50 Bookers 2025 Meet Up

310 replies

MamaNewtNewt · 27/03/2025 12:44

Just setting up a chat to firm up plans for a Southern meet up and a Northern meet up.

Lets see who is interested, then firm up locations and dates.

I know there are a few of us who want to come but might not be able to make it, so no judgement at all for those who decide nearer the time that they can’t make it. Hope to meet some of you this year!

I’m not going to make it either I’m afraid but hope you all have a great time! Maybe next year…

JaninaDuszejko · 06/07/2025 22:00

I've got my email but sadly will not be able to make it, July is very busy this year. Sorry to miss it and hope you all have a great time!

FuzzyCaoraDhubh · 06/07/2025 18:58

Thank you for the email, Agua!
It all sounds great.

AgualusasLover · 04/07/2025 22:02

Didn’t get a chance today - will go back to the form and see who I have missed.

sometimes I wonder how I function.

Cherrypi · 04/07/2025 18:23

I haven't received an email either.

MegBusset · 03/07/2025 22:46

@AgualusasLover I haven’t had a new email about London

CornishLizard · 03/07/2025 20:27

Thank you Agualusa, I received the email and am very much looking forward to it.

Stowickthevast · 03/07/2025 19:41

I got the email but can't make it - sounds so lovely though!

AgualusasLover · 03/07/2025 19:20

So:

missing from the email. I knew I’d mess it up. Will forward to the two of you and anyone else in the morning.

DesdamonasHandkerchief · 03/07/2025 19:14

I’ve got my email too, many thanks for the impecable organising. I’ve chosen my book for the swap but my attendance is now hang over dependent as I have a ‘Do’ on the 18th. I have worked out I can get a train that will allow more of a lie in but get me to the meeting point for about 11:15am so I’ll aim for that.

Terpsichore · 03/07/2025 18:07

I’ve had it too, thanks! Sounds excellent.

TimeforaGandT · 03/07/2025 17:25

I have had the email, thank you. All sounds great.

cassandre · 03/07/2025 16:09

I've had the email, many thanks!

SheilaFentiman · 03/07/2025 16:08

I haven’t had a new email for London yet, Agua

FuzzyCaoraDhubh · 03/07/2025 15:42

Do you mean a new email, Agua?

AgualusasLover · 03/07/2025 14:52

I think you can be forgiven @BlueFairyBugsBooks .

Everyone else, you should have an email from me. If you haven’t just shout loudly and I will double check all the details.

bibliomania · 02/07/2025 08:50

That sounds like a fun event, @BlueFairyBugsBooks !

BlueFairyBugsBooks · 02/07/2025 01:26

Just realised I didn't put this diary and then double booked myself. I managed to win tickets to see The Jacksons, Sister Sledge and Boney M. So I'll be doing that instead. Awfully sorry. Although I'm sure you'll all breathe a sigh of relief that I'm not coming Grin

cassandre · 25/06/2025 17:04

@FuzzyCaoraDhubh I'm chuffed that you're coming to London! Woo-hoo!

cassandre · 25/06/2025 17:04

@MamaNewtNewt Another 50 Booker here wishing you much sympathy. I'm so sorry.

By the way, I asked you to send me the availability form and I've received it, but my timetable is a bit all over the place this summer, and I'm woefully ignorant of Northern cities. (I loved visiting Manchester last year though!) So I think it's best if I don't fill out the form; I'll just wait and see what city and date work best for other people, and will do my best to come wherever/whenever everyone else decides on. Thank you 💐

FuzzyCaoraDhubh · 24/06/2025 09:43

Likewise @TimeforaGandT and @AgualusasLover :))

TimeforaGandT · 24/06/2025 08:44

Likewise.

Sending best wishes for a difficult time @MamaNewtNewt.

Looking forward to seeing you again @FuzzyCaoraDhubh.

AgualusasLover · 22/06/2025 18:00

Sorry to hear your news @MamaNewtNewt

looking forward to seeing you again @FuzzyCaoraDhubh will send some more firm comms beginning of the month.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 22/06/2025 17:51

StrangewaysHereWeCome · 17/06/2025 12:28

please don't worry about this @MamaNewtNewt - sending good wishes to you and your loved one.

Sorry to hear this.

I don't think I can make the London meet up this time, but will try to get to a future Manchester or London one.

FuzzyCaoraDhubh · 22/06/2025 16:49

Today I booked my flight for London. Yay!
