So as the two of us have been hinting here and there, I'm going to Canada, and I'm moving in with LGHunter. This isn't a descision that has come lightly, since moving to a new country is a huge step, but to be honest, it wasn't a difficult descision; there's very little to keep me here in Britain, and there's a lot to gain by moving in with the woman I love. It was going to happen sooner or later, so why not make it sooner? Soon being this October.

Not that it makes much difference to you fine folks on the forum, thanks to the wonderful series of tubes that comprise the Intertron. Just means a difference in time zone, and, gods dammit, a higher ping on the Gent's Club.

Hey, we should totally have a UK forumer meet up before I leave. Whaddya think, wanna do Alton Towers or something?

Yay I will not be the only one.

That said best of luck to you, and a pre-emptive welcome to NA

Canada's ping will most likely be lower than Cumbria =P

Forum meet-up sounds good (since Alton Towers is right next to me :D), and I've never actually been. Early/Mid-September?

We will all be waaring striped suits with spy masks of each others faces.

Dunno If I can go. It takes like several hours to get there since I live in outer London.

Projected time it would take to go from Hounslow to Alton Towers by public transport: 13 hours 14 minutes.

But now we shall only be a four-man team from the UK, as opposed to in the UK! Oh noez!

Because, y'know, that matters so much by comparison. :P

Forumite meetup would be grand, except for such flaws as a) I've never had a fondness for theme parks (which, truth be told, has not stopped me from going with friends before and not doing anything there) and mostly b) my crippling debt.

If it was just for purposes of a meetup, the Lake District wouldn't be too bad for hanging out, or just an interesting city where we could just do some general stuff.

Truth be told, I could always pick you up halfway or something.

I'm in. I have wheels now.

Bollocks, it's only four hours from Carlisle to Euston on the train, and 6 or 7 when I did Carlisle to Heathrow on the coach. And Carlisle's a damn sight further north than Alton Towers! :P

I suppose, but as a nerd, I fear the awkwardness, so I suggested somewhere with an obvious purpose, yet plenty of room for socialising. Hell it was just off the top of my head, let us bat around other ideas at will.

Good luck to you both mah boi.
Remember
-Bears are NOT more afraid of you than you are of them. They will eat you.
-All Canadians carry a core of Maple syrup within them. Do not let them overheat or they wil explode in a geyser of syrupy goodness.
-Putting a chainsaw on the base of your hockey stick is unsporting BUT NOT CHEATING.
-In Canada Milk come in bags.

I'd love to go to a meet up but, marooned in Scotland as I am it's kinda unfeasible.
Also I may be oving in a few months so I gotta watch the pennies.

True, my sixth form group trip to alton towers was several hours as well, although that was by coach.

Other locations that are Nerd friendly.....London Expo? XD

I wouldn't go near London if you paid me. And I only live thirty miles down the A127 from it. I'd sooner meet up at John O'Groats and drive the entire way that delve into that nightmarish shithole.

Keep going back to the ride he's operating, getting more and more annoying each time we go: ducking under the queue, pretending to be shorter than the height barrier, asking him to tuck him into the seats, screaming loudly before it's even started. -Then- drop the word 'Feldoon' randomly into conversation, perhaps even as two words with a Scottish accent.
