Brittons of the Community, report yourselves here.
« on: September 28, 2016, 06:07:09 AM »
Who of you is a Brit. Who do you know here who is a Brit?
Who of you would like to be on a list of Brittons to get invited for a possible meetup, sometime in the future, somewhere on British soil?

Just for the record, I am not a Brit. I am just being obnoxious or helpful. Pick your choice. :smarty:

I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

Doncha think that Holland is just a tiny bit too close to Brussels huh? Ya daft moo.
It's OK, you Brits, Hyke isn't trying to take over the World , she's just being helpful.
Alright, alright, you be in charge of  the roster, Hyke, and I'll do the first actual  meet-up thread. You're more consistently here than I am, anyways. 

Fair Enough?

Oh, and , FYI , we Brits can organise a piss-up in a Brewery  for ourselves. *hic*

I'd like to suggest:
A) a list of Brits  in the OP (updated as necessary)  to save scrolling through the whole thread
B) that Brits post their location as specifically as they feel confortable with (at least specify whether England, Scotland, Wales or Ireland)
C) Post a little bit about yourself, at least stating whether interested in meet-up or not (No commitment. Feel free to change your mind)
D) Members of other nationalities who visit Britain, now and then  and who might be interested in a meet up, add their name below . (to be listed seperately, to avoid confusion)
E) B, Cand D should be added to the OP.

-walkie :)

(I've been slowly thinking this through, as you see)

Ok, Walkie has been well and truly japed *blush*

Actually, after much prevarication, I decided to PM a few people. A meet-up thread should follow soon-ish
-Walkie  :)

So, my efforts were not needed?
Ummm, didn't mean to cause offense. Check the timestamps. We were posting simultaneously *chuckle*
Ummm, on the other hand I was trying to forestall some other foreigner from trying to make it look like we Brits can't organise a piss-up in a brewery for ourselves :rofl:
Not that I'm ungrateful. i was fawningly grateful to Pappy already, see? But  , weeelll, ya can see how it looks huh?

-Walkie :)

I was teasing you. Both in creating the thread, and in asking if I had made in in vain. Realised you posted while I was writing my post.

Do post pictures after the meetup. Pappy nor I will be able do that.

You know what, I'll do it. I'll keep the OP up to date.

Europe should not completely abandon the UK.

OK, then and if you don't get a shedload of responses, I'll make my own thread, AND steal your data :smarty:

I just wanted to say with the meetup thing, I feel a bit odd meeting random people from a forum I don't participate on much. I would rather know more about the members, really. I appreciate all your efforts though.

I live in the Midlands, born in London.

Hmm, if we're doing percentages, i'm 50% Scottish, slightly Irish, slightly Dutch jewish , But i wasn't really after a pedigree, Trigger, just location *chuckle*; from which perspective this 12'5% English, 12.5% Scottish is slightly worrying. Where is the other 75% of you located ?

As I think I said elswhere, mobility issues would probably prevent me from getting to meet-ups. But if I organise one or two myself, i might be able work my round said issues.

Oh! PS. My grandparents on Dad's side were Cockneys but they don't really count, genetically, only culturally, cos Dad was adopted.

If anybody wants to get to know me, i should think I've made enough posts by now?
