UK Meet Up

Post by Lord Zarak »

Now I have no real work or university ties, does anyone fancy a meet up somewhere central?

Thinkin Brum, as Manchester would be too far for the (lazy :p ) Southerners to come, ditto (for meself...taking the piss out of meself just to appease you Southerners) for us Northern Folk.

I've wanted to come to previous ones in the past, but with being at Uni means a generally distinct lack of fundage, and missing out on drunken debauchery. I also wanna satisfy my curiosity to see if yer all like in person as you are on the board here.

Rambling now, so will shut up.

I think that's the scariest thing I've ever read on this board.

I'd come, except I'm on the pacific side of the United States.

Love to meet you all though...

Brum would be fantastic as I live next door. :)

I've been to a few Doctor Who meets in brum over the last year or so and they're allways good fun- Peeps traveling from outta town all staying in the same hotel and drinking the bar dry sortta thing.

The way the Who thing worked was that one person would bassically take charge, sorting out the date, suggesting hotels and a first pub to meet, geting everyone's number etc, just being a central orgonising point really. I'm not up for that role as I'm terminally lazy, but I'll happily offer advice for whomever wants the job.

Same for me. Unfortunately, weekends are out at the moment- but I'd like to meet some of the nutjobs that occupy this board.

I'd be up for it provided the date is good for me.

I'd prefer Manchester to Brum because a) It's a great party city and b) it's actually cheeper to get to from London :wtf:

Saying that I've never been to either so I'm not talking from experience.

I'm only coming if the meet-up takes place in the pub over the road. I can't take time off from work because everyone else is a useless tosser (no offence, Maltby).

Who says we want you anyway?

Manchester would be little good for me, but we go with the majority vote I suppose.

Thats a bit of a shocker tbh.

More travel, more fuel etc.

Still, I'm happy with either. Mancland would be better for me as I'm already here, but I dont wanna be a selfish little sod is all.

Only if you look like Cheryl Tweedy.


In which case- Yes please do come. In every sense.

Z- The best thing to do is make a defining statement like "It'll happen on day X at location Y"- You can allways shift it around a bit for peoples convinience if needed but a date as early as possible gives you a good rough idea of how many are able to come.

Could we invite her to the meet? I'm sure she likes Transformers, or at least Scattershot...
