    More than likely just because I'll be having to save lots of drinking money for when I go out there.

    It would all be dependant on the date I suppose because its definatly something I'm interested in being part of.

    For all those interested, how could we promote our meet, and what activities could we arrange at Alton Towers?

    I would be happy to promote it on starwarsfan.co.uk

    Not sure if stormtrooper armour and the rides would go together too well :p might be slightly 'unsafe' hehe

    Its it turns out to be before the 01 June then i would be able to go.. if not, well tough luck for me :p

    it would be excellent, if you could promote it on your site. These dates are only provisional, so could be amended depending on fan feedback.

    let us get planning,

    Alton Towers beginning of July, Yay or Nay?

    Is seems reasonable that this should be fairly low key meet up. As our first main meet, it will give us a chance to introduce ourselves to each other, and plan future meets and events (the plan for 2007/2008).

    does low key mean not doing the costume thing?

    i would like people to attend costume.

    Low key means, people should not expect a huge meet, with 100s of fans and loads of events and activities. As this will hopefully be the 1st of many meets, they will grow and become better as we progress. I just am just stating this, so people do not get over excited and expect a UK CIII, which I would very much like, even though it is near impossible.
    We should by all means try and make it as crazy and as fun possible though.

    lol - no - low key is cool :D A chance for just the FFUK'ers to get together. If there's one thing we've learnt from the marathon there are quite a few other (non-FFUK) fans out there.......!

    I know - I couldn't believe it either! :D

    I would like it to be a large scale event, but this will give us the opportunity we need to plan our larger events.

    I think start small and work our way up. There's less to go wrong with a trip to Alton Towers than there is trying to organise something even a fraction of the size of C3.

    I see Alton Towers as a first step. A place to meet up and get to know each other and have a good time. If we can get some of us there in costume then there will be great photo opportunities (though I think armour and long cloaks may be a no-go on some rides).

    If this goes well we can maybe think about doing it again in the future and maybe even consider something larger and more Star Wars based.

    Well the current plan is early July. It's after college and uni exams are over, but before the school holidays and uni graduation days.

    Will have to be a weekend though as many people have work.
