I'd love to go to these meet ups one day.

Trains are your friend bro. But your right it will be cooler when your 18.

Err, they're only mock exams - those guys have another chance. :)

Nope, i've been brainwashed to think that every exam IS MY ONLY CHANCE TO SUCCEED IN LIFE! I'm pretty sure i'll be there though, providing CompanionCube doesn't run away to fucking Czech republic right before the bloody meet like what could have possibly happened last time ... :3

Whether or not to come... Hmm, London's a long way, though, I could catch a train and be there in a couple of hours.

No, but seriously, I will make this one even if I have to miss my fiance's wedding.

I'm already wet.

Bring her with you, we'll have Tom perform the ceremony.

ey sounds fun, I'll come!

Though I wish there were more of us girls coming - maybe I'll bring some friends who aren't NG'ers ?

I think they (Luis, whoever) has mentioned before something about bringing non-Ngers. I think they said generally they felt awkward not being part of the NG group.. but, you're 23.. female.. bring all the friends you like. XD

A round trip ticket cost me about 1050$, with taxes and insurance and everything. So, it's not that bad considering the fact that you would be flying over the atlantic ocean...

I assume that was just the flight and not accommodation or anything? Because unless you're staying with Luis (which most people won't be able to bet on for sure unless they've already confirmed it with him in advance), accommodation can be pretty damn expensive to my knowledge. Also spending money for food and drink etc etc.

I am coming i might even to the sleep over thing if luis lets me i really wanna play CC i was 14 in august (i guess that means im 15) it was fucking awesome i got on with everyone if your young like me and scuzzfest dont worry about coming and feel out of place it was fucking excellent

thats my account of it...it was one of the best days of my life

jtm17 account of one fucking awesome day

i recommended we should go an have a british curry down brick lane....Curry is Practically British and the best in london is down there its also QUITE close to southbank

its gunna be so cool!

Found a good place to drink near charing cross from half 5 till half 7pm, only problem is its over 18's.

In between those hours specified it's half price cocktails! Was drinking there last night its an awesome place with an awesome atmosphere!

Luis, I can't afford my flight home. Do you think you'd be able to buy me a plane ticket back to Australia?

In fact, just buy pay for everything.

Yeah, that'd be great.

THNX!

Nah, that was only for the plane ticket.
Accomodation was pretty reasonable, especially with the flat we had (I guess sleeping 12 in a place that can hold up to 6 is a good thing :P). As for food and drinks, it's where things got really expensive fast. So, in a whole, if you count ticket, accomodation, food, drink and etc., the trip cost me about $1,700.

It was worth it :)

Not too bad, but still on the pricey side for me. Good thing I live in London so it's easy as pie for me to get to the meet ;)

Well, I say I live in London... I'm moving up there tomorrow. Should probably do some more packing.

When the meet is i'll still be 17 for a couple of months >:( grrr

Well thats not that bad, Well I'll just have to see how much money i can save up after paying all my bills :) I'm figureing I'll need about $3,000 Max... for the trip hopefully I'll have all my "things" pay off by then :)

Yes, yes you should :P
You should also come down to Montreal in April for our Xth (I lost count 2 years ago) meet. It will be during beerfest, which is GOOOOD. Poozy also promised me he was coming a couple of months ago.

Plus, Montreal is WAAAY cheaper than London, especially off-season!

I think i will come to this one :). Just to meet the wholeeee gang!

I'm definitey gonna try to make it this time, hopefully I'll have no failed exams that I need to re-do around those dates. It's difficult to know, since it's pretty early yet, I dont even have the schedual for the second half of the fall yet. :)

Any plans on what to do? Everyone just gonna drink beer and get mad at eachother, or do people wanna hook up and do some sort of activity (like, NG-S&M after breakfast, scuba diving with fast rotating propellers, crash the brittish castle etc.)?

Don't forget to bring a towel!

Think it was going to be namco arcade again, sit down have a few beers, but not get totally wasted. You tend to lose track of how much you are drinking where its in the dark.

I wouldn't mind going around the millenium wheel.

I'll be lookin into seeing if we can think of something else to do to switch it up. Generally speaking, most of the stuff we've done thats outside the norm has been on the other non-meetup days. Main reason being that its easier to move around and do stuff when you arent a group of 30.

On a related note, I'm gettin close to securing the rental of a really swanky pad in Knightsbridge.
Slight upgrade from the last one...

That looks super hot. Hope it's not setting you back by too much though.

Soho looked good, went there today! One strip club £15 entry, as many dances as you want! Found a nice little pub, buy 1 cocktail get 1 free too.

The brothels there are weird like there are girls actually on show at the front of the place

God damn...
Will Dave still be around to clean the place up? :P

Are you joking? I've gotta be PAID to clean that place up. That's a whole day's graft right there just to get it back to original quality after just one night with you guys, lol. xD

And no Ribena on the white rug boys, we don't want any stains!

I live about 30 minutes out of London, I might have to give it a gambit.
I mean, fuck, 3-4 days to London, I have the liberty, that I may have to take judging my advanced years and my crooked back, of taking the train up and down to the big fat City.
Just promise not to take my walking stick and false teeth, awwright?
Alright.
