Okay, let's start planning. Except, if eating pizza in my room does not count as FFE Meet, we'd need one for this year first. tongue

In that case I'd suggest Sweden because it will soon have Star Wars - The Exhibition in an untypable town. And psychology says that many of us will be more likely to come if there's an SW event involved in the meeting. batting

Other suggestions are very welcome, of course. Let's get this planned! grin

It would be great to have it in Sweden again, the problem is that the exhibit is in Örnsköldsvik. (If you want to pronounce it ask Senny about the sk-sound). It's quite expensive and not that easy to get there even for a Swede. The trains doesn't go there so it's either by car or by air, and the airport is so small that there are few flights and those are expensive.

I also think it would be better to plan something bigger for 2009 and make it good than trying to make some last minute arrangements for this summer.

7! worried

strange coincidence, I looked at 05's Sweden pictures again love Favorite EFFM yet. Screw Berlin, forget Pizza in Mel's room, never mention Paris and London (2) only had the unfair advantage of a Celebration

Whatever happened to Hong Kong anyway? tongue
Istanbul? I may or may not brush up on my Turkish tongue

Although we don't have many active FF in the south, I would love to have a EFFM there. Would it be possible to meet in a not-official-FF country? blush

But if that gets denied, I would suggest Croatia, which would be in the south, or BeNeLux or Denmark. happy

I'd be very happy if we'd have it in Sweden! Even though, as Obi Anne said, Örnsköldsvik is quite expensive to get to...
Denmark or BeNeLux might even be cheaper...
If we don't do it in conjunction with the exhibition, I'd rather see we made a better planned event for next year or in the autumn instead.

Senny, I promise to host the meet in Hong Kong the moment I win a fortune on the lottery! wink

I'd love to attend a meet in 2009, wherever it is. It's been way too long since I met you guys. hugs

We've just been in Brussels tongue Though there's plenty of stuff we didn't see, but that town is just crazy silly
Nice view from the Palace of Justice (I believe) though happy

I'd love to go to Brussels... I used to live there and I haven't been in back in many years. Only bad thing about it is that it often rains and there are far too many demonstrations all the time. (Well, I did live next to the Council biulding... wink )

Oh, and car in Brussels... it takes a while to learn how to get around. And the people can't drive either. You have to be slightly suicidal. And have some really good insurance. wink

Agreed! happy

Seriously, it would be very nice to have a meeting with the view of the Bosphorus, and besides, Turkey needs to have an international SW fan event.

Wether I can go or not depends on my tution fees for the next year (which will change apparently) and how much money I manage to earn this summer. I would like to go becaouse I managed to miss out on all meetings, even Celebration. sad

But if I can choose, it'd be Brussels.

I could probably do anywhere in Europe rather easily, but Belgium seems boring. If it's BeNeLux, I'd prefer Amsterdam or Eindhoven, or something. Turkey might be fun, but I'd be up for somewhere completely odd and not-even-attempted-to-start-a-FF like Estonia, Iceland or Russia.

I would say Belarus, but we'd probably be deported tongue

I have. It's nice. Except if you arrive in the middle of the night in a car, and discover that all the streets are one-way and there's nowhere to park and you can't find the hotel and when you finally find it you can't get to it because you happen to be on a one-way street heading AWAY from it and when you manage to find a street that's going the opposite direction it doesn't pass the hotel and you go crazy and drive into a canal.

(Okay, that last thing never happened.)
