Date changed to avoid clash with Wikimedia UK Board Meeting Gordo

Sorry I'll be missing this :(

[edit]

I'm about 80% likely to be in London from June 5th or 6th through 13th. I was hoping the next London meetup would fall into that time. Any chance the meetup might shift back to being on the 12th, or is 19th set in stone? Fluffernutter 00:18, 18 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

If it was the 12th I would have come, cant do the 19th. Please change it back :) Seddon 00:19, 18 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
Ask James ??? Gordo

Oops, double booking, may not make it this time. Blame my better half. -- 00:17, 27 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Dates and Venues.

[edit]

The Board can set meetings whenever they like. But the second Sunday in the month is the domain of London Wikimeets. On the issue of a non pub venue, I could suggest other venues, some of which might work, and could be free of charge. Gordo 21:00, 20 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Having said that, the only thing I would change is the time. I would like to meet in the evening at the Penderel's Oak. The pub works well, and has an august history for Wikimeets! Gordo 09:26, 27 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
evening is tricky for those outside london although peopel are generaly there until quite late.Geni 23:16, 28 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
Ah, yes, those outside London. But since this the London wikimeet and there are several millions potential attendees, can we be selfish? Gordo 15:38, 29 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
For those on or near the South Coast, such as myself, it is already a challenge to get these meetups, so I would prefer that most of it stays in the daytime. I am open minded about changing the venue, though I have no complaints about the existing one. CT Cooper · talk 11:28, 30 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
Sometimes a challenge from the East End too </ggg> Gordo 13:14, 30 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
Speaking as an irregular attendee, I see no problem with the venue. Its decentish food, a fairly friendly and safe environment and its london so tubes take you everywhere (when there arn't works). stick with it i say Seddon 20:26, 31 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
