h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I'm quite new, so I would be interested to see researchers in my neck of the woods(Bristol).
Something in summer, maybe? It'll be after my GCSEs so I'll be looking for something to do, and write about

I'm sure the Horizon that is an Event will be able to help you out there

What does that mean?

Sorry - Event Horizon, aka DNA Meets is the girl to talk to. She'll be along at some point this weekend

I see. Whereabouts is her page?

She'll be along, don't worry!

Boo! Cheers fords

Nothing has been mentioned yet, one of the other usual organisers has complications with School/SATs etc, & as we usually go during term time this doesn't look good.

However nothing has exactly been ruled out yet either...

It's on my mind to get to Glasto this year (June 25th to 27th), although that depends on being able to get tickets, being able to drive & get time off work etc.

Someone else asked a few months ago about a meet up of sorts there...
Keeping an eye on this page (http://www.glastonburyfestivals.co.uk/) anyway.

I'll let you know if anything happens. Or if you're feeling really brave you could have a crack at putting a meet together yourself.

Ooh, think I could manage Glastonbury.

Still want to go back to Devon too at some point. Want to pay Gaia a proper visit, do Heligan this time and revisit Eden. Just for starters.

Where/when do other people want to go?

Sounds good

As some of you know, I'm sort of busy this May/June- but if you were all coming down later on in the summer I'd certainly try to bimble over to where-ever you may be.



C Hawke.

How about the week commencing 18 June, if I can swing it? You should be back by then.

If you're still looking for ideas (other than the US) can I recommend going to A2026982 ? I know I'd like to!

June 18th for Devon/Cornwall or Samoa?

Got nothing in my diary for that week, might be able to swing it... will check the leave book when I get back in on Monday.

Oh yeah - Boo! I'm back!

I think the summer Nodnol meet may well be round about that time

Samoa would be good thanks!

Anyway, looks like that week won't happen for various reasons (I blame Sheryl Crow). Not that London-centric meets would affect it. Point of south-west and other regional meets is to be more accessible to those for whom London is inconvenient.

Right, I've had a good look at Glastonbury Festival site, and have decided... I'm up for it! Tickets go on sale at 8pm tonight, and sold out within 24 hours last year, so if anyone wants to go, now's your chance!

So next question is... accommodation? I quite fancy a tipi. Otherwise, traditional campsite will do. Not much info on that yet though, like advance booking?

Quick 'festival meet' page at A2483930 So put your name down there if you plan to go.

on behalf of DNA Meets

Oooh.. *jumps up and down*
There's several of us Cornwall lot who'd certainly like to have a meet down here! The 2003 Eden one passed right under our noses very quietly!

Anyway, sounds like you guys were thinking glastonbury this yr... dodgy time for me at least but hey, maybe in 05?

Looks like it's time to set up a meet page then.

OK there is a plan of sorts hatching, but so far I've not really thought about making a meet out of it. - Aside from Glastonbury where several of us are on the way too (see A2483930). Some of us will also be headed down to (somewhere in) Cornwall at the end of August, so if there was to be some sort of meet arranged around going somewhere like Eden or Goonhilly - it would probably be over the weekend of the August 28th, or possibly the 4th of September.

Though I'll have to check with the about her plans for getting there and back again (we have a fair old way to travel!), which I'll do this weekend & get back to you

Yay Holiday time is just round the corner!

For info, I am on leave that 1st week in Sep so if you are around I *may* be able to pop over and see you all wherever you may be.

Ooh, maybe you can direct us to a great campsite then? We want the facilities of Carlyon with a beach at least equal to Holywell. Any suggestions medear? Preferably a reasonably 'central' location for ease of getting here and there (got Eden, Heligan, Tintagel, Gaia and possibly Goonhilly in my sights).

As for a meet... it looks like Sunday 29 August at The Eden Project could be a possibility. And we'll want a good place to party on the 31st too.
