Thread: Uk meet up

I'm still up for a meet but I've got some other serious commitments until about July . If it's going to be sooner I'll seriously try my best to make it

It'll be good to meet up and see everyone in person - very appealing

hi guys I am defo up for a meet in the midlands keep all us uk guys posted could be good to compair info and see some of the more expereanced guy strut there stuff

Just checking out access points to the Midlands and perhaps for many the idea of a cheap flight into east Midlands airport might be a winner? Certainly I can jump on a plane in Inverness and go there return for £40. Plenty of venues to look into.
Should we put this into the 'meetings' area and perhaps set up a poll for time of the year etc. It would be really good to have a selection of people with experience coming along to make it attractive for everybody. Perhaps have a honing/stropping demo by an old hand/s, a selection of collections that people could talk everyone through. A talk and demo on basic restoration by someone? Could even take a couple of digipics each and add to a powerpoint presentation and everyone can get a chance to say why a certain razor is the best for them? I think if this has a chance of success it would need to have buy in from a few senior UK members who wouldn't mind inputting on the day. As I have said I don't mind the legwork to get venue etc sorted. So - setup a poll on the meetings section? Anybody happy to do some of the activities suggested?
Obviously I can also arrange a leisure activity as well as the obvious eating and drinking, once this seems to have more fullsome support.

cheers

I would be happy to to set up the poll (will have to ask members how to put one on this site) let me know if you want me to do it and the info we are going to vote on in the mean time I will ask around regarding getting the poll set up on srp

I'd be up for this, particularly for the chance to see people strop and hone as examples. I'm in London and carless so would either like to carpool or look for a location that's within reasonable reach of a train or coach station.

Cheers,

Justin.

Thought this was best moved on from this area to the meetings area so that a wider membership hopefully will see. Hopefully some senior members will get on board too - give us a steer on how to do things a wee bit better.

Just a quick link in this thread to the UK meet-up thread in the proper meetings section. Be sure to post in there if you are still interested. That way you subscribe to that thread too.
