Just thought I’d run this by you all to see if you fancy having a combined Xmas/Joint Chapter/Maggy meet in Edinburgh one weekend in December (Perhaps one of the first two weeks in Dec so we don’t get too near to Xmas??).

I’ve PM’d George (Scotland CR) to see what he thinks, but he’s away for two weeks, so I thought I’d run it past you all to gauge opinion here. Maggy is also up in Edinburgh at the moment, so it could also be an opportunity to meet up with her.

It could be a one day meet for those not able to stay overnight (as Edinburgh’s do-able in a day for those of us travelling from the NE) but there is cheap hostel accommodation in the city centre for £16/night which I’d be happy to go for. Return trains from Newcastle are approx £20. Tim/Coz/Martina, not sure how much transport is from NW...?

There’s plenty to do (Castle, shopping/Xmas continental markets, Ghost walks) and it’s nice up there around Xmas too.

Anyway, if anyone fancies the idea, then stick your name below! Also, if anyone has ideas of other things to do in Edinburgh, then please say so!

It would be great to see one big FF group meet for Christmas, and though York would definitely be a great one, I think it'd be cool to finally get the North up with Scotland as we kept saying we would, before the new year.

Put me down as a maybe. I loved meeting George and Melissa at CE, but money may be tight as it's Xmas, I'll have just recently done the Gmex weekend, and I'll be doing my New Year in the Midlands, which I have to pay to get down to, too, so I'll have to see.

I did wonder whether something like this may be too close to Xmas....perhaps we could make it a Jan/Feb meet instead?

We could do. I'm still up for doing an Xmas meet at York/Leeds as we mentioned in an earlier thread 'cos that won't cost as much.

Yes, and it's also Martina's birthday at the start of Dec....perhaps we could do a more central meet before Xmas as a joint Martina/Xmas meal (somewhere that's doable in a day for everyone to keep down costs) and leave Edinburgh until after Xmas? thinking

Fair enough if people can't. Not sure if Maggy can come down to us, I'll ask her. I have a feeling wherever we do it'll have to be a night stopover for me, just because coming back via Manchester means being at Piccadilly by 10pm at the latest to get home to Southport, and that means missing the evening meal. Then again, I am fine to stayover till Sunday, no worries.

Still York then?

I'll get this thread title changed to Jan/Feb and PM George to say that Dec is a bit too close to Xmas for most of us to attend (which is fair enough).

hugs Thanks Maggy, but unfortunately Edinburgh is just too close to Xmas for people to make a big meet in December, which is a shame, but can't be helped. I hope you're having a good time up there and maybe we'll see you at another meet next year peace
