Bumping this thread back into view.....

Consider this advance notice of a Stirling meet so you can organize your diaries if it is of interest.

Plans are to have a guest speaker. Yup, Bamps is heading north of the border.....

Pimlico didn't seem to have much on offer when I looked. Look at the map of the underground and workout where you can get to in 20mins, ideally without changing underground. Earls Court is a decent option when Pimlico is expensive.

Did a lot of this sort of hotel hunting when I used to work for living with business trips to London....

I'm now having to pay for my own travel, food and accommodation having retired courtesy of a certain AIM share you are probably familiar with...?

And it was very nice to meet the innocent Glasgow 4 last night too.....

Well thank goodness for that, dinner with you would rapidly descend into a geological explanation of how gold is formed with the aid of peas, mash and gravy.

Thank you to all who travelled from near and far (and further) to attend Bamps' presentation in Stirling tonight. And thanks to Bamps for a lot of time and effort spent putting his slide show together, I'm sure I was the biggest hindrance trying to assist in setting up projector and screen....

And whoever forgot to pay for their lovely "Chicken Ecosse Peppercorn" meal, you owe me dinner.

@Doublehun, thanks for letting us know you are attending. As Rotherby says, the room we have is quite spacious, so there's no excuse for being shy folks. It's not often that Bamps ventures north of Hadrian's Wall.

Hi Afbour

Thanks for confirming, it will be good to meet you, and I appreciate your fairly lengthy travel required to attend.

I will be in my favourite cardigan - the one that looks like an homage to Sentinel satellite imagery.

Stirling Meet - evening of Monday 15th September at the Birds & The Bees, small function room.

Invite for all of the more Northern / Scottish GGP folks if you wish to hear Bamps and chat about GGP and non-GGP topics - come to Stirling!

...and morning to Schuco too.

Morning Afbour,

Sorry I missed your previous response to Rotherby's query about where folks were located and interest in meets.

I've organised the previous Scottish meets and got Bamps and his collection of pictures north of Hadrian's Wall for one of them. To date they've been in a pub with good food and a decent (free) function room in Stirling, the traditional east / west, Edinburgh / Glasgow, Central Scotland compromise. It was either a Stirling pub or a plastic table in the Harthill Services on the M8 to achieve geographic neutrality.

- are there any other folks reading this minded to join a Scottish meet?

Maidstone is hardly far flung when compared to my trek from Scotland - although taking a plane is probably cheating.

......not entirely sure if I can make the 19th work for me.
