Hi Unknown Visitor

The latest update on the Rolling Meet is just about the saddest one we could make.

We have had to postpone it, and as and when it does take place it is likely to be drastically shorter.

There are a whole bunch of reasons for this, but let's just say if you are going to do something wildly spontanious, it is better to do it immediately. This spring has put both of us through interesting times in different ways.

Thanks to all of you for your enthusiasm and your interest.

Bad news about the Rolling Meet (May 1, 2003)
The latest news about the Rolling Meet is sad and frustrating.

For a variety of different personal reasons we have concluded that the wiser course for each of us is to postpone it.

Our thanks to all of you for your interest and your enthusiasm.

Now with dates! (Mar 16, 2003)
We have finally got an itinerary that has been reasonably stable for a couple of weeks, so I have updated the page accordingly.

There is a certain amount of slack built into this itinerary, but even so, we could still end up running a little late. run

Let us know if you want to meet up.

oops, and ramblings (Feb 5, 2003)
I clicked the wrong link, and accidentally removed the other journal entry from this space. doh

Now I'm putting this one up so I can get to the forum page, and then I can reinstate it I guess.... erm

uh....

While I'm here, it's not a bad time to announce that I've been doing lots of page updates. The states list and the researchers list have been merged into one mega-mega-superlist. Somewhere along the line, I lost Pennsylvania. huh (winkeye )

Ben and I are hammering out a fairly detailed itinerary, and I think I can honestly say we're stunned and delighted that so many people have offered to meet and entertain us in so many places! We're really excited, and hope that this trip will be a catalyst for lots of North American researchers to come together, maybe hit the road with us for a stretch, and have lots of fun! smiley

It's just about that hour of the latenight/earlymorning that I'm capable of getting half-sentimental, so I'll shut up and see about reinstating the other journal entry.

First Fallout! (Feb 2, 2003)
GTB and I have found our first difference of opinion. Should this ID have Goo as its preferred skin, or should it be Brunel? Decisions, decisions, negotiations, negotiations.

laugh

Anyway, hopefully now I have put in a journal entry, I should be able to subscribe to this space.

I have a Big Wall Map with lots of sticky lables, and the whole thing is getting ludicrously exciting.
