UK 'Poly Meet Jan/Feb/Mar 2003 Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

As the other thread got hijacked and fell faster than the pound on Black Wednesday I thought maybe it would be worth reviving this thread.

Initial concensus seemed to be towards either Bristol or Reading some time in February... preferably close enough to my birthday to ensure I don't have to buy a round.

The Aberystwyth open day. I can kill two birds with one stone. If we had a meet then I wouldn't even need to concern myself with the FU*KING INSANE train timetable because I could just get so drunk that waking up with a hangover having spent the night in the station might make sense.

( N.B - I decided against going to the one in October because to do so would have meant me spending three ****ing days there if I wanted to get the whole of the open day. The trains seem designed to thwart me. )

Well Paul, if you want to come and you hang around in Hull, there could well be a lift in it for you if you are nice to me

Yeah, Bristol in mid February is fine for me. If Mr Palme and Mr Hanson want to come they could give me a little bit of assistance with the petrol (I doubt it would be that much for all of us anyway...)

End,

Are you also planning something special? or just a meet? When I organized the Freeciv conference in Amsterdam I also organized a trip through the city and a visit to a musuem with some special exhibits.

P.S

Shouldn't this be in the community forum?

In the past we've all basically just met up in a pub just after midday and, er, stayed there.

Are you suggesting it should be in the Community forum for the right reasons, or because it would bring postcounts into play.

I can just imagine us all walking around looking for a museum in Reading.

When we did Leeds Provost, Buck et al got knackered just walking from one pub to the next.
