Aww thats a shame Steff :( you and Hazel and Phoebe shd get brainstorming me thinks...go team North 🙂 x x x
 
As long as I'm not working I should be able to make it!

As Shelley says guys, this isn't a forum meet, but a Circle D event. I'm certainly looking forward to a Northern Forum Meet in late Spring probably. 🙂
 
To give credit where it's due, Steffie did actually beat me on overall distance travelled 🙂 I'd be up for another northern Forum event at some point, but I'm afraid it's not something I have the time to organise at the moment!

how about setting up a thread to get volunteers in each region to set up events? Make it more structured maybe? Then each region will be guaranteed a meet...and ppl can travel to whichever meets they want 🙂

I don't mind formulating a meet planner list of things to do or something to help?

Just brainstorming 🙂
 
i wish this group was for 16-30 :( oh well, next year i can come 🙂

hahah u shd know me by now!

reasons for earlyness:

Gives ppl something positive to think about just after new year
gives ppl plenty of warning
gives those from far away time to plan journeys and hopefully get cheap tickets

Anyways hope ur well and hope you can make it....lotsa love x x x
 
still considering venue....

Hmmmmm keen to get the 3yr venue locked down so can set up me event and get advertising 🙂

My top 3 - assuming I stick to wetherspoons are:

http://www.jdwetherspoon.co.uk/home/pubs/penderels-oak - in Holborn

http://www.jdwetherspoon.co.uk/home/pubs/the-lord-moon-of-the-mall - In Whitehall

http://www.jdwetherspoon.co.uk/home/pubs/the-ice-wharf - In Camden

I've only been to the Camden one and it has outside space, not sure if we will be blessed with lovely weather again this year though!

Decisions descisions!! x x x
 
spoons yay! moon under water lie cester square ain't bad although typically busy and central!

Whats the theme Shelly??

extreme ironing??
 
On a Saturday I'd have thought Holborn or Whitehall would be your best bet, Camden's great but can be quite a mission on a Saturday.

It's all in the diary so planning to be there!

woohooo 🙂

Yeah I know Aymes just love love love Camden 🙂 gonna go look at the whitehall one...im a bit picky with me venue hehe! x x x
 
Fair point, well made.

I'd vote for holborn, whitehall gets those random tourists seeing "the smoke" and H has bigger floor area, and generally more staff I think!?

Anyway your choice my dear as you is the guvnor'ess

I be there, I will (when is it?) may not be drinking though!!

Cheers

Rossi
