Exclamation Aberdeen meet-up!!

In conjunction with another forum I'm trying to arrange a meet-up up here in sunny Aberdeen! I was at the one held last year in the Cocket Hat, North Anderson Drive with the BE guys and it was great to meet others with the same Oz obsessed frame of mind as myself! We met on Sunday afternoon for a few drinks and a good natter, and everyone was absolutely lovely!

I thought I'd suggest some dates, and we'll go with the majority. (But if no-one can manage ANY of the dates I'll obviously look at some more!) As for the venue, we can do it at the Cocket Hat again, or if anyone has any suggestions, just let me know!

Possible dates:
Sun 10th Feb
Sat 16th Feb
Sun 17th Feb

We'll probably meet in the afternoon about 2pm to avoid meal times? Unless anyone specifically wants to meet for lunch or tea?! Kids most definitely welcome! As I'll be taking my two along with us! Please feel free to make any suggestions to my proposals!
Would be great to have a good turn out, and it would be brilliant to put some faces to names!

So just state your preference to date/time & an idea of how many will be in your party. Many thanks in advance!!

Hi Mags

That sounds great we will definately come along. Mark can't do a Saturday but either of the Sundays would be good for us. Our 3 will be coming so any time would suit us. If it is pm then we could stay for tea if anyone wanted to.

Will probably see you at football and can catch up then.

Hi Mags

Happy new year and all the best to everyone for 2008

Aberdeen meet up sounds great. My hubby gets home for his four weeks on Wed 9th Jan and goes away again on Mon 4th Feb so he wont be able to make it but I can do Sat 16th Feb (might be a bit hungover though as I have a 30th birthday bash the night before!!).

Cheers for now
Lorna

Just bumping this up for everyone in the NE of Scotland! Still no specific date set yet....the last meet-up was a great success, so would be great if this one was too! Feel free to PM me if you have any queries!

Hello & welcome to PiO!! Yes, of course you can come! The more the merrier! I'm going to decide on a date tonight! (Still pondering on that one!) Are you ok for any the dates?
