine weather.  The aircraft was losing the altitude little by little.  The view of the streets at the right angles were approaching and found the round tanks like petrochemical complex.  Hello Barcelona again! We would be landing soon.

 

     It was Toni as ever that picked me up at the airport.

Hola Toni de nuevo.  ¿cómo estás mi amigo? (= Hello again, Toni.  How are you, my friend?)
