It is my belief that it takes a lot of work and input from the organiser to organise a good meet which is why its just best that a date is suggested and then people know if they can make it or not. Sometimes there's a good turnout sometimes not. But hey there's always another meet around the corner.
I wish you the best of luck in organising a meet that meets everyones approval.

That is one impossible task, but good luck!

ITA with everything you said littleblackbag

Kat: get thee back to bed and get better soon!

Here's a joke that was sent me to liven up your day:

A woman and a man are involved in a car accident on a snowy, cold Monday morning; it's a bad one. Both of their cars are totally demolished, but amazingly neither of them is hurt. God works in mysterious ways.
After they crawl out of their cars, the man is yelling about women drivers.
The woman says, 'So, you're a man. That's interesting. I'm a woman. Wow, just look at our cars! There's nothing left, but we're unhurt. This must be a sign from God that we should be friends and live in peace for the rest of our days.'
Flattered, the man replies, 'Oh yes, I agree completely, this must be a sign from God! But you're still at fault...women shouldn't be allowed to drive.'
The woman continues, 'And look at this, here's another miracle. My car
is completely demolished but this bottle of wine didn't break. Surely God wants us to drink this wine and celebrate our good fortune.' She hands the bottle to the man.
The man nods his head in agreement, opens it and drinks half the bottle and then hands it back to the woman.
The woman takes the bottle, puts the cap back on and hands it back to the man.
The man asks, 'Aren't you having any?'
The woman replies, 'No. I think I'll just wait for the police...'

H meets are supposed to be fun, in the past they were fun, now is the time to once again just have fun.

Even if 2 people turn up, so what??? A meet is a meet.

Other people around the world meet up with ease.

Other members want to help plan a meet because it is a lot of work for 1 person to take on, that I feel is a good idea.

There have always been lovely meetings in the past, at least the ones I´ve been to, organized by mooks

Anybody is free to organize a meeting, all you do is set a date, start a thread, and voila! People who can will post on the thread, those who cannot may be able to make the next one.

Who wants some tea?

UFC · Oct 22nd, 2009, 09:04 AM

Hypoxia: that's a wonderful pic of a lovely cup of tea. Anything stronger?

UFC · Oct 22nd, 2009, 09:05 AM

UFC I am hoping to get down next Friday anyone fancy a cuppa at Fortnums or Royal Academy??

Sammyjoe · Oct 22nd, 2009, 11:45 AM

Thanks Ardneish and Hypoxia.

Maybe we could consider the 28th Nov as a possible date? A lovely member here suggested the date has a possible to throw into the mix. If we give enough notice perhaps our northern friends would like to partake!!

UFC · Oct 22nd, 2009, 11:47 AM

HCUK: I shall see you at your Spring meet in London if not sooner. Have fun in Manchester.

Ardneish: I shall see you next Friday for a cuppa at Fortnums or Royal Academy. Your choice. Just PM me with time and place.

Sammyjoe: Put me down for the pre-Xmas London meet with Ardneish also. That means you'd better get started organising one and posting a the thread.

Hypoxia: when am I seeing you???

hermeschicuk · Oct 22nd, 2009, 11:48 AM
