Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
I just want to say thanks to Serpy for giving me an excuse to have a day out, and for making that day fun. Thanks too to Guy for driving us out to the cinema, and dropping me off after. It was lovely meeting you both and I hope to see you again in the future.

And just for that I'm going to . . . I'm going to . . . wear a Star Trek t-shirt? Don't really work does it.
Eh, seeing as I'm here. I posted a review of one of my birthday presents in the Doctor Who thread. Go read.[/shameless plug]

Hardly got any photos in Bradford, but here are a couple of the two sides of a poster:

My main question is, what are we doing about the Main Meetup?

That and I'm continuing to hold that the meetup will be in Newcastle. I figure if I say it enough times eventually people might believe it's true.
Oh, I guess I could fill in the table of dates now, I'll see about that in a minute.
Also, since it is my bounden duty to continue plugging The Gondoliers, if anyone's interested in coming to see it, they should bear in mind that there will be not just one, but two young men dressed like this:

Taking the Archonic Energy approach are you (only using Newcastle in place of London)?

Southampton is good! Definitely southampton. Somewhere south anyway.

Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
Still poking for Leicester.
I believe I may be able to get a room for free through the Gamesoc here, and I can probably persuade a couple of the gamers who live in Leicester to come join us as well (and a few who go home over the summer to come back).
Travelodge and such is around, Leicester is not the worst place for driving, and the public transport is pretty darned good (buses EVERYWHERE). And as the Boardgames rep for my Gamesoc, I'll be able to get the keys to our games store for more games that we might not bring with us.

I still reckon the cottage idea is a great one.
'course, my opinion's likely to be moot anyways... :smallfrown:

Honestly, with sufficient warning I should be able to get nearly anywhere, but with family situation being roughly what it is, I don't think I could really host a meetup...

Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
Also still reckon it should be somewhere quite northwards to give Ku a break...

My first vote goes for here if its during term time as I have people I need to see in Leicester, and it would be a good excuse to do that.

If a cottage happened, it would be unlikely I could be there for the entire duration, but I'd pop along for a day or too

Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
I wouldn't really be able to afford anything further away from me than Newcastle. Which means I can go as far south as Darlington, if that helps any?

Well, if there's a meet happening southward, I'll still likely be attending, so the offer for a lift will stand.
If Cassie can get a free venue and access to additional games and stuff, I could possibly back Leicester as a venue, even if it's a trek and a half to get down there.
Probably, Leicester/Birmingham/Peterborough would be as far south as I'd be willing to travel (even if I did make it down to the London meet).
Anything further south is going to kill me financially.

Well, assuming I was able to travel outside of peaks on the railway, I could do that (I know I could fly, but I really don't like heights).

Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
Well, I could probably fly to Glasgow fairly cheaply from London...
Also, with regards to the April mini-meet in Cardiff, I might be able to attend if someone has a floor for me to crash on. My budget's a little tapped out for renting a hotel room. :smallsmile:

Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
There's a convention called Conpulsion Apocalypse in Edinburgh in just less than two weeks.
Any interest in a mini meet there?
-
Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
Look at this Serpy darling.
You come along on holiday and suddenly every week seems to be having a mini-meetup somewhere.
While I do approve, I also feel sad because I can't make hardly any of them. Also there need to be more further north so Ku can attend.
For this reason I throw my lot in with the Oop North crowd.

Haha! Oop North plans have the support of the southerliest UKitPer we know! And she's a Goddess to boot! We'll have this Newcastle meetup yet!

You didn't get one of Fold your flapping wings though. :smallfrown:

Re: UKitp 11 - Y'all should join us in the fun!
Pfff. Southerliest my curvy backside. :smalltongue:
We've got myself and Archie from London or Helio from Southampton (heck, her home town even has SOUTH in the name!). But I think the Southerliest Playgrounder is Lix from the cattle-haunted wilds of Daaarset and Summerrrset [/accent].

Nope! :smallbiggrin:
I live roughly ten miles from Land's End in Cornwall. AKA the most south-westerly point in the country. And the furthest south too.
I just go to uni in Oxford.
