Vancouver Island meet-up
 

So how about a February meet-up then?
Would be great to put a face to your names ~ jempee, ellsie, Investor, me, & anyone else who'd care to join in (can't remember everyones name :() :beer: :beer:

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Sounds good. We should have arrived by end of January and pretty much any date in February would be ok.

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Hi Folks,

Feb is no good but looks like we are coming on hols to VI in July....

It would be fab if we were able to have a meet-up while we are there :D

Early days but hopefully we will be there for 2 weeks in the summer :cool:

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Hi............its another date for July then, the more of these :beer: :beer: the merrier as far as I'm concerned :)
Plus I will be on my summer leave from work........10 WEEKS not bad eh? (by Canadian standards!!)

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Yep, keep me informed, definatly interested. Have a few rellies coming over some time in July but no probs for me. Have a few English friends also in my local area, shall i invite them as well???

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

How about Feb? :)

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Feb would be good, I can't do July as we will be in the throes of tourist season.

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

We'd definately like to meet up with you all in February - as long as it is after the 4th as I'm popping back to the motherland (to stock up on goodies!).

Where were you thinking of meeting up? Victoria, or someone more central to everyone?

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Hi there :D

I think ellsie is in Campbell River, I'm gonna ask 'gooding' who is in Courteney, Investor will be here in Nanaimo & jempee is at Cobble Hill so we're pretty spread out............far be it from me to make the decisions ;) but how about we keep it central this time & if we all enjoy it we could take turns meeting in each persons town/city? :)

Apologies to anyone I've forgotten......(Burt?)

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

I am in CR and it's raining! Is Nanaimo most central, reading between the lines?:confused: :rolleyes:

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

LOL......could be :o

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

How does Feb 25th sound :thumbup:

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Will check and get back. Is that a Sunday?

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Yep it is, most people fancied the 18th or 25th.........either works for me :)

I think the Escapea is off to blighty & I'm not sure if he/she'll be back for the earlier date...........Escapea???

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

25th sounds ok to me. we are moving on the 2nd feb so unless anything goes wrong!! we should be good for that day.:thumbup:

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Hi - 25th is good with us. And I'm am off back home next week (hurray - I'm going to see how many M&S custard tarts it is possible to eat in a week...! :D ) but I'm back on the 4th - so we could also make the 18th date.

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

I'll make this sticky for you for a little while. If you haven't done so yet don't forget to add your meet-up to the calendar. We've added a new feature, people can now RSVP for get togethers so you have a better idea who is going to attend.

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Thanks Sue :thumbup:

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Just out of interest banana hammock did you ask the MODS to put this up here or were they just psychic?


Good idea MODS :thumbup:

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Just psychic ;)

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Hi there, we are going to be visiting the Island then, any idea how long would it take to drive from Campbell River to Nanaimo?

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

About an hour and a half maybe a little less.;)

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Are you gonna join us gloveman?
The more the merrier :D

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

We're going to try to be there but we are only on the Island for a week and our realtor has lots planned for us and there is lots we want to do. So if we can fit it in we will but won't really know for sure until we are there. Hopefully see you soon.

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

It has been so long since I have been on this site! Too busy and settled into our life here on the island.
For all that think the wait for immigration seems forever, once you are here, time flies,. I used to to spend every day on the site once upon a time.

Just to say we will be attending on 25th and coming down from Courtenay , so anyone looking at moving to this area or surrounds, we look forward to telling you all we know. Love it her, and will never return to old life now. See you all on 25th

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

Hello, we're hopefully moving to Campbell River/Courtenay area soon - glad to hear you like it so much.

Re: Vancouver Island meet-up
 

See you all tomorrow peeps :thumbup: looking forward to meeting you 'in the flesh!!' :rofl: Hopefully this horrible white stuff falling from the sky will disappear by then :o
