Okay, we'll be in London 21st August to 30th August. We leave a matter of hours before EGDC - sod's law!
Anyway, we're not doing anything the 21st, as we'll be arriving that evening from NZ. We're leaving in the wee small hours of the 30th, so the night before is out. Actually we may well be at my sister's beach house that last weekend, so really 22nd through to 25th is my window of days/nights for meeting you sexy bastards. I'm fine with any night at this point, so book me before my lovely sister finds craploads of stuff to fill my time. I'm up for afternoon and evening jolliness, so if there's a particular day or evening that's good for anyone post here. I want to meet as many of you lot as I can please
Oh, and we're in Greece all of September, so any of you living/visiting there shout out too.
I'll probably be in London (Camden) somewhere in september, which is a shame, since i would've liked to have met up with you all. For those that actually live in or near London: i'll tell you lot when i'll be there, and we should see if there's anything (music-wise) to do, and definately go out for some pints.
Allthough, i suggest we don't go to the belgian pub then, because i can get belgian beer here for less than a fortune a pint. (if anyone wants me to bring some, be sure to let me know in advance)
ps: Bort, please tell me you have a CF tshirt, because those are ridiculously bad. So bad, it just becomes good again.
i'd be good for saturday 27th. i'll firm something up more later this month, cos i might be moving to a new job, so holiday time and money may be issues...
Okay, Thursday through to when we leave we're kind of booked with my sister and her family. I reckon 23rd or 24th is all good. We can do 22nd at a push too.
Shall I just slap down a day and suss a location, or is there some kind of consensus possible here?
Oh, i'm taking the plane to london on the 24th of september, btw. I'll be there for a good ten days, so i suppose meeting up wont be too much of a problem, since i'm pretty much free all day anyway (i'm going to visit my girlfriend, but she has to work with some lovely insane homeless people during the day)
Frankie: is SD somewhere in the middle of london, and would it be possible for me to just drop by? i could ackwardly breathe down your neck whilst you work, and talk to the company belgian.
That is, if he doesn't speak french.
Bort: you LS-nazi, you.
Should any of you violently explode during the mean time, please let me know in advance, so i can plan my stay differently. thank you.
This means that we can either mix up the 'counters and the Kiwis, or 'counter drinks are Monday or Wednesday.
*watches tumbleweed go by*
I'm going to ring and try and hook up with Splash Damage and Frankie on the Monday, and if that doesn't pan out, the Wednesday. Will post any updates for those who wish to partake here
Im arround,id rather we met up on the Monday simply cos I got work on the Thursday...double CO-OP shift about 8hours...not a good day to be drunk/hung-over on hehe.
BUt yeah we will see what master Frankie and Peppi have to say...and maybe even some fo those other strangers from Splash I met at Qcon
I fly in the morning, so I'll catch whoever makes it to drinks in a few days, and should speak to Frankie at least Monday. Yay! First ever real-life Polyencounter!
hehe this could be 2 days to London in a row.... Meeting aload of Concept Art guys with the Jman on Sunday...then meet with you guys on Monday. My holiday money is gonan go down rather fast this weekend hehe
Crazy mad trying to fit too much into a week stuff going on right here
Going to be at the Ruby lounge, Caledonian Road, tonight from 7.30 with a bunch of kiwi gamers, and then Splash Damage tomorrow evening, until I don't know what time. Frankie, I guess we could nail things down then and post from your PC? Other than that I'm just getting hit by jetlag and feel amazingly stupid, so the idea of making decisions and planning is vaguely scary.
Last night was a write-off, the way I was feeling - just had some quality time with my sister and her husband. Also, my PC isn't on her network yet - will be later today, when my husband rebuilds it for her.
*bump*
As i said, i'll be in london from the 24th of september untill the 3rd of october, so is anyone up for meeting up?
I tried to email Frankie, but his cv seems to be just a few years out of fashion, and the only thing google could tell me was that he was dead.
I'm still up for awkwardly breathing down your neck as you work, so act fast!
Who else is in London around that time?

I drank some whisky from 1978 (my birthyear) last night, it cost me £10 (2000yen) for a glass. I can still taste it.
A Good few bears and music with fellow polycounters sounds fab!
Oh man, nobody loves me!
