UK South Meetup - Easter time
 
Ok, just got round to posting, but how does a South England meetup sound?

I will be in minehead from 3rd - 8th April (2010). and was hoping for a meetup on either:
Dates
  • Sunday 4th
  • Monday 5th
  • Tuesday 6th April
  • Wednesday 7th April
(Either/any is good for me.....)

Time: - I'm thinking evening is better for most, but not too late so people can get home?
So i can get there from 1pm and stay till about 10pm - but would rather a 2/3 hour slot in there somewhere

Location choices (Quick overhead map link) :
  • Bridgewater
  • Taunton
  • Tiverton
  • Barnstaple
  • (Exeter at a push)

Please state your date/time and location preferences :D - and hopefully we can set a date in the diary :D
Everyone is welcome with any device, or no device :D (Or people who want to see the N900 in action!)
I can bring my laptop if people want to see how i code in python/qt... (Bearing in mind i am new to it and i blag my way around!)

Anyway! - let the comments, suggestions and clever people roll :D :D :D

Nuffin clever from here. I'm working all those days (including Easter Day).

My trusty n900 tells me that I could possibly skive off early on Tuesday 7th as I don't actually have any appointments that afternoon (yet).

However I am over 100 miles west of Exeter (yes there is life out here, though whether it's civilised life...). Obviously, the further West the better: Bridgwater is a three hour drive each way.

bump....

Anyone else in the south area who would fancy a meet up? :D :D

Kathy - are you free on the saturday? (3rd)
I'm aiming to get to minehead for about 3pm, but could head out for a few hours after... (Need to have a bit of a change, as it will be a 4/5 hour drive in the morning)

Great idea noobmonkey, I couldn't get there but the thought of a group of N900s in Barnstaple gave me a chuckle. Hope you guys make it.

I'm voting for Tues 7th, around teatimeish. If I quit work at lunchtime, I can get up the A30 a fair stretch.

The question being how far west? Would you guys consider coming as far as the Little Chef at Jn 27?

For that matter, this is a Very Useful Website.

(and yay! for post #2000 being a community one)
