    ahh trip
    we could of had the first certforums meet up
    but you were busy writing your book hehe
    which might i add i was very proud to see on the shelf of the Books Etc in Londons Victoria station
    and proceeded to go 'ooo ooo i know the guy who wrote that, hes da man' to all my friends
    lol

    considering the lack of selection of IT books in that small bookshelf, you did yourself proud ;)

    so anyway back to what I was saying
    yup, it could of been you first mate
    and you were only 20 mins down the freeway! lol

    Next time mate, next time!

    :oops: My bad. I get very single minded when I have a deadline. Even my kids say I spend way too much time on the computer.

    Or at least canoe?

    Like the idea of this meet up. If we're BBQing then sometime in the next 2-3 months would probably be a good idea (just stating the obvious!)

    I think it would be an idea if we organise something easy and straight forward. Such as just a simple meet up at a Hotel or something over a weekend. We could have a casual social gathering one evening and then possibly a meal etc the next evening.

    Perhaps we could coincide the event with another computing event such as an exhibition? Or possibly a Sci-Fi cinema release? This would prevent us from all getting board of each other, give us a focus for our first meeting and something to talk about too!

    I'm putting this across because it is going to be difficult for a bunch of us to conjure up enough interest to others unless we, as organisers, first take the chance to meet each other!

    What do ya reckon!

    hey, perhaps we could coincide it with Trip's "book-signing day" in London? From what I've read on this forum he ought to have one!!! :p

    If not Trip, bloody well organise one, preferably in Birmingham (just up the road from me)!! :D

    Where? its a toss up i guess :)
    When? Defo the summer period, July maybe? June is probably pushing it unless its just a pure social event, not much planning required for that :)

    I think seeing as we have plenty of interest we need to put up a few polls to get a better idea of what everyone things would be the better ideas of what they would like to happen at the meet up.

    Wont have time now but will drop something soon. :)
