I'll force myself to talk to him,as long as you talk to my wife! Lol.
I hope there are a few guys going along because being the only guy in a pub full of women might not be as appealing as it sounds!

Who's all pretty much a certainty to be there,and count your partners if theyre coming so we can see what sort of numbers we're talking about.

So far theres
Me and Julie
acbh2 x 2
scotschick x 2 ....

As Andrea says, i was at the last meet. Have been to one or two, some ppl you never see again , became friendly with a few ,who only gone and bloomin emigrated , but unfortunately not to Melbourne.
Also met sandra at the last meet who is now in Melbourne and really looking forward to seeing her when we get there

Have met Gill aka Herchook at a few meets, and we're quite paly now , don't see her 'outside' of meets, would say mainly due to the fact we live a bit apart from each other

We have never met anyone before and are really looking forward to it. Really pleased that blokes and girls (sorry sheilas) are going as we are planning on making a night of it and will hopefully make friends for the future. Will be a good laugh. At least now we can book our accommodation. Look forward to meeting you all in 2 weeks.

Have met Sharon45 before as we both live in the same town. She was really nice and hopefully we will meet up again soon. Don't know if she is coming to the meet.

My god can't believe have had to edit this twice, the is obviously affecting me already. LOL
