It wouldn't have been a meetup I organised. This is the second one I've done. Ha you're welcome to come though of course. :)

So far it's the first 2 saturdays in the month that are favourites. It's a bit of a hike from York, but I ought to be able to make it. Would need to see closer to the date. Why is nothing happening in Birmingham? Much more central.

I think this one is already booked for March 10th in London, but I'd definitely be interested in going to York or Birmingham later in the year if one of those is organised! I love York in particular =D

Like I said previously the date has now been set as the 10th of March so please don't vote anymore on the poll. :)
Oh and I have no idea why no meet is happening in Birmingham though I'm guessing it's because no one is able to organise one there.

Here is the plan for the day:

Saturday 10th March

10:45 am meet. I won't be waiting around ages for latecomers as it's not fair on anyone else really. So 15 minutes is fair. If anything people coming should have my number so I can say we we are.

11am - 1pm = Science Museum

1pm - A short break

1:30 - 3:30pm = Natural History Museum

After this anyone who wants can come along to a pub. There are a few in the Waterloo area that I know of. There's no specific organisation when it comes to this. It's pretty much after the museum do what you like. :)
Also if anyone who did not join the event on FB please PM me so I have an idea of who is coming. Even if it's just a maybe. Posting on here that you're interested doesn't mean I'm expecting you coming. :P
Oh and I will stress if you don't already know this but it's not like there's a WP meetup staff. This is not perfectly organised. I'm just doing this in my spare time so I can have a good day out with some cool people.

I'm from Birmingham, but enjoy meet-ups & I've visited London quite often as travelling the tube network fascinates me !
I'd be interested in attending this meet or the next meet.

I intend on spending more than a day in & around London as Chislehurst caves is also one of my faves to visit, so, are there any fair priced guest houses / B&B accomodation in the London area someone could recomend ?

Thanks,
Dave.

Very tempted to turn up. However, could you make the time a bit later in the afternoon? (Preferably after 1pm or so)

The reason is pretty simple: I'll be riding a bike from Bristol. :lol:

The time and date are set now but if you message your number to me or Gem, you can call or text when you arrive and we can meet you somewhere around the museum.

Could you send me the link for the FB group please Gem? I cant come this time as I cant get baby sitting but I will have some during the easter holiday so it would be good to be able to keep track of anything which is happening.

Is this definitely happening? I'm slightly new here, but I'd like to come. Even if I have spent 5 hours solid in the science museum in one day before...

I actually thought that due to your username that you are French/from Metropolitan France.

Would Northern England be too far? :)

Sounds like fun day. I've never been to one of these kind of things before, but I'll try to get there. Not sure how you plan on getting everyone OUT of the Science Museum after just 2 hours though! ;-P
