Upcoming and Proposed Meets

The London Summer Meet!!!

Yes, it's that time of year again (or at least it will be) - it's The Great, Marvelous, exotically spiffing, H2G2 London Summer Meet 20041! The date is now confirmed as 10th July. It looks as if the afternoon (from around 1pm) will, once more, be spent in Hyde Park for picnicking and games or at a local watering hole for the diehard drinkers. The evening venue is still being debated. More details can be found here or just sign-up and join the other 54 (or so) would-be attendants.

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.

The  We Didn't Start The Fire compilation entry is now nearing completion and this has generated so much interest that we not only see more
projects proposed in the Collaborative Writing Workshop but also the return of 'The Topic of the Week'.

This week the subject is What The Romans Did for Us?. You know about the aqueducts, the perfectly straight roads and that big wall they built to keep out the Scots. You've heard of the mad Emperors, like the one who made his horse a senator. Rome ruled most of the ancient world at one time, but what has that done for you lately? Drop by and let h2g2 know.
