    Thamnophis UK meeting 2008

    Thanks for the kick into action, dearest James!

    I thought this would be a great idea while we wait for the big world meeting next year. Of course a UK meeting does not mean you actually have to live in the UK, just that we will meet over here.

    How would you feel about camping, sometime in late June?
    That should be around the time new babies are ready for exchange, the weather with any luck will be warm enough to spend a couple of nights in a tent and it won't be too close to summer holidays for people to be too busy.

    I know I agreed to organising this, but you will help me out with some good advice as to location, time, etc, won't you?
    Maybe the Midlands might be a good place to go? Fairly central and from what I remember a reasonable chance to spot a slow worm or two...

    I'm in, Esther! June sounds good, Midlands would be great. I grew up in Cheltenham, I know (knew!) some excellent spots for Adders, Slow-Worms and Common Lizards around the Costwolds...... if things haven't changed too much in the past 30 years!

    Weekends are best for me too and Cheltenham/ Cotswold area would be brilliant as I don't drive and it's not far from me at all.

    So Esther, you just need to find us a campsite (near to a pub) and we're sorted!

    So, Stefan.... If you can't make NC in 2009, can you get to the UK in June?

    Esther, maybe we need to pick a definite date? I might need to book the time off, I work weekends sometimes. Also, I might take the Friday and Monday off, if it's to be a weekend get-together.

    Re: Thamnophis UK meeting 2008

    Yes, I was thinking the same.
    I can't have a closer look tonight, we're off to London at 7am as Hannah and I are doing some work for the band "Simple Plan" in Camden/ London tomorrow. They're playing 3 gigs throughout the day and we have to hand out flyers and collect names for the mailing list. I'm really excited but I should really get some sleep otherwise I have no chance of charming anyone, lol. We were supposed to go to the aftershow party, too, but it's been cancelled, grrr. But we're staying over until Monday anyway, so any further planning will have to wait until then.
