Title: RVG Meet
Post by: zapiy on October 07, 2013, 20:01:22 PM
Ok so i have a desire to hook up with a few of you where possible.

So i am thinking a meet in Milton Keynes..

Maybe at the Retro Lords meet on the 23rd October?

I know our accross the pond friends can not attend but should you be rich and want to fly over you are most welcome. Maybe you guys can arrange something in the future..

Anyway i need to know if your up for it?

We could hook up early afternoon if you could get the day off work and go to the retro shop near The Laird.. Wreck the Joint, go for a beer.. Grab a burger and then head to the event before shaking hands and saying "till next time, it was nice to meet you"


Regards,

Works for me!

Why not just say Dunstable then? We can hit the retro shop, grab a pint and some lunch and then go round mine for some gaming?

We could do that too. We should all try to make an event.

Agreed, this is ideal as it is pretty central as a place to travel to for the north and south..

But yes a big event meet is on the cards for next year me thinks, one we could discuss at this meet. :113:

Might be able to make the Retro Lords event, but have a meeting at my daughters school to attend that evening and have to work.
Haven't the Retro Lords moved the day of their event too?

Lol...would love to meet you guys sometime and RT you too, with my superman 2 grip ability when he crushes general Zod's hand..lol..nah, I think it would be ace, but living in another country stops me from simply heading down to a meet place, but would love to do it at some stage.

Bear hugs all around  :6:

Retrolords are broken in MK.

It was Wednesday but that hasn't happened for 6 weeks, it was shifting to Fridays but it hasn't happened. Not sure whats going on to be honest.

For me, anyday after pay day is good :)

i am going away next week to portugal so 23rd isn't ideal as i will be poor.

Title: Re: RVG Meet
Post by: TL on October 31, 2013, 21:23:30 PM
@Zapiy - I already told you I was off tomorrow so we could meet, bloody hard it was getting the day off too. I just wanted to know what time we are meeting and where!

@Minerals - Come round whenever as I will be ready!

So who is actually coming and what time are we meeting and where basically?
Title: Re: RVG Meet
Post by: zapiy on October 31, 2013, 22:08:56 PM
As it's been a little late with numbers confirming I can do an afternoon meet up. Pop to that retro shop then maybe some beers.
Title: Re: RVG Meet
Post by: TL on October 31, 2013, 22:15:14 PM

Retro shop is on the opposite corner and there is a carpark round the corner.
