forum gathering at the nats...
Kai.A. - April 3rd, 2004 at 09:30 PM

we should organise some times and places so we can all meet eachother face to face.....

this'll be my first nats, so i havn't got a clue where good places would be to meet, but i'm sure you lot must have some good suggestions....

then all we need to sort is times for the gatherings, i think we should do more than one, then if some people miss the first one they could still make the second one.

anyway, over to you lot for suggestions.

Alex Holzl - April 3rd, 2004 at 10:12 PM

yeh id be there!


Dannyboy - April 3rd, 2004 at 10:25 PM

I'm a Nats Virgin and apart from cruising over with someone it would also be good to have a general meet point or something but how would you know me if i walked past you!

Dan:):)


Kai.A. - April 3rd, 2004 at 10:31 PM

that's why we need a time and place, just turn up to the place at the time and start introducing yourself....

i've seen this work with great success in the u.k with members of the volkszone forum, at some shows they actually got moved on because the gathering was so large it was blocking access to parts of the show.....

i'm not expecting that, but i would like to meet the people i talk to on here, put faces to the names (usernames).....
