Hi folks
Well, this is just a provisional idea, but it's about time we all got together to listen to each other's stuff and drink some beer.
We would probably be looking at some time in the summer, located somewhere relatively central. So, if you're interested, have something wonderful you want to show the world, just fancy meeting other like minded folks, have a venue available, or whatever, post away. 🙂

I'd be up for it, especially if it's that hall near Ant. Summer will give me time to get moving with some projects!

Exactly! 😉
Sounds like a great idea! How about near (time and location) the NVCF, for those who have to travel?
Count me in!
Will it be a swap-meet as well?

PS for moderators
What about starting a new section on the forum for meetings like this ??
This is so well buried. I only stumbled onto it by chance!!!!!

I'm up for it if it is near-by. If not, then I might have to befriend PinkMouse with some beer and cookies and scrounge a lift hehe! 😉
I'm about to build some small coaxial floorstanders soon so I could drag them along, maybe.

Points roughly in order:
NVCF is in April, that might be a bit soon
Swap meet - possibly, what do people want?
Good idea on the new topic, we'll discuss it.
I'm sure we can sort something out regarding lifts, Graeme Finlayson is close as well and he might be up for it.
Sharpi31, how about Lands End? 😉
Back in an hour or so, I'm going to watch Ronnie O'Sullivan play now.

Hello PM,
Nice idea. I might be up for a meetup, it would be great to put some faces to names I regularly see on here, such as your own.
I'd not like to drive any more than 3 hours ideally, but being in Sheffield I can reach most of England easily enough, especially the way I drive.
It looks like many of you are down South, but to be fair our Scottish friends, we'd need to have something no lower than the midlands or so, lol. Or else it's a terrible drive (or expensive train ride).

Guys,
it sounds great. For those of you w/in travelling distance from London there is also the London DIY Hi-Fi Circle. In theory the website is here but the connection seems rather slow.
The circle has a rather long tradition dating back to the 60s. It meets once monthly on the last thursday of the month in a pub close to Victoria Station and occasionaly at members' home meetings.
Quite a few UK-flagged people hanging out here are members.

I went up to one near the The British Museum a few years ago. They seemed to be a bit valve obsessed. 😉
If you do this in a place where less-than-nosebleed lodging is available, I might pack up the wife and kid and make a summer vacation out of it (my winter vacation was ETF).
that'll be Perth thenlocated somewhere relatively central

Forget the flat earth folk

Forget the flat earth folk, they got it completely wrong , Everything revolves about Scotland
. Check the planets next time your outside.
I passed through Perth recently, had a MacDonald's meal there. The Scottish countryside is nice.

And survived ?????
or was that when you turned green ?
or did you mean Mr. and Mrs. MacDonald, of 14 Acacia Avenue?
It was a bit scary but I was so hungry having climbed 3 mountains in 2 days and it's a long way from home.

Have you seen a psychiatrist recently? I can recommend a couple if you want 😉
