MN summer meet-up -- Poll for SOUTHERNERS

[Uwilalalalalala]

If the Summer meet-up, currently being proposed for 15 June (possibly whole weekend), is in Leeds would you go? What about Birmingham?

Please just type "yes", "no", or "maybe" (makes it much easier to determine results of poll)

Bristol/Bath I would do - am a lazy cow who doesn't travel

yes - to any.

Well after yesterday's bitchfest not sure I want to go to any more big meet-ups...

Brighton YES!!I could accomodate a few people if needed!

What happened, CD?

What bitchfest??/

if theres overnight staying going on then im pretty easy really.

It has been deleted now I think

Well, no doubt this thread will now die a sudden death.

No and no. No money or childcare for that long.

Uwila have emailed you btw
I need your address to send that skirt!

Leeds - No
Birningham - very unlikely
Bath - deffo yes
Brighton - ooooh yes please!

Is it a night out or a daytime picnick type of thing? (I will be breastfeeding, so can't come on my own )

Family picnic would be fab?

I think the folk involved want to skim over that episode from here on.

Birmingham - yes
Leeds - no

Leeds = no
Birmingham = may say yes for a while but ultimately won't go
Bristol = yes.

Just to hijack slightly ..... as I have been off MN since last week - did I miss any juicy posting ref: the Christmas Bash then ???

Do you promise not to stalk me?

Piss off foxy. No falmily picnic. We are having a booze up.

Birminghan - maybe
Everywhere else -no

Can I ask why the Southerners are reluctant to go up North?
I understand the argument about transport and hotels but actually, that was not the case at the weekend. The tube was packed because the district line was shut, tubes were not stopping at Victoria because of overcrowding, buses were full and there was a mile long queue for a taxi at only 8pm!
Costs - The tube is a rip off, so are buses, taxis! Fuck me!
Everything is dearer in London!

I won't go to another Southern meet-up because of the hours spent travelling to get there, trying to negotiate the tube by myself and not knowing where the feck I was, and the huge cost of it all! I spent £50 and I only bought myself one drink all night. The rest went on transport.

There are just as many trains go to Birmingham and there are only 2 stations at Brum!
Drink and transport is cheaper.
Major motorways lead to Brum.

So you Londoners have no real excuse not to go and you know it!
Lazy arses!

The problem is Brum is full of.... Brummies.

there are just more mns form the south east aren't there

brum is a bit scary isn't it?

I live in London and it took me 2 and 1/4 hours to get to the venue so I am quite happy to head elsewhere, especially if it means I get to stay in a hotel and get a lie-in.

Brum is no scarier than London believe me!

I could not believe the number of people on the Tubes who were pushing and shoving each other to get in, even mums with tots were barged into! The doors wouldn't close because of all the limbs hanging out!

There were loads of people, loads of warnings about thieves etc, everyone was loud and nobody looked particularly friendly.

If you've never been to Brum then you can't say that it's scary. It isn't.
