April or May would prob be good for me too! Whereabouts would be a convenient place for us northerners to meet then? Wacken has an awesome line-up this year! At The Gates, Carcass, Children of Bodom, Exodus, Hatebreed, Killswitch Engage, Obituary, Opeth, Soilwork and The Haunted to name a few choice examples...
Git. Not jealous at all btw!! Well I'd suggest Manchester but then I would I guess Leeds is fairly central-ish? How bout one of the bank holiday weekends? Presumably the first one as Black Oracle won't be in the country on the second, lol Mmm, nice *rubs thighs* Seen Hatebreed live? I don't enjoy their newer albums as much but they put on an amazing show. Killswitch are cracking as well. And I missed Children Of Bodom when they supported Slayer in 06, gutted. Walked in as the last chord got strummed and they went offstage
Well I could try stuffing you into my suitcase, but then i'd have to chop you up into iddy biddy little pieces... It'll be my first time there. So, I'm not expecting to find any toys so easily, but hopefully we'll be enjoying temples and tempura! Sat or Sun, 3rd or 4th May should be okay for me. I'm fine getting to either Manchester or Leeds, i go to both fairly frequently, tho' i know Leeds better. Is anyone else wanting to join us? Anyone? C'mon i know there were more Yorkshire folk around 'ere.
mmmm tempura *drool* who you going with, parents? other half? mates? Being as we've so far got people from Hudders, Halifax and Manc... I'd suggest Manc actually, cos a) it's broad as it's long pretty much for you too and b) it's well easier for me Oh and the Sunday would be better for me - the Friday (2nd) is my bday and I suspect the Saturday will be mostly spent in bed lol
*Wipes drool from Locustreign's lips.* With family, my parents and sister. One of our yearly family holidays. Your birthday's in May too? So's mine (14th). I take it u're gonna be staying out late on the friday then? Manchester is okay for me, tho' i'm more familiar with the Piccadily than the Victoria side of the city. Sunday 4th May is okay too. Maybe we should put this on the get togethers forum to see if anyone else would like to join us?
We got to go to... erm... France. And Skegness. I'm well jealous lol, one day I might get to go to Japan (I'll send you with a shopping list haha) Not sure yet. A mate's band is playing on the Saturday so that'll be my "proper" celebration, we'll see what happens though It's OK, I know the whole place like the back of my hand! hehe. As for posting it - shall we wait to see if more than 3 people are interested from here first, otherwise we may as well just go down the pub lol
France and Skegness sound good. I'd like to be able to visit more nearer places too. My family are always going to to the other side of the globe and never anywhere closer to home for holidays. You can try giving me a shopping list, but i ain't counting on having much opportunity to go toy hunting out there. My family'll want to be going to see tourist attractions and eat food. Fine with me.
While on the other hand I've never been out of Europe hehe. Wanna swap families for a year? (not that I've been on hols with my family for about 10 years but, it's the thought ) I was kidding, mostly Still, if you're at a temple and the monks (hmm, that's Thailand actually isn't it, not to worry) happen to be selling a MISB black zarak in the giftshop, you know who to call I'm all for the pub too. Realistically, a bunch of people who've never met each other, what else are we gonna do? Either that or Laser Quest, which has shut down
i'm from shirley/weston/fareham. lol live in shirley with parents, pretty much live with the girlfriend in weston, and the rest of it working in segensworth. so you aint far away! drink in the lockey when ya home? switchgear, that5 stinking shop done my head in they were bitching that i didn;t sell much, i told them i aint forcing people to buy phones and bullying them into contrcts they dont want. doing factory work easy money.......... we sorting out a beer for all are southern crew? black oricle, i'm at auto assembly too should be a giggle. see ya there all
Weston? That's my current location with the family, by the infants school. Mayhap I'll see you around then... Oh hell yar! Not sure when you fancy doing it but it's gotta be evenings after the kids have hit the hay. Which venue? Something central for the various chaps considering Pompey, Fareham/Locks Heath. Bursledon or further on?
Cool, very close then. Yeah, I was in there a few weeks ago, it's not as good as it used to be though.
not from the UK but me and another Swedish Tf collector and member here are going to AA in August. Would be cool fi we could get a tfw2005 gathering on AA aswell.
Hey, I'm a May birthday too - May 1st. Maybe TF collecting has something to do with the Taruian thing for hoarding stuff.
is that the one on weston lane? thats where i am in weston lane, i'll keep my eye out for ya, if you see a white escort with a big decepticon logo on the back thats me! i work nights which is a prob, but i do get days off during the week, and every other weekend, so its just a matter of when. venue wise, i'm easy. lets see how many hands we can see for the southern softy social. raise you hand if ya in!
