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!

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

FuzzyCaoraDhubh · 02/05/2025 18:21

Thank you for the email!

MegBusset · 02/05/2025 18:26

@AgualusasLover email received, thank you!

@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.

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

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

elkiedee · 02/05/2025 19:36

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!

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 😂😀

AgualusasLover · 02/05/2025 20:16

I prob should have made it more 50 bookers generic

Terpsichore · 02/05/2025 20:31

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

CornishLizard · 02/05/2025 20:35

Many thanks Agualusa, sounds great!

JaninaDuszejko · 02/05/2025 21:38

I've not received the northern email. I can't remember if I filled in a northern google form but did sent a PM. However I added an extra full stop at the end of my email address so it may just be that.

CrepuscularCritter · 03/05/2025 06:45

The plans sound great. I just need to remember not to buy too many books in the first hour, then stagger around all day. Grin

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 03/05/2025 06:55

Thanks for the London email! I’m genuinely in awe at the efficiency of the planning.

I haven’t seen a Northern email, so must have done something wrong somewhere.

MamaNewtNewt · 03/05/2025 09:10

I got back from holiday last night so am sending the northern email today. I tried to do it on my iPad but it was a bit of a nightmare so will send from my laptop today.

@RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie I am an Executive Assistant by day, so organising is my thing.

MamaNewtNewt · 03/05/2025 12:16

Sorry for the delay - the northern meet up email has been sent. If you didn't receive it then let me know!

FuzzyCaoraDhubh · 03/05/2025 13:01

Thank you Mama! I got the email, but I had to fish it out of spam! I'll have a think about dates and locations and will fill in the form.

JaninaDuszejko · 03/05/2025 14:20

Still not got the northern meetup email!

MamaNewtNewt · 03/05/2025 14:53

Thanks so much @MamaNewtNewt for organising. I'd love to join in, but do have a few commitments on some of the dates suggested. Happy to travel to any of those locations though. Fingers crossed the dates work out!

BlueFairyBugsBooks · 03/05/2025 15:33

I haven't had an email about the London meet up. Not sure if it's not been sent yet as I was late submitting my form!

AgualusasLover · 03/05/2025 15:36

No, that my fault Blue. I will send a second batch of emails once I get to my laptop.

JaninaDuszejko · 03/05/2025 15:41

MamaNewtNewt · 03/05/2025 14:53

I’ve just PMed you the link to the form.

Fabulous. All filled in. Can't do some weekends due to prior commitments.

BlueFairyBugsBooks · 03/05/2025 15:42

No worries Agua, just don't want to miss it Smile

LadybirdDaphne · 03/05/2025 21:07

@MamaNewtNewt Thanks for the northern meet-up form, I didn’t completely it as I’m only in the country at the end of September (didn’t expect you to cater for that Smile). Have a great time and I’ll be with you in spirit!
