[edit]

Hi All.

I notice that this weekend isn't very popular. Only two people have signed up, and one of those has suggested he won't come if there is only two people.

Can I suggest moving the event to Saturday the 12th of September? I'm very busy over the next few weeks... but the 12th looks like it will be free.

Support: Its a better idea to shift meetups out of August- as this happens every year. As October will be Liverpool- it will be December before we can get together. My September is however rather full- I will be up in Preston? on the 19th possibly doing two edit-a-thons (all invited when I have the details)- then again on the 26th in Clitheroe Castle. In between I have a daughter who is moving- and tenants moving in. I am doing a lot of svgs while I am allegedly relaxing. More on sundials. I came to France for a rest. --ClemRutter (talk) 11:54, 20 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
Moving the event sounds sensible. I'm free on the 12th September. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 15:08, 20 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
Correction, I can't do the 12th, sorry - it's heritage open day that weekend. I might be able to do the 19th, but the 26th or 27th would be preferable. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 08:40, 21 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
I definitely can't do 19th, 26th or 27th. But that isn't to say others can't meet then. If @RexxS: or @Bazonka: had an opinion on this, it might help us fix a date. In the meantime, shall we mark this meet-up as cancelled? Only two days to go! Yaris678 (talk) 12:08, 21 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
Well... there appears to be three people expressing an interest now, so maybe it should go ahead tomorrow. It isn't my place to say otherwise. Yaris678 (talk) 11:23, 22 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

@RexxS: @JamesBWatson: are you planning on coming? If so, I'll be there; otherwise let's declare this cancelled. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 10:20, 23 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Have stopped by anyway for the next ~20 mins or so: if anyone else does happen to be here, I'm in the usual area at the back of the pub. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 12:18, 23 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
The cup of tea was nice. I managed to spend time working on User:Mike_Peel/Wikimeet_survey, which is hopefully now ready to run. But as no-one else is here, I'll head home now! Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 12:55, 23 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Sorry but I was away so I wasn't able to look into rescheduling this. Hopefully we can get some more people to Liverpool next month and then a nice big meetup in Manchester in October. Bazonka (talk) 17:30, 23 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
