right as always we have had some squabbling óver where this years christmas meet will be.
if you are hoping to attend please couldyou indicate below by adding your name to either the Birmingham or London list.
if you could attend either then please put your name on both lists.

basically, whichever list has the most people thats where it will be held.

And for thosewho will complain that its still only june, christmas bookings for large parties like this are needed to be booked well in advance so we need to have at least the basics of which city we are using.

someone sorts out a northern one
and a scottish one

and i get to go to all 3

This is ridiculous. Must there be only one?

There were always severeal meetups, The Birmingham Crowd organized their meetup, the London Crowd the London party, etc.

Of course it should be overseas.

What's the absolute geographical miggle of the country? Come on someone swotty, get a map of the British Isles out and a ruler and compass.

Then everyone can turn up there, wherever it is. With a sound system. Each. Like a rave.

On Boxing Day...

ScaredOfCows · 09/09/2009 14:29

East Midlands?

nevergoogledragonbutter · 09/09/2009 14:31

It's probably Hexham.
Hexham is the centre of the universe.

preciouslillywhite · 09/09/2009 14:41

Hexham it is then

....eeee, I just googled dragon butter. You mucky cow!

PortBlacksandResident · 09/09/2009 14:42

Birmingham for me. Possibly Sheffield.

nevergoogledragonbutter · 09/09/2009 14:45

apparently it's haltwhistle. i was 15 miles out.

preciouslillywhite · 09/09/2009 14:47
jaquelinehyde · 09/09/2009 14:48

Ooh Haltwhistle is lovely, I had afternoon tea there once. A bit far for me to travel though, from the South Coast.

preciouslillywhite · 09/09/2009 16:36

Let's put on a few coaches, then, and ask em if they can do tea, buns, cheese puffs and gin for 1000 odd

Confused you mean all back to yours FBG?

I'm bumping. no intention of coming (too damn shy )

(yet ve-e-e-ery nosy)

50ftQueenie · 16/09/2009 22:15

FBGIB - I think you live nearish me so, fair play, all round to yours then!

VulpusinaWilfsuit · 16/09/2009 22:27

ROFL at this thread. I'll be posting my GPS co-ordinates later for you all to vote on.

I might . And I might not. But I don't care a hoot where it is.

geoffkates · 16/09/2009 22:32

I used to live in a place that had a sign saying geographic centre of the UK (or was it midway between the Atlantic and the Pacific) anyway it was a little place just outside Leamington Spa.

It was horrid though - dont have any meetups there...there was only a spar, a dodgy pub and a chippy anyway...

[Apologies to anyone who lives in aforementioned place, this was nigh on 20 years ago and it may well have changed - awkward disclaimer over]

hatesponge · 16/09/2009 22:37

I would suggest Croydon

Other than that:
a) anyone who has ever been there after 6pm will NEVER want to go back
and
b) as have outed myself as mean & 'orrible sweary, shouty mother on another thread, no-one would want to meet me anyway

geoffkates · 16/09/2009 22:52

Atlantic and the Pacific? WTF? I mean North Sea obviously...tsk and now I need yet another namechange...
