I hope this meet goes well for you all but just a few tips from someone who has organised a couple.
First thing, safety in meeting up with strangers is paramount. Remember that for every member reading MSE there are another two who haven't joined up but can still read the thread. I would suggest you find a central family style pub to meet up in so it suits non drinkers as well as those happy to sink a few
For the girls/ladies going on their own, see if you can swap mobile numbers with another that you feel happy with so you can text each other and aren't walking in on your own. Make sure someone at home knows where you are going too.
Secondly you'll find that probably only half who say they are coming will actually arrive so don't be too disappointed but you will find that those that do come along will enjoy meeting up with other MSE'rs. Unless those people who have come to the Edinburgh meet's have been lying to me0 -
Is there a time for this ? Do you think we could get Martin to put up the money to hire a hall or marque on the lawn.....errr ok just a thought lol !"The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts."
