Hey, I know you're quite far from other people who have expressed an interest in coming, everyone else seems to be slightly further up than you, if I can help with transport at all I will, I may be able to pick you up from bristol or taunton or something if you can get a train to there!

Boyfriends a piggy lover so I'm hoping he will help get me anywhere :') Thank you for the offer though !
 
Have fun guys, it was lovely to meet everyone at the Birmingham meet :) shame this one is just a bit too far away for me!
 
I am an awkward begger who can do any day weekends or weekdays - as long as its not when I am working :))

In other words, for me suggest a few dates, hopefully a few weeks ahead and I can tell you which ones I am free for - or able to move a work day if possible. At least 3 weeks notice is needed for me to be able to sort out any moving of days.
 
I don't ever work weekends (the joy of being an administrator) but as above, if I had enough notice I could potentially build up some overtime hours or book a day off (I think I have one spare that I can use, saving the rest for christmas!)

I'm a receptionist at job 1, and an administrator at job 2 - love the former, dislike the latter!
 
Count me in! I dont know quite how Ive missed this. :)

I work wednesday 5-9 thursday 2-6 friday 2-6 but I do do overtime so the more notice the more chance I have of comming.

Potentially can push those working hours about abit too.
 
Come on peoples! Need to know what days of the week are convenient for the masses!
 
I've had a look at who has expressed an interest and where everyone lives.

I'm thinking that Bristol is probably a) about the most central and b) has the best transport links for the people coming from Devon/Wales/slightly further afield.

Does anyone have any objections to meeting up somewhere easy to get to in Bristol?
 
Sounds good, somewhere easy to get to either by coach or train would be best for me as I have no car, but I can make do. lol

I can always pick you up from somewhere if necessary (and take you back to the bus/train station afterwards of course!)
 
Yup definitely do-able! Depending on dates/times I'll either drive or get the train. As for days I'm free, I'm in and out of work all the time so I'll just have to see if I can make it on the date everyone decides :)
 
Bristols perfect to me !
Only just got back from a trip up there on saturday and me and the other half mentioned how we'd love to go again up there as it's an easy drive ! awesome.

I used to do Bristol-Plymouth and back 3 or 4 times a week!
 
Going to try and come up with a date by the end of the day, watch this space peoples!


Can I also have some ideas as to what people would like to do so I can pick somewhere? There's plenty of outdoorsy places if the weather is good, we could do a picnic, or a pub lunch or something. Ideas on a postcard!
 
I dont mind too much ( As I can work around it) But I would rather we could bring out own food due to my very intense at present, dairy intollerance. However Like I said if everyone else wants a pub lunch I can work round it. :)
 
Maybe there is somewhere we can go that gives the option of buying food there or you can bring your own?

That was going to be my next Q :)) Bristol is good in terms of "alternative" cuisine and I'm vegetarian so it's something that I'd be checking out beforehand, a lot of places will do things and have a vegan version available. We'll find something that works!
 
I am pretty easy as long as its not somewhere in the middle of bristol, I hate trying to navigate round the place (as you know).

My suggestion is presently ashton gate if we go for picnic, trying to think of other places that are easy to get to/find and suitable

I think Ashton Court is a pretty good idea if the weather is good. Alternatively, there are a few pubs along the A369 which I will scout out!
