    is there currently any website for enthusiasts meetups out there? e.g if I was interested in rc car racing I could go on and see if there are any meetups or events for that hobby on. I was thinking of setting one up if it doesn't already exist. Would it be useful?

    Meetup.com

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    You could try boards.ie although to be perfectly frank, there's only a bunch of tossers on there.

    If I had a hobby I'd Google that hobby,probably not some generic website.

    That gives me an idea! Wouldn't it be great if you also had a website where you could type in something and it automatically searched the internet for matching websites and returned the results to you.........

    I send my butler out to ask such questions of coach drivers and the delivery boys... I hear many meet in taverns and discuss things over ale. I myself go to two places:
    The coffee shops where I learn of ships that require insurance and of the latest cargos;and
    The gentlemen's club where one drinks good brandy and you can discuss where to find the best , plump, potatoes fed prostites...
