Hi Well I know its still a fair way off but its time to start to plan for the meet up in Cardiff on the 5th of March have chosen the Mercure hotel and at the mo the rooms are £55 per room this is a advance booking rate and will no doubt go up in price the closer to the the date so booking early is advised it will be fairly the same format as last year in Manchester so meeting up at the hotel between 1400hrs and 1500hrs a few pints at the hotel then on to a bar then a mexican meal then for those still able on to a late night bar/club the deal can be found on hotels.com just search for cardiff and the hotel should be on the first page if you could let me know who is thinking of coming so i can have an idea of numbers so can start thinking of places to go as always I will be going a few weeks in advance and trial running places out so any prefrances or suggestions welcome also

look forward to hearing from you you can as always PM me if you have any Qs

Ian

Sorry Claire the address is

Mercure cardiff centre hotel

Wharf road east,

Tyndell street

Cardiff CK10 4BB

If you go on hotels.com it should be the first one you come to it looks under a mile to Cardiff central train station

I'm from Cardiff and I have to say you've chosen a very nice hotel. Unfortunately im in Uni atm so wont be able to join you but heres an idea - what about the new Hooters restaurant that is opening :winky:

Jamo you do not have to come to all of it you could just pop along for a pint or so theres no worries would be good to see you there

Would love to go but can't due to distance, so will look forward to meeting u all in may

cookie its a shame you wont be able to make it but can understand its a fair way to travel and look forward to meeting up with you on tour 1

Probably will be unable to attend this one given the distance involved. Will just have to see if I bump into you guys out in the states again come May ;) I'll let you know if things change of course!

Gorky am sure to see you at some time state side sorry you cant make it till may then

I would love to meet up with everyone pre 2011 season, but it is my daughter's birthday, so I will not be able to.

I really cannot wait 'til next May though. A big hello to everyone on tour 2!

As much as I'd love to be there, I have a wife and three dogs to put in kennels, so it gets pricey for a one night stand!

Even if I take the wife with, kinda like very costly for the doggies, so please excuse me and the missus from this event this time round.

P.S. Those that know us, don't even mention to her I suggested the kennels for the weekend, else it'll be a self exploding tornado in the making :whistling:

Hellooooo,

Count me in!

Cardiff is a great night out, Ian if you need and help on the reccy give me a shout, being the selfless member of the netweather.tv storm chasing team I would be more than happy to help.

Also for all us who reside in and around London, pre-crimbo drinks?

Laters!
