If this Good weather holds up maybe we should start looking at a beach party ?

A beach party? Not just a gathering on a beach?

i don't trust either our organizational skills to do this nor, crucially, the weather.

altho, once underway, it could potentially be fun.

I don't think our organisational skills are that bad, are they.....?

Well, do we want to have a meet for Indiana Jones, or combine this with Sie's birthday (mentioned earlier in this thread, which would take us into June?)

yeah all sounding good even though may is withering away and by the end of the month my parents will visit and (that reminds me...) and i might not have time to go places and see people/films.

no, our org skill aren't that bad but beach parties when none of us live close to an actual beach could be kinda hard to pull off.

Why where do you live ?
I'm sorry to sound rather off But Where is the mass of people that made this site - It running rather slow aint it I thought the plan was to bring some life back into FFUK N but it seams we have slipped back into our old ways of Pub's and the cinema. Not getting out and raising the banner ie charity events or days out.

No One wants to camp out or go to the beach ok fine but what then was the point of the mass MSN chats about bring life back on here !!

WAKE UP

Well, I'm trying my best, but when only a handful of people respond to ideas, it's kinda difficult to arrange anything.....

Sie: If you want to suggest a possible weekend for your birthday meal/cinema (if that's what you want to do) then please do. If you're looking at June, then we have the following:

7 & 8 June
14 & 15 June
21 & 22 June
28 & 29 June

It may be an idea to start a new thread for that, so as not to confuse matters.

If anyone would like to suggest doing something this month, then shout up. I know there's a troop this weekend, so people may be busy with that, so that leaves us with:

24 & 25 May
31 May & 1 June

i'm fairly awake, thanks a lot, i live in a house in stockport which isn't anywhere close to a beach. the closest would be southport or thereabouts and i can only go there by train.

i remember a beach in newcastle that was all pebbly. nice for walks but not necessarily good for picknicking.

i like going to beaches and doing stuff but a) it requires nice weather and b) a plan b, as i wouldn't want to be stuck on some beach for hours in the light drizzle this country is famous for with nowhere else to go.

we are doing pubs and cinema because that's fairly controllable environment, i suppose.

all of that said, i don't think i can make a beach or elsewhere party this may because i will simply be stuck with my parents and other things that have occurred in my life and will occur or whatever.

i'm all happy meeting and preparing but i turn a bit sour when i'm accused of inaction. i'm still posting to the best of my ability (not all that much) but i'm also a realist, some would say pessimist.

I was thinking 14 & 15th might be a good idea so as to accommodate some of the guys who are trooping on the 7th and 8th (I may in fact be there on the 8th too).

But it's a good idea for a separate thread.

OK, Sie, do you want to take the lead with the thread for your birthday (if that's OK)?




There are people who are more active than others and I'm certainly not going to point fingers as to who goes to more meets or whatever. The fact is that people have other things going on in their lives (family/work/Uni/money etc) and all we can do is our best to try and meet up as much as possible, whether it's for a day or a weekend peace

hypnotized sleep

grin I'm awake - promise! grin

As for where they are - I think we all know where they are (mostly) batting , but its just a shame that they dont still do FF social meets anymore - trooping regularly is good fun, but its equally fun just to kick back without costumes still from time to time. Even though I love costuming myself, theres still time for friends and fun when not in costume.

I agree! Finances and time permitting, which is why we all have difficulties balancing meets with other committments...(and the bank balance too!)

and PS. too - Suzi - I think you are doing a great job juggling everything thats going on with everyone! applause
