Can't make the Manchester meet, unfortunately. Maybe next time, depending on where I'm living then, I may be able to make it! Any others on the horizon?

It's in 12 days? Eeep!
* looks at calendar *
Doh! That clashes with something else.

...Well, I'm hoping there will be another meet, two or three weeks after the Manchester one; I need my fix maan well, if being onsite is addictive, surely meeting people from onsite in pubs has to be addictive too 
Hmm, actually about time I had a peruse over the site, see what I've missed, and if any other potential meets are in teh vaccinity of the location to which I can pertain to

YAY!!!
I've never been to Manchester....

2legs - Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side... Posted Jan 28, 2003
Hmm, well, i lived there a year and a half, you haen't missed that* much 
And I might not be able to make the Manchester meet now 
: I really should keep some sort of diary, rather than relying on remembering dates I have things to do on... Turns out, from what I can currently make out, that it clashes with a gig of a friends new group 
can't really miss that, esp as he is my lodger as well as a good friend 
.... What with it only being down the road as well, and saving the £56 train fare to Manchester probably wouldn't be a bad idea well, I'll have to figure out if it is a clash, otherwise I guess I'll have to do both

I did once suggest the idea of a meet in my Home town, in depest darkest suffolk... I know the guy at the hotel, where we could hold it on a saturday night pretty-much free, they'd just charge the buffett <wow. and they could do a very good deal on accomidation I think he said about £18 for a single room 
Which i think included his loverly cooked breakfast : not that I stay at the hotel drinking all night until breakfast, Taht* often 
oh, and with a 2 AM extension at least but didn't seem to be the interest 
well, it is Deepest Darkest, awfulest suffolk, as I said But, cambridge, hmm, suppose its not far from London, so pretty easy on train really

OH come on!!!! You'd be foolish to plan a meet on what I say!!! SHEEESH!!!
Don't break your brain over it, love!!!

I think that Lowestoft would be a very "interesting" place to have a meet 2Legs.

Well, I was only thinking, its an easy train trip for you

Yeah 2legs, you're right about it being and easy train trip. You never know, we could always have a meet in Ipswich. Now that *would* be interesting!!

2legs - Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side... Posted Jan 30, 2003
: I've never been to Ipswitch: well, only so far as I've been to the station, whilst waiting for a train.... 
I bet there are loads* of interesting and fun things to do there bit like in Lowestoft
