Forum get togther

Hang on there Annie...!!!

Yon photo of your wee doll is a proper ginger..!!!!!

LOL..!

Now, back to the beginning of the topic. Is anybody seriously interested in a venue, meeting or just a good old fashioned session...?? I'm back in Europe for a while (hence can attend) and think it would be a very beneficial operation to put faces to names, network...etc...



Regards,

Andy.

P.S. Perhaps the forum can hire a few door staff members to keep apart those who have slated eachother on the site...lol

Some interesting calculations for those looking to go on a bender and swap stories (sorry.... those looking to network with other like minded professionals)

UK based meet......

Assuming a two day affair with travel and accom.... a guess at costs!!

3-5 Packs of fags (apologies to the non-smokers who cant appreciate that a gathering of souls traditionally involves some sort of smoking ritual.... and that its frowned upon not to participate in many cultures)

UK cost: 20-25 GBP

Serbia cost: 3-5 GBP (less if you have the lungs of a blacksmith and dont care what you smoke)
Serbia incidentally is chosen completely at random by methods known to one and all.... map and pin!! [ the worldwide map is too far away from my desk!!]

Drinks at the average rate of consumption allowing for toilet breaks and the odd slice of pizza.

UK costs: 50-60 GBP

Serbia costs: 15-20 GBP

Accommodation...... hmmm! tough one to compare.. B+B/ Travel lodge..... mates wardrobe!!

Assuming you have no mates or that their wardrobe is full of other mates (or not)

UK costs: 30-50 GBP

Serbia costs: 15-25 GBP (Serbian wardrobes being rather small and Serbian girlfriends/wives being 1: Rather pregnant and a tad on the tetchy side or...2: Female.....nuff said!! however Serbian balconies and Security Company offices are often available as temporary LUPs for free)

Travel costs. Since unlike here in Serbia.... you guys do not live all in the same village, one would assume that some mode of transport be necessary and costs thereof i would estimate as an average.

UK costs: 40-60 GBP (This assumes that you do actually return from whence you came. It follows therefore that should you decide to stay in your newly found home.....this cost is halved)

Flight to Serbia (actually Budapest coz its cheaper and only 3 hrs for us to drive to pick you up, 5 hrs at the border explaining on your behalf why your passport pic looks like a Swedish porn star and why you like to travel to all those 'interesting' places off the beaten track.!! Another hour exchanging stories about derring do over a tube or three before we set off!!)

from as little as 48GB via Ryanair/Easyjet/Aerlingus


So........ to recap

Costs of aforementioned intellectual gathering in the UK
195 GBP

Costs of same gathering in beautiful surroundings on the Costa del Danube
98 GBP

Did i mention the Ranges and the Girls?!! Yeah..... i think i did...

HAVE A NICE DAY Y'ALL
