50 Bookers 2025 Meet Up

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!

Is @AgualusasLover and @LeylaOfCircassia The same person? I'm a bit confused

Yes, she is.

AgualusasLover · 22/04/2025 20:34

Sorry yes. I have an annoying username situation whereby I can only use devices permanently logged in with Agualusa. My laptop is logged in with Leyla because I couldn’t remember the Agualusa details.

Its annoying.

Stowickthevast · 23/04/2025 15:55

Sadly I can't make that date as already camping. But if there are any other dates planned, will try.

Summer is always quite busy for me, so maybe we can try another one in the autumn.

bibliomania · 24/04/2025 10:23

Thanks for the date, Agualusa. At this point it looks like it clashes with something else for me, but I'll keep it in the diary in case that changes.

RomanMum · 24/04/2025 18:43

Sadly I’m on a well earned holiday that weekend but I’ll keep an eye out for future meet up dates. Have a great day out folks! 📚

JaninaDuszejko · 24/04/2025 19:02

I might be able to make that date, depends on the teenage shenanigans (DD1 needs to do some university visits this summer).

Sadik · 25/04/2025 19:09

Only just seen this as I'm on a minimal social media break, but if you end up heading to Manchester again I'd love to come if the dates work out. (I'm a long way from both London & northern England but have a child in Manchester so can combine a trip.)

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 25/04/2025 19:12

@MamaNewtNewtwhats happening with the Northern meet?

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 26/04/2025 00:05

I could still tentatively do London or Manchester so will keep an eye out!

MamaNewtNewt · 26/04/2025 04:47

I’m going to send an email on the Northern meet up this weekend. I’ll let you all know on here once that’s been sent.

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

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 26/04/2025 14:54

Just done it. Thank you!

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?

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.

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.

MamaNewtNewt · 27/04/2025 11:06

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

OP posts:
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.

BadSpellaSpellaSpella · 27/04/2025 19:23

That should be doable for me

JaninaDuszejko · 28/04/2025 13:16

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

SheilaFentiman · 28/04/2025 13:27

JaninaDuszejko · 28/04/2025 13:16

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

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

MamaNewtNewt · 28/04/2025 14:17

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.

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.

BlueFairyBugsBooks · 02/05/2025 17:55

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

AgualusasLover · 02/05/2025 17:59

@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.

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).
