Default Houston gathering

Seen that there are quite a few newbies on here that have descended upon Houston and the surrounding areas. Shall we have a meet up? A few of us have met before and had a good old chinwag. I'm happy to organize it if people are interested. Let me know!

Personally, I think we should have our inaugural BE USA-Branch National Conference in Houston!

Major airport hub, flights usually on time.

Drivable from Austin and San Antonio and Dallas.

I was in Houston a month or so back to take the SO to IAH.... cheaper than flying from Austin! I seem to get there several times a year anyway.

Yes, but mostly so we could sit there and take the piss.

Houston has gained a certain notoriety in this hallowed forum...

A fine idea - count us in. We can all compare our trampoline/hedgehog exclusions at the same time. If it ends up being in Katy again, how about The Public House in Villagio? Or could go further towards town for the real Houstonites...

Quite nice weather in Houston this time of year compared to Massachusetts.

huh - could have sworn I'd replied to this, but can't find it now....I'd be up for pretty much anytime - lunch or evening with notice so I can sort out babysitters.....flexible on location - wherever is central for everyone - downtown? City Center (BW8/I-10). I'm in Katy too, so Dougsters suggestion of Villagio works well for me......

We're on Memorial Drive. Villagio works well for us too.

If you're all meeting up again after March/April time (should be over by then), we'd love to pop along too!
