Come together, right now, over me!
…or something.
OK, so Isis and I (actually, Isis hasn’t done all that much thus far, lazy bum) are organising a meet-up, henceforth to be known as “the meat-up”, for MT forum and forum-m dwellers alike. There’s a thread on it over here which is the best way to add your input, really.
So far we have ascertained roughly where various people live, and held a shoddy vote as to the location, in which the fair city of London emerged victorious (bah). We still need to decide two key things though:
1) the date
2) what we’ll actually do there
First, the date. The easter holidays for schools (hello kiddies!) are the 24th of March to the 11th of April, and uni holidays will doubtless overlap there as well, so I’m thinking then. It also really needs to be a weekend, simply because we’re not all schoolkids, and at least half of us have jobs. We’ve got three possible weekends in the school holidays: the 26th/27th of March, the 2nd/3rd of April and the 9th/10th of April. The first one is too soon to be getting cheap train tickets for (not to mention being the Easter weekend, which you should spend with your families!), so that’s out, so we’re left with the 1st two weekends in April, basically. I’d rather do it Saturday too, since trains are more regular then, but that’s open to debate too. Now, let’s vote, fuckers!
Now, what we’ll do when we get there. Well, London has good shopping, and I for one intend to spend at least a little while drooling over stuff in the Apple store (especially if Tiger’s out by then, mmmmmmm), although I feel the plan should eventually involve finding a pub and drinking some stout. Hmmmm, any good films going to be out in April? Any good bands playing in London? I’m open to suggestions, people!
So yeah, get in the thread, or on IRC or MSN and lemme know what dates you can make and what you want to do!
PS: I made the nav bar into an iframe, is it not now even sexier?
