Transport and weather permitting, I'll be there.

No problem Rich

I went on a forum meet a few years ago and, though folk were friendly, I felt a little out of the clique? Or being a newcomer, perhaps.

Sounds good, then. How many other newbies usually show up on average?

And, joking aside, how do I know who is who in the pub to recognise you guys?

How come there's about 4 pages of names, but only a few people going? No offence, but I reckon you will have a greater chance of attracting people to the meet if you cut down on the chitter chatter :)

I may pop in to meet you all .... sounds like fun! :hihi:

That's right I tend not to partake of alchohol at 7.30 in the morning

Looking forward to this, don't forget that Brut I won at the Christmas meet! :D

Mod note: Please save the chit-chat for the meet itself, and please stop insulting other users, even in jest. Ta.

I agree, I saw 60+ posts and thought this would be a well attended meet but all I see is drivel posts, and I shall wait for the final list to see who is coming as I cannot be bothered to work it out myself.

The mods must have fallen asleep with their usual

<--- chat room over there

True, 4 pages of in-jokes about Aunty Lin is unlikely to attract any new comers to this meeting

Take you point Barry and it will not happen again. Can we expect the pleasure of your company tomorrow?:D

BTW I am not related to MH, I have never met him

Ah, someone has hit the nail on the head at last !!!:rolleyes: Cheers Barry for mentioning that point.:)

Meets tonight 7:30 in Harlequin - anybody else care to join us?:D

May be a bit late tonight, stuck in Teesside at a meeting :-(

So... after all this banter, did anything happen last night?

Thanks to the regulars who turned up last night to my friends Pat, Sparkler and Rich and to Den. There will be no banter on thread for next meet which is on 20 Feb. I am doing my best to keep this meet going after taking over from Swami Dhyan and I made mistake on this and previous threads by rising to bait but I would like to see some of my forum friends at next meet - thanks

So... after all this banter, did anything happen last night?

If you are so interested in the event, why dont you attend the next one and stop leaving churlish posts towards a lady who is clearly putting time and effort into a long established venture.

You complain that a thread that neither hurts or offends anyone is taking up pages,then you post several contributions yourself that add nothing to the subject.

If you were just fishing for a bite,then consider me well and truly hooked,but please don't admonish a lady for trying to be sociable.

I used to attend the Harlequin meets when they used to be organised by Swami, but have been put off by the stupid banter that appears on these threads. It's not just me either, most of the other old regulars I am in touch with feel the same.

I used to attend the meets, but have been put off and so have some of the other old regulars by the stupid banter that appears on these threads.

You've never been to one since I've been doing them and exactly which regulars? You know what I don't know why I bother when I'm clearly so useless. Perhaps you'd like to get Swami to take them back over

Come on, you are being a bit dramatic now. No one said that you are useless or implied they didn't want you to organise the meets. I merely pointed out, the banter was killing the meets by putting potential attendees off.

Thank you.

It seems most of the banter you refer to is from one individual that has never attended a meet.
I would love to attend,but health matters prohibit me from doing so.
May i be so bold as to suggest you risk an hour or so from your leisure time and attend a meeting,then i,m sure we would both feel you would be qualified to comment on the effort put in by Swamis successor,maybe it could interest your fellow past attenders too.
