I’ve had over 25 bookings for the roast dinner tonight so 623 are opening up the upstairs for us – there is plenty of room for anyone else who would like to join us for a yummy $10 roast meal before networking begins.

I hope you’ve had a fabulous day and spoiled yourself in some way for Valentine’s Day.

If you’re feeling a little lonely, don’t compare yourself to other people. If you’re the type who imagines others secretly pointing at you and laughing at your single status, you’re spending way too much time measuring yourself against supposedly happy, snuggling couples. Remember: just because a person is partnered up on V-Day doesn’t necessarily mean that he or she is blissed out (or even remotely contented).

I know several people from the last Duck Soup Networking Night arranged to go out for a singles dinner together tonight – I hope you all had an entertaining evening. You’ll have to tell us all about it next time we meet up at 623 In The City on the first Sunday of March from 7.30pm.

Meet at 623 In The City on Hardy Street for a night of mingling and meeting new friends. If you come alone, you’ll be given a name tag and an introduction to someone new to chat to…. then there will be opportunity to mix and mingle with everyone else. Don’t forget to bring your complimentary beer or wine voucher from last month and let me know if you’re interested in coming along…

Our first networking night at new venue 623 In The City was amazing! From the delicious nibbles they served to the spacious mingling area – even the smokers outside were delighted with the extra coverage. We had some winners in our famous couples matching game and 4 people went home with a $10 Thai Tuesday meal voucher each. Thanks to Kayne for hosting us so beautifully in January – see you on Sunday 7 February.

I hope your Christmas was enjoyable and you’ve connected with friends & family. Now it’s time to celebrate a brand new year with lots of possibilities and potential. One of your resolutions might be to put effort into expanding your social life and building new friendships. Once a month you can come along to Duck Soup and meet lots of new and interesting people celebrating being single just like you.

If you attended our Christmas networking night in December, you will have a voucher card for a free wine or beer at 623 In The City. Bring it along and check out the NEW and IMPROVED Duck Soup experience this Sunday 3 January from 7.30pm – hopefully you’ve recovered after your New Year’s Eve – and I hope you have a great one!

We have changed venue to 623 In The City on Hardy Street (the old Sports Cafe at 223 Hardy Street). Join us at our new venue for Duck Soup in 2010:

Thanks for an awesome time last night at Dusk Till Dawn. Over 170 singles (I stopped counting when I sat down for dinner…) grooving to the Nelson pulse on a Saturday night. Congratulations to our hosts The Free House, When In Rome, The Vic & Zatori where the welcome was warm and the drinks & food were delicious. I hope our out-of-town guests had a blast and will be back sooooon!

Drinks & Dinner, Dancing & Dessert
Please schedule a BIG NIGHT OUT on Saturday 14 November when Duck Soup is combining with FindSomeone.co.nz for a Singles Dusk Till Dawn Party Night in Nelson. There are over 50 online dating singles coming to Nelson for the weekend from all over NZ.  On the evening of Saturday 14 November Duck Soup will celebrate being single with drinks, dinner, dancing & dessert from dusk till dawn at four different Nelson venues.

To participate, you are invited to register on Saturday 14 November between 5-7.30pm at the FreeHouse opposite the Indian Cafe on Collingwood Street.  This is the first drinks venue where you will collect your name tag and venue map showing where to walk to the other venues around Nelson.  You will receive a discount coupon towards a drink at the FreeHouse then a $20 special meal including a drink at brand new Italian restaurant When In Rome on Hardy Street for dinner.  There will be more drink specials at the Vic BrewBar at the top of Trafalgar Street while band Don’t Fret play – then a coffee & dessert treat for $10 at Zatori Chocolate Cafe on the Museum Corner.  There is NO CHARGE to participate – however, you will be required to wear your name tag to distinguish you as part of the Singles Group – which will also help us remember your name!
