ScotMeet, Edinburgh
Oh yes! There are 397 reasons why we should not have another Scottish meetup. Fortunately, none of them count. So we'll be gathering in Edinburgh on the 28th February 2004 in the company of some like-minded (although probably not right-minded) compatriots (or anyone else who wants to turn up). More details and sign-up on the ScotMeet page.

Spring meet 2004 (unoffical)
It isn't clear if Friday 7th to Monday 10th May 2004 is the confirmed date but it will certainly be around that time.
Where? Butlins, Bognor Regis.
Why? Alcohol!... and just one evening is never enough! As well as the usual site facilities it is 'Disco inferno' weekend!! Cost will be approximately £50 per person silver standard self catering.We are also arranging a 'shopping kitty' to keep costs of eating out down and more money for alchohol! All those interested should visit this page.

Micro-Meets
The purpose of this Entry is to provide a Zone for Researchers to inform each other of their free time and movements so that they can hopefully find out when and where all or some of them can meet up in the future with the minimum of inconvenience to enjoy each other's company out there in the real world.

Come out and vote, Demon Drawer would sure appreciate it!

Thirdly, the society proposes that the Dalai Lama's message of peace should be examined as a practical alternative to violence and armed conflict. Features include: Tibet News, Chronology, Tibet Tourism, and a Guestbook. John-the-gardener would appreciate you coming out to join.
