jayseven Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Er, ok. With images of our Hyde park fiasco still burned onto my retinas, I'll attempt to patch together plans for a meet up in Sheffield. The month will be September. The date will probably be... either Saturday september 13th or IS Saturday 20th. If we suggest meeting at between 11am and 12pm at the train station fountain, then we'll head for the botanical gardens to do more of the same, except... well, more I suppose. There will be about 5 minutes from tescos there, too! Er.... what do you think? I really feel like I'm jumping the gun here... Those who are DEFINITELY going to be there; dan dare! jayseven! The Bard! Nightwolf! Cube! Eevilmurray! Warandchaos! Davey_T! Harribo! Nami! Shorty! Raining_Again! Sheikah! Mr_Odwin! Plus, y'know, special guests...
nightwolf Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Hm, well I'd much rather the 13th than the 20th, though I'm not sure if I'll be at sheffield then, but it's easy enough to get there and back (it's two trains but it's an easy enough journey). It's up to everyone else, but I maybe moving to sheffield so I'll have to check later in the month! edit: basically for now it's a yes, but I may have to yank out if I have to move
Dan_Dare Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 I'm pretty sure I'd be branded a complete twat bandit if I didn't show up in my hometown. I'll come whenever.
Roostophe Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 I'll try and come. Can't really guarantee that I'll make an appearance, though.
MoogleViper Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 I should be able to make that. I know those places reasonably well as I have a friend who lives not too far from there.
Cube Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Not sure if I can make it, it's quite a long way. You stole my words.
darksnowman Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Not sure if I can make it, it's quite a long way. Yeah, same here. But, to visit j7's homeland, we shall see.
Guest Stefkov Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Probably a bit too early to say, but it's probably agogo for me.
McPhee Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Maybe, not so sure here. Sheffield ain't far, but it's a pain in the arse to get to. For now i'll say maybe, depends what i'm up to at the time... Yeah, same here. But, to visit j7's homeland, we shall see. Note where Shorty lives for a minute and then see the sarcasm hint: he lives with J7
Ellmeister Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Pfft, I work on saturdays and since I'm leaving a few weeks after they will not let me have a day off =/ Bad one.
darksnowman Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 @McPhee: I know that. Was trying some humour contrasted with the seriousness and genuineness that its actually a bit of a long way away from me.
Shorty Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Maybe, not so sure here. Sheffield ain't far, but it's a pain in the arse to get to. For now i'll say maybe, depends what i'm up to at the time... Where do you live? Sheffield is on the M1.
EEVILMURRAY Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Can the humour implied in the title be revealed please. Will be closer than London. I suppose I could offer potential arrival. Jay, will our mysterious friends in common from Facebook be in attendance?
Jimbob Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Should be able to make it, as long as work and the funds are acceptable enough for me.
McPhee Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Where do you live? Sheffield is on the M1. I know where Sheffield is, my first GF lives (lived? honestly no idea! been like 4 years now!) there. I'm on the M6, or more importantly on the West-Coast mainline. I have to go South to brum and then back up the Sheffield, or North to Manc, across to Leeds and back down to Sheffied. It's an hour and a half cross country by car or about 3 hours of train journeys (unless i'm very lucky and manage to get a Stafford-Stoke-Derby-Sheffield trip to work out, it's a difficult route).
The Bard Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Cool, might turn up to this and annoy you guys some more. Yeah!
Olympic Gamer Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 This fits in perfect with my Uni location presuming I go, I vote September 20th.
RoadKill Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 Cool, might turn up to this and annoy you guys some more. Yeah! There are a lot of parks in Sheffield - more trees to break, more pidgeons to hadouken !
nightwolf Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 This fits in perfect with my Uni location presuming I go, I vote September 20th. going sheffield uni?

Olympic Gamer Posted July 7, 2008 Posted July 7, 2008 going sheffield uni? Nay, but Liverpool Uni which is alot closer to sheffield than my current location. Any meet-ups a good'un after mother cruely pounced on me for the money I owe her. I presume your going to sheffield uni?
