Southampton Meet June 2004

Since this thread started it's changed into a June 2004 Southampton Barbemeet thread, potentially to celebrate Jack the Bodiless' birthday. Maybe first weekend in June...

So how 'bout it? I'm sure we can rustle up crash space, and it'll probably only be as expensive as a night out in London, even if you take into account the train fare.

So this first post is just to register interest. More concrete plans to follow.

Sounds... possible... anyone interested?

Erm, if I have any money to actually, y'know, get there than this sounds like a nice idea and there are a few off-board people who I wouldn't mind seeing in the area.

Look at it this way. You can spend out on the train fare and offy and still not spend as much as you would for a night out in London. Makes sense, eh?

I should be doing a UK amble after I get this damnned dissertation out of the way and might be in your area (that is, in the south) aroundabout this time. I'll keep you posted. Oh and I expect the Southampton lot to come to Lithstock dammit

Pot.

I'm maybe there, 1st to 3rd May. Also, I think the BurningLith idea kinda grabs me. Wrong thread, I know.

Some of the London people mentioned there are Megabuses that go to Soton from London, so if you have time, but not much money, they would be the cheap way to go.

I expect I will be able to make it.

I thought the LithStock thing was happening more in the summer, as opposed to this which sounds sooner?

I should be able to make it - is there a Plan yet?

would probably be up for this, though 1st is probably out for me....

Odd how EVERYONE IN LONDON DOWN IN SOUTHAMPTON!!1! is so much more appealing for people in Southampton then for people in London...

I'm prolly gonna be up for this any time. I don't really know. I have deadlines and a well-rehearsed blank look.

As, quite clearly, the main attraction of the whole thing, how would everyone feel about the first weekend in June, to please me and, presumably, no one else at all?

Sounds good to me. I'm skint until June anyway, and you could all help me celebrate an early birthday, as I am probably not having a party this year after all (am pretty much partied out).

that would work on money grounds for sure...

OK then bro. Raise a request to rename this thread after your birthday, insert some stuff in the abstract and first post, and we have ourselves a going concern. You still moderate this forum, don't you?

Apparently not. I'll see what I can do...

June is fairly soon, will it still be neat to meet?

I wouldn't mind, but it's up to JtB as to whether he'd like a meet up near his birthday.

Any progress on this one?

I'll be in Soton in first half of June.

First weekend in June is the beer festival. We could drink!

I would love to catch up with some of you, if you'd have me... (Not like that, pervs)

Seth, are you still on the same phone number? I just found it again, and it's more likely I'm reachable by phone than I am online...

Yup, same number as last time I saw you. Text or call!
