Also, you're in the UK now D.o.S?
Yessir. I moved over in March-ish.
Ok, so, new page, time for a new post detailing some of the ins and outs of what we have planned so far (which is pretty up for debate):

Major details are 23-25 March 2018, London, UK
Other details to be finalised!
But be assured there will be gear, girlz, g-alcohol and g-fun.
Sign up here, serious applicants only!!
btw if anyone is coming from or can fly to the north we can travel in glorious style in my automobile with way more gear.
This is all true.
So far interested parties, in the thread and in general discussion elsewhere include:
1.coldbrightsunlight
2.D.o.S.
3.Drod (probably)

23-25 March 2018, London, UK[/b]
This is Friday-Sunday, the weekend before our Easter bank holiday weekend. The general plan is to get together with some gear in a space (to be determined), hang out and play with fancy gear from around the world (or at least Western Europe), see some sights, drink some booze-y booze, and maybe hang out with some builders? Including Scruffie. I know Rainger is around here, and I'm sure there's others.
So what we need to figure out between now and then. And by "we" I mean mostly "me" because I'm the half of the planning squad that is local.
-- Housing for folks interested. I can house maybe two or three people, but spots might already be taken. We had a big hostel squad in Oslo that worked well and was pretty cheap, I assume folks coming in from out of town can find something similar.
-- Gear and a place to use Gear! This is where I am drawing the biggest blank, simply because I don't have any knowledge about rehearsal space or the like in this city beyond some cursory Googling. suggestions here would be much appreciated. London isn't a particularly small city so finding somewhere that fits our needs shouldn't be too terrible.
-- Other stuff to do! Pub and culture is a given, and if the weather's nice we can totally rock a Slayer-riffic picnic in the park (as is tradition), but it'll be March, so "nice weather" is up for debate. suggestions here would also be much appreciated.
But general itinerary is as stands:
Thursday night: Folks arrive, things are dropped off, we find a rad pub and go have drinks, then an off-license to have more drinks.
Friday/Saturday: We jam, do something cool in the park?/Meet some builders? Try some cool gear?
Sunday: We jam more, people leave?
Sound good to errybody?
