Wescountry Meetup!
posted January 19, 2018 7:31 AM   RSS

Babbers! Luvvers! I have repatriated to my motherland of Devon, and brought chrismear with me. I know we're a bit more far-flung down here, but would anyone be up for a meetup?
I'm thinking Exeter, ostensibly because it's kind of in the middle, but mainly because it's closest to me :)

Drinks, maybe some food - venue suggestions welcome! I'll start the bidding with On The Waterfront, because I like pizza.

Date to be in May now due to being snowed off!

Ooh. I'm probably going to be in Exeter around 19th / 20th March. Don't arrange it around me, but I will be keeping an eye on the date.

(And I've just read Tom Cox's new book about Devon, so particularly looking forward to going there again.)

Well, we'll need a date, and those seem as good as any!

Confirmed I'll be in Exeter for the evening of Monday 19th March, if anyone can make that date.

Ok lets settle in for that date. Yay!

Whilst we're talking ... any recommendations for things to do in Exeter? I did the RAMM last time I visited. Was wondering about the cinema museum this time. Anyone have any other thoughts?

Well.... if this snow keeps coming down I guess we're probably all best not travelling tomorrow.

Would Tuesday evening work for anyone, or shall we plan for a date well past snowmageddon?

I'm waiting to see what the weather's like in the morning - coming by rail from south coast. Probably can't do Tuesday evening though will be around in the day (assuming I make it to Exeter) so could do luncheon or coffee.

I'll be in Devon again in either two months or four months (regular two-monthly meetings, but I don't come to all of them).

Yes, I'm not going to make it this evening, possibly not tomorrow.

Lets postpone! Snow is a time for staying in and hunkering down. Lets try and meet in May!

I'm just leaving to travel to Exeter now, so I hope the snow is melting. Agree better to make it May though.
