Ok centred on surry uni at guilford  but v def encompassed south london ( 1 member is at uni in greenwich-or simila spillin)  and i think they have a gym sorted in kingston.  Id say check/log on that site. They are small but organised -just need peeps. Me Im part of the group 'the other side' ie Hants Dorest  but a good few of us r interested in a decent london meet once a month or 2

I'd be up for a meet London on a weekend next month.
I've been give 2 tickets to go in a float chamber thingy and they end the end of next month and it's a shame to waste them both.

Yes of course; absolutely/..

Sort a date/time, and yes the Surrey Springers... although primarily based in the SouthWest are trying to expand into holding some London meets too.

Cheers for the interest, London needs it!

Title: Re: meet in london
Post by: Spud on November 19, 2008, 11:45:59 PM
I got a suggestion  :)

You could the title of the thread now you have a date and put it there. something like London Meet 14th Jan would be good. Short sweet and people know what it is. There might be threads with similar names and when the date has passed people know.

You could also update the first post with time, date and location. Put it in bold too  :thumbs: ...Its easier to find out what you need to know

Had to bump this has I have two ticket for these float tanks and just found out their worth £45 EACH and run out the end of next month. Was thinking of using both at the sametime I thought they where only about £25 each ( unless someone make me an offer ? ).
Don't want to wast them now so what ever happens I'll be there.
Title: Re: meet in london 14th dec
Post by: Spud on November 21, 2008, 01:44:24 AM

Title: Re: meet in london 14th dec
Post by: Spud on November 21, 2008, 04:07:42 PM

the question is, will dk float in a tank, lol i know i would sink, if weather is nasty we could go to the science museum and show off how hi tec they are, lol
Title: Re: meet in london 14th dec
Post by: Spud on November 21, 2008, 08:13:59 PM
Haha I am in London on the 13th/14th for a Coldplay gig! I get to go to Camden locke too! yay!

lol anyway. I was thinking of joining you because on sat we stay in a hotel on liverpool street. But...we have to move hotels at lunchtime to someplace called dock lands and I would have to get there some how. It is logistcally possible for me to take my bocks but...I am just to scared to try and get to this dock lands place on my own.

I havnt been to London many times. Its a big place and I'm a wimp so although I would like to go (and miss the planetarium) I'm not gonna...maybe see you around tho lol

 :spudT:
Title: Re: meet in london 14th dec
Post by: Sx Nutta on November 21, 2008, 08:39:08 PM
spud i know the docklands area, as i worked near there, let me know addie, and will take u there after meet
Title: Re: meet in london 14th dec
Post by: Spud on November 21, 2008, 08:49:31 PM
Thanks nutta! I am still unsure bacuase I just found out people might not be at docklands so would have to find them in the middle of London with bocks. As more details on what we are planning and you are planning I should be able to decide. I moan about living in the middle of nowhere but really I like it. I wouldnt want to be near big cities.

I like london but a day is almost too much. I like the place with the pidgins and water and another place with water but with tiny little birds.

God I am wimp...I really dont want to go away from my family because I will lose them
Title: Re: meet in london 14th dec
Post by: lynch on November 25, 2008, 05:51:33 PM

Title: Re: meet in london 14th dec
Post by: Dark Knight on November 25, 2008, 06:30:29 PM
More detail about the meet would help people decide if they want to come ?
modifing the first page is a good idea.
You can add the people who's coming as well.
Title: Re: meet in london 14th dec
Post by: darfgarf on November 25, 2008, 07:55:10 PM
well i'm coming, unless it says p**sing rain all day, then i might give it a miss, and i'll prod the rest of the SS to have a think about it aswell, and do a post in the jjs while i'm at it, more the merrier so they say
Title: Re: meet in london 14th dec

Title: Re: meet in london 14th dec
Post by: darfgarf on December 01, 2008, 11:17:42 AM
DK: most meets ive been to disintegrate after about 4 hours or so, so i usually aim for 6pm trains if that helps

lynch: as long as there is headroom and whoever owns the place doesn't mind us it sounds pretty good, as long as there's not too many bikers all over the place
Title: Re: meet in london 14th dec
Post by: Dark Knight on December 01, 2008, 11:43:47 AM
Before I book a double for myself, would anyone like to make an offer for 1 ( They are worth £45 each ) as the end this year and will not be back this year ?
This is what it's for.

I can sit at the bottom of a diving pool I don't float but the salts keep you floating.

You don't need loads of people to have a good meet, we only had 5 this weekend in London and we had a wicked time.
Title: Re: meet in london 14th dec
Post by: Bbmthbloke on December 09, 2008, 08:37:00 PM
hi,  1st post on this thread. Ill echo sprog   somehow  meets in londom r special -well seem to b for moi.  Latest weather report looks like a few spots od rain  but do mean spots ( a fraction of a mil' over a 3hour period). That really just dictates the time of a coffee break at worst.

So Ill be along as long as no engineering works ( soz but dont think I could face getting off the train and on to a bus at some point at the end of the day). But day DAY OFF IS FRIDAY SO SORT ALL THAT OUT THEN.  Opps soz for shouting.
Faint possibility of another JJ commin too.

Un good  numbers would be good. But It is getting close to chrimbo un getting cold,so low numbers understandable, so just keeping momentum going is good. just try un keep regular london meets going, I know the Surrey guys r close to a gym too. 1 meet a month and a gym meet once or twice  till easter and after that  should be well established for loads of stuff.


But would say  please b a lil more forethcomming on opening post. OK time un place for meet   but a lil route would b nice ------horribl nag aint i :o)

Title: Re: meet in london 14th dec
Post by: Jason on December 15, 2008, 10:58:30 PM
Yes he did Spud and then we went to leister sq and both Lynch and I fell over

Lynch's was spectacular and caused by oily water
Mine was hilarious and caused by stupidity  :biggrin:(as usual)

So the score at the end of the day was me 1, lynch 1, Sx 0 and clive won with 2 falls although he managed to make the second one look like he ment to do it as part of the show he was putting on for the cameras  :biggrin:

Nice to meet you  Spud and nice to meet you Becky shame you couldn't stay longer

If you guys have a meet (with plenty of notice) I would deffo come again. Its a couple of hours on the train but I'm not scared of the tube now and if I can book tickets enough in advanced I can get a return for £8 and whatever the tube costs.

The only reason I didn't have my bocks was because I was only gonna come for coldplay, going to meet you guys was a bit of an after thought. If we didn't have to change hotels on Sunday I would have brought them ;)

Ho Hum...maybe I will see you all again, but I'm not local and i would need to plan it. If any of you didn't know I'm from Norwich and if any of you every want to visit I will put on a meet for you ;)

Really because I was thinking of just going on the sunday instead of sat and when i looked to see how much they were it was gonna be £30 for a single, and that was with the railcard. How did you get that price?

Ooops sorry Lynch

Yep I remember about tyour second fall now (old age gets to the mind first  :biggrin:) and thanks for helping get me up after my fall that ankle just won't take the weight at the moment (a little to much weirht me thinks  :haha:)

Judging by the fact that we had 6 people and one with no bocks and a total of 5 falls we must have been trying hard enough on the day  :biggrin:

Looking forward to the next meet and would love to visit Norwich ( warmer weather sounds nice  :thumbs:)
