I'm up for a meet and greet. I guess where we could go depends one approximately where, geographically speaking, we could have it and how many people would want to go, and what they would want to do? How about a group trip to Alton Towers, then everyone goes back to the same hotel??

Having suggested that, some of the members may be to old and brittle to take part ) I'm such a cheeky Essex bboy sometimes!

havin spoken to a few of the Brits we all think that it is a good idea for this to happen - so need to think of when would be best?

Summer? which month?
How long do you think you can come? a week? or is that too long?
Where abouts? somewhere everyone can access cheaply and easily...

Jus a few thoughts? anybody else for any input... lets get this in motion!! and everybody is welcome

I had a great time living in England as an exchange student and my wife is dying to visit. If it weren't for the upcoming baby, we'd consider a trip across the pond this year. Perhaps next time... Cheers

House party. My place. 3rd March. Easy access from the M4/M5. Ample parking. Pubs and clubs literally next door. Spare room in the basement.

May be slightly too many drugs than you're used to though.
