I'm sorting out my diary for 2008 and thought it might be useful for planning to flag up dates and organisers for meets that we might be attending and/or organising.

Townley Park, Burnley

Ok for a mini meet...

Chell & Ady

Are you up for organising a day meet at Townley.

All you need to do is check that we can get bongos in and that they are open....and if the cafe is open?

cheers

H

No problem

Leave it with me..

I'll get on the phone tomorrow and see what I can come up with.

It will be a pleasure...

Thanks for asking

Shall I put the feelers out for interested parties?

Chell

Its always a bit chicken & egg with meets.

If you ask for interest then you get so many wanting different dates/times/places then it makes it difficult to come to a descision.

My advice is call the meet at a time/date/place which suits you and invite everyone/anyone to turn up. Peeps can always let you know if they are coming or not.

But PLEASE call the meet on a seperate thread so as not to bog down this post.

As long as you avoid school holidays and saturdays(for day meets) and keep it central(ish) a few will always turn up.

cheers

Hi Harry

Please can you add Mel and Adams Bongo Wedding Bash

19th -20th September- New Farm Winsford

The site is booked thanks to Storm

Hi Harry, this is probably the best event not on the calendar.

If your intrested in anything that moves, you need to be there both days, it's massive.

Another link that don't work. Can't understand why peeps don't try them out in preview before posting them. I always do, at least I think so.

Strange...it worked for me last night but doesn't work now!

Watch this space or fancy meeting up for further details.
