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!

Many thanks Agualusa, sounds great!

Terpsichore · 02/05/2025 20:31

Got your message @AgualusasLover - thanks so much, sounds like a great plan!

AgualusasLover · 02/05/2025 20:16

I prob should have made it more 50 bookers generic

AgualusasLover · 02/05/2025 20:16

Oh please don’t overthink - I was just trying to filter any dodgy stuff that might come through. Say something about you/about 50 bookers or at this point just provide your email and anything I need to know - I didn’t mean to cause any anxiety, just ward of Brian from Hull 😂😀

I'm not totally sure either about something that you've only told us! I have some vague ideas but am worried about getting it completely wrong and ascribing a completely contrary opinion on a contentious book to you, or something!

I haven't filled in the form, question one caused anxiety about getting it wrong and then my brain got stuck ConfusedGrin

I had to check back on old threads. The shame!

@BlueFairyBugsBooks do you think you can try again (you can ignore number one) - the most important thing was collecting emails correctly - you can try to PM me, but that seemed to be a disaster last time.

I've done it, with nothing in qs1. Sorry. My anxiety went into overdrive and short of trawling every 50 bookers thread to find something to say I had no idea what to put.

MegBusset · 02/05/2025 18:26

@AgualusasLover email received, thank you!

FuzzyCaoraDhubh · 02/05/2025 18:21

Thank you for the email!

Hello again - those who have filled in the Google form have received an email with a brain dump of ideas.

please don’t be overwhelmed with the detail - the important bit is the ‘short version’ the rest are just ideas around that.

Received with thanks

AgualusasLover · 02/05/2025 17:59

Actually I seem to have some PMs that have worked - will send those people the email (sorry to miss you).

I can’t believe Janina has ruined my surprise entertainment for the northern meet up 😂

just to say I’m sending the email soon. Might need to be old skool as I’m struggling with the form.

Can you imagine if Brian from Hull turned up at the northern meet up 😱

No, no, no yoni massage needed, thanks, Brian!!!

BadSpellaSpellaSpella · 27/04/2025 19:23

That should be doable for me

AgualusasLover · 27/04/2025 13:06

I just did a google form and turned off the email necessity so it doesn’t show mine or theirs - they enter their email as an answer to my question. Feel free to click on the link (will repost at a laptop later) a couple of pages back.

This way we get the correct info since MN doesn’t like us PMing emails so it seems, but also can filter any Dave the Trucker.

@AgualusasLoverwhat form did you use for gathering info? I need to shamelessly plagiarise 😊

OP posts:
AgualusasLover · 27/04/2025 10:25

yep Please fill in the form as then I will have correct email addresses

Even if not sure, worth signing up so you have the details.

Terpsichore · 27/04/2025 09:48

I now think I should be free on 19th July - I'm still waiting for the final thumbs-up - but very much hoping to join the London get-together.

PermanentTemporary · 27/04/2025 06:22

@AgualusasLover I'm hoping it's OK if I now try and join the London date - I had a family situation which has now resolved so couldn't commit earlier. I'll try filling in the form?

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 26/04/2025 14:54

Just done it. Thank you!

AgualusasLover · 26/04/2025 12:03

@RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie have you filled in the LON form so I have the correct email etc
