GNamer Meetup Thread

I think an airbnb is the way to go - we'll have a lot more freedom with an airbnb and price-wise it usually work out cheaper than a Travellodge or a hotel anyway.

This place here (for example) is only £160 per night, which one you've split it up between 6 or 7 of us ends up being a little over £26 at most. I think in most scenarios we'll have to have somebody sleeping top and tail in a double bed, but we've had to do that before in the Travel Lodge anyway. Have a gander over on airbnb and see what you think.

I'm down for heading over on the Friday night and spending both Friday and Saturday night there this time - it'd give us a bit more time to play with over previous years. I understand that won't work for everyone, but it'd be cool if we had even a few folks keen for that.

Bunk beds? YASS!

Air BnB for sure, then all round to Balladeer's gaff for a top-and-tailing gangbang.

I'd be up for heading down on the Friday and staying until the Sunday night. Hopefully folk would be up for heading out too - I'm happy to play games and that, but not just do that only.

Aye also up for heading down on the Friday as well, when on skype the other day Andy brought up this arcade place that looks like it's well worth going to.

Only slightly bizarrely, my wife was looking into that arcade for forumites to go to once I told her about the next meetup possibly being in Manchester.

Please note: Andy is not my wife.

If you say so bbz

I'm up for reception drinks!

Also: any other form of drinks. And being terrible at arcades.

RIGHT! The 14th it is then, hopefully mas can get it off but at least we can now plan to get stuff booked (travel, air bnb etc) instead of going around in circles for another week or more.

I'll talk to my boss tomorrow and see what she says.

Could you get it off? I know everyone has said the date it settled but I'd hate for you to miss out at my expense.

Don't think I've been to that arcade but I can always do some... research.

I've been off ill but it's very unlikely I will be able to get off, why I didn't put it down as I date I could do in the first place.

Might as well go back to the 7th then if everyone wants to and there isn't any other suitable dates.

Asked and it's a No from me on the 14th

Shall we lock in the 7th, 100% sure then? Would you be alright popping over even for an afternoon or something Smurf?

I might be able to wing something, definitely won't be able to get it off work but depending on the shift I'm working I'm sure I could show my face.

Locked in!

Going to give this a little nudge. I suspect the accommodation will be cheaper the earlier we book it, so would suggest looking at Airbnbs sooner rather than later.

Are we all set on going to Manchester on the weekend of 7th July? I'm up for that, but does anybody have any major objections? Also, is treesmurf still able to maybe come along for a few pints?

Probably, all dependant on what time I have to work, I could in theory still come and then just disappear to work for 8 hours on the Friday and Saturday.

If we're good for that date, I'll have a gander over the weekend at airbnbs. If any of you lot find a decent one too, post a link up in here so we can get to choosing a place to stay.

Is anybody still up for doing this? I know it's a bit more expensive now than it would have been last month, but it still shouldn't be too extortionate if we sort something out soon.

You lads really are shite at organising a party without me, huh?

I was waiting for you to do it, ya cock!

I thought the date was agreed? Just a case of booking everything, its more on everyone else than me as I can literally just turn up in an hours notice.
