The GNamer Forum Meetup 2: Let's Meet Up Again

Fine by me. If we're looking at who's the most responsible person with everyone's funds, my money's on Zero. Almost literally.

What's the deadline going to be on this? It's all very dependent on my brothers birthday right now and he's being a useless bastard at sorting out the deets.

Well, like I've said to Muss and Cappa before, no deadline but if you're late you might be relegated to sleeping on the floor and getting some rounds in.

I don't have a Paypal. If I'm to be the money man, all o'y'all will have to transfer funderoos into my compte bancaire.

It's not much difference really, I only suggested paypal because of how rarely my bank account is in the black

I'll hand you the cash in person, hope you don't mind coppers.

If I'm the money man then you're all going to have to transfer money via this really nice Nigerian Prince who just emailed me recently.

So, shall we get this sorted then? I'm up for anything so long as I have a bed and bathroom. (NB: if you're going to room with me, I'm probably going to be the dull bastard who goes to bed early, based on last time. Although this time I won't have to escape early, so that's something.)

I've been stupidly busy arranging a stag do (I'm the best man for a wedding!) coming up in April, so I'd totally forgotten about this! If somebody wants to find us a place to stay, I'm ready and set to book up.

Bit late to the debate but I'm rather fond of sleeping bags so the bed situation is fine with me if they were limited.

Gents, I'm afraid to say that it's getting a bit close for my liking. If the thread doesn't move in the next week, I'll probably panic and book a Premier Inn room. They did us all right last year!

If nobody more sensible beats me to it, I'mma sort this on my day off. Balla's not wrong . . .

Classic leave it to the last minute GNamer but aye agreed that we need to get a move on with this being booked.

Aye, let's get this on. If someone wants to look up a good place for us to be (I believe an AirBnB (capitalisation seems OK ) was mentioned), I'd be happy to finance until y'all can pay me back. The looker-upperer has until April 6th to make a recommendation that we all agree on.

How many of us are going in total? If I recall it was either 6 or 7... if it's any more than that it's going to be slim pickings.

This one looks decent I think: https://www.airbnb.co.uk/rooms/12378323?checkin=13-05-2017&checkout=14-05-2017&guests=8&adults=8&s=ZG-8ZQtp

It works out at £60 each at most if there's only 6 of us - I'd get the ball rolling on that one ASAP if we're keen because the booking process can take up a day or so as you have to be approved the property owner for a stay. It's crazy central too - thoughts? You can cancel up to 5 days before your stay, so it might be an idea to jump on it even if we've not had the whole gang get back to us.

If you're okay for booking Zero, I could get my stay money to you ASAP too.

That mentions only it's available for 1 night only, wouldn't we need more than that?

Potentially - I'll only need the Saturday, myself.

We're only staying for a night (right?) so it would be check in on the Saturday, stay over and check out Sunday morning and potter about like a few of us did last time.

It's definitely the 13th/14th we're doing, right?

Ahh that does sound right, was just thinking we might need a wee bit more freedom but the check in/out times seem fine.

Aye, from 3pm is fine as we meet up and have some lunch before we check in, especially as it's a very central spot.

For a while I was talking about booking friday-monday or something. If it's a huge bump in price, probably not worth it.

That one sounds good, and I could have £120 over to Zero a week tomorrow.

Sounds like I should snap it up, then! On the morrow, I will do it.

Blimey, this AirBnB booking lark is a bit strenuous. It seems like I need the e-mail address of everyone who's going so I can send them the itinerary in a bit? Could all intended guests send me an MP with your e-mail address on it, please, and I'll pick up the booking tomorrow morning?

Not sure if I've actually said in the thread, but I'm definitely up for this now. MP sent.

Thanks for that, Crumpleton Peck, but that place has gone. I'm going to check again for accommodation tomorrow morning, but if someone can do it quicker than me, that would be appreciated!
