If happystance changes the weekend I'll be there, if not I'll be at the next one.

unfortunately May 11th won't work for me either.

wispyman

How about Friday 18th May then?? Seeing as the 11th seems to be a bit unpopular :-)

Chad_Fantastics

Well I'm a certainty for the 18th if it happens, going to see if any of the bods from my geek thread will come with.

i object. its too expensive in there - i like getting change from a fiver.
hows about the old oak then move on from there?

edit: and wispyman, hows about changing the tile of the thread to The Summer Boards Meetup Thread.
There is not enough activity on here for one a month...yet...

anyone can turn up alright.
sure everyone is nervous the first time until ya get to meet the people.
try posting in the general chit chat thread and get to know people and come along.
i know people enjoy the meetups more when their first one is an activity and not just the pub for drinks.
like bowling, pool or anything like that makes people relaxed naturally (without the need for alcohol) and you can enjoy yourself then before going to the pub.
at just pub meetups, new people seem like they stand around intimidated by everyone and then we rarely see them again. sure we talk to them, have a laugh and whatnot but its a better atmosphere at an actual event first.

thats just my 2 cents.

and on that note...anyone interested in pool at the mardyke around 6-7pm on friday 18th?
