Our first one was only four:) But this one was 10...it takes time but yours will be great!

Nicki Markus (nickijmarkus) | 168 comments You've already got me down, Michael. I should be fine for morning or afternoon that day, so I'll keep an eye out for updates on time and place. I look forward to meeting a few of you.


Liam || Books 'n Beards (madbird) Have to see if I'm working but assuming you wouldn't mind a bloody young person rocking up I might come along.

Sally906 | 96 comments if I wasn't frantically saving for our trip next year I'd be booking flights - Won't happen this year - or next year though.

Sherri (fabledhattress) | 456 comments hey guys! I was keen but then again I work 10ish-5 on Saturdays :(


message 14: by marlin1 (new)

marlin1 | 422 comments My preference would be morning or early lunch, I realised after that I have something on in the middle of the afternoon and I shouldn't be there later than 3pm.

Michael, we did a meet at 11 for coffee, then had lunch at 12. It was all in the same place. Therefore anyone who couldn't stay could go after coffee - everyone who stayed for lunch wouldn't have to leave the venue. But you'd need a lunch number for booking as well:)

Okay. That's a pretty good idea! I'm taking in your suggestion for when we have to organise ours!

It worked really well Mish...having it in the same venue just meant moving from the casual cafe table to the dining table they'd reserved for us:)

No worries Michael:)


message 19: by Maria (new)

Maria | 52 comments I'm in. Looking forward to meeting everyone


message 20: by ★ Jess (new)

★ Jess  | 3071 comments Might be going to a pub crawl the night before. If so, I will be in no fit state to leave the house, let alone interact with people at 11 the next day. Still a maybe on that front though, so I'll let you know a little closer to the date :)


message 21: by Stef (new)

Stef Rozitis For me that is a terrible weekend to pick! I already have too much on but if the times work I will try to pop past!


message 22: by Stef (new)

Stef Rozitis I am difficult many weekends so I will just try to fit around


message 23: by Nicki (new)

Nicki Markus (nickijmarkus) | 168 comments I can do 11am, Michael, if that suits everyone else.


message 24: by Stef (new)

Stef Rozitis Awesome. Do we have a venue? I am not sure if my reading ability is down because I have the dreaded lurgy or if we don't have one yet


message 25: by marlin1 (new)

marlin1 | 422 comments Count me in Michael, planning to go unless something unexpected happens


message 26: by Nicki (new)

Nicki Markus (nickijmarkus) | 168 comments Just off to get ready to catch the bus for our meet-up. Occurs to me I don't know what any of you look like, but hopefully I can find you okay. My photo is on my page, so if you spot me first, give a yell! :)
