The 2011 UK meet-up II
on: June 04, 2011, 05:07:59 PM
OK, so while we had a fantastic time at the May meet it was a little thin on the ground as far as members go, so  at the meet we were talking about trying to have another and see if we can get a few more bodies to come along. :tu:  The thinking was to have another go in mid August and get it in before Autumn hits.  So what to do is stick your name under the weekend you'd prefer and we'll see how it goes.

13th-14th August:
Gareth

20th-21st August:
Gareth

We believe the same site, near-ish Oxford, would be available to us (just so long as they don't blame Tony for the tree  ;)) but we would be perfectly open to any other suggestions if you have any.

Sticking your name down is not a commitment to come, just a indicator of interest. :) Hope to see you there.
Be excellent to each other and always know where your towel is.

How about doing it in Malia, Crete. There are so many Brits down there that time of the year that you'll feel right at home. :tu: Plus, you'll get to meet me! :multi:





Yes, alright. I'll get my coat myself, thank you... :-X :D

OK so going by the current name count we've got more interest in the second weekend (even discounting Ruby, the dog ;)).  So I'd like to put forward that we confirm this date and let those who wish to come get things organised and let Tony book the site. :)
