2006 PT meeting in UK?

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

Any idea where this meeting would take place? Wouldn't London be great? Maybe that we could participate too then? Well, that's if my health doesn't go downhill to fast...! I would LOve to meet so many PT'ers

Nobody interested in a meeting in BELGIUM ??? Lots of great hotels nearby my place! we could visit Ghent, Bruges, etc...!

[Randi]

What a great idea! But yes, where should it be?

How about The Cotswolds as part of it? I'm sure Americans would love it!! I know I do!

Ya think Terry will get <bored> drivin around the
drop-off loop at the airport - for a week?

Maybe he could just pull into a couple spots
inna long-term parkin lot.

My parent's plan was to go to the UK in May, 2007 for the Chelsea Flower Show. Aparently its worth seeing.

The plan is to stay half the time in London and the other half in the Cotswalds. I'm part of the trip...yay!

But...They just bought a 1.something million dollar house two weekends ago, so I'm not sure if 2007 is going to be on. We'll see.

I'd love to go to the UK, even more so to meet some wonderful PTers!!!

Phred!

The Cotswolds - you are talking fairytale land!

Start saving those pennies (and dimes and quarters)!

Where there is a will - THERE IS A WAY!

Can you just imagine being together with Lynne, Chris, Karen, Randi and Lut!!! Having some scones and clotted cream together with a nice spot of tea? MMMMM,

[slleipnir]

Ohh, how I would love to go! Is England far from Scotland? I would love to see scotland....*dreams*

I'm so jealous of everyone who has people close by for all these meetings. I don't think ANYONE lives near me, so I can never have a meeting. If I have money whenever this one is, I'd really like to go. I doubt I'll ever go to an Ohio meeting simply because I'm to nervous to fly with Zeke, and I won't be going without him.

Oh boy would I love to go to UK and meet all the PT people... but I can't, my parents would have no means to get me an airplane to UK

All this post about the UK, I would love to come and see a bit more of the USA! So far I've only seen northern Florida, I would love to see the Big Apple! And the Grand Canyon would be amazing. We're never satisfied with our home countries are we?! LOL!


Uabassoon, where abouts are you going? I can help you out with places to see if you like, I probably know the area. I hope you have a great time!

My hostel is in Victoria, which from what I see is pretty much central london. I know for sure that I want to go to the London Aquarium and Dali Universe. I also plan on going clubbing! Then doing some very touristy things like riding the big red bus and going to see a show But I'll have a week to see things so I'm up for suggestions!

The hostel is also near the tube so it looks like I shouldn't have much trouble getting around.

Just for you Lut, from earlier in the thead.

Alexa and I booked our hostel tonight! I still don't have my plane ticket but we are looking to buy it VERY soon We booked the hostel because there was only one private double room left and this hostel just looked perfect for us. It's a youth hostel (ages 18-35) so I'm looking forward to meeting new people from all over.

just a quick question is there any meetings in Canada or Ontario?????

[Randi]

I haven't been there myself yet, but I think you should try The London Eye, you have a pretty good view from up there.

Also, I think you'd enjoy Neils Yard in Covent Garden - if it still exists.

You must go for a stroll along Kings Rd. Take some time to explore it all, there are really very special shops and cafe's.

The tube is a really good and fast way of getting around - although it's not that cheap to travel in the UK anymore. I've heard that the original red buses have all been changed, so they have doors now - what a shame!! It was so nice to be able to hop on and off whenever they stopped. There must be some left!

I'll try to think of more places and sights to see.

Maybe someone here can help me with this. While I'm there I wouldn't mind taking a day trip to another city. What cities near London make for a good day trip?

[Uabassoon]

I have a plane ticket! I don't even think I can explain how excited I am, I've wanted to go to London for as long as I can remember. I still can't believe that this is real! I get into London June 28th at 8:00 pm, then I leave London Thurs July 6th at 9:00 am. I celebrated by buying a rain jacket today as I don't own one since it doesn't rain in Arizona!

Glasgow and Edinburgh!!! However, if you are determined to get back to London every night, then Oxford would probably be my suggestion too. Nothing else comes immediately to mind, but I'm sure there are others who know the area better than I do. A good website for train tickets is www.thetrainline.co.uk. You can get an idea of journey times etc.

It is now almost definite that I will be in London for a few days during the first week of July. HURRAY HURRAY HURRAY!! So count me in! The London Aquarium sounds a great place to meet up. I've never been before, so it will be good to see it.
