UK Althanas-a-con
Hello lovely people!
I have proposed this idea in the past, but it never fully came to fruition. The best that has really come out if it is yours truly meeting up with Chris (Shinsou) and creating a friendship there. But I have met Mr Gnarl, and since his new wife (congratulations guys again) is somewhat around, and there are other Althanians in the UK ... Well.
Firstly, if you are in the UK, or able to easily get to the UK (i.e. the rest of Europe) comment below.
Secondly, if you are interested in having a giant meet up, comment below also.
What I am going to suggest is all of us going to a convention or other. I work at a fair few around the country, demonstrating board games, and I know there is the Glasgow MCM Comicon coming up in September.
I will be building a list as below of folk I know who are in the UK. And in the RoI because it is pretty close. I know you guys are still part of the EU and we are not, thanks to a few silly people, but we love you.
People in the UK:
Scotland:
Twitch (Aurelianus) - Central
Callum - usually central
Ailsa (Philomel, me) - Glasgow
Gordon (Grumble, my husband) - Glasgow
Flames - Edinburgh
England:
Chris (Shinsou can Osiris) - Manchester
David (Gnarl and Root) - Manchester
Sage - Manchester
Ireland (Republic and Northern):
Wales:
Cyd (Mord) - Cardiff
-
Add Sage to that England list. He'd always be up for a meet.
-
Isn't Flames also UK based? And Cyd is in Wales.
-
Ah thanks Shin :D will add them :)
-
:( Want go fund me of 'send Amari to see all her friends pls['
XD
-
I'm in Cardiff, which has excellent links to Bristol, Birmingham, and middle England.
-
In Edinburgh, present and accounted for! But I'm also afraid that I'm notoriously poor with any attempt at socialising. At present I can't commit to anything more than a day-trip - and even that's going to prove nigh-impossible from October onwards.
Worst case, carry on without me!
-
Acknowledged. (Sorry in bed and very sleepy. Thanks btw!)
-
I'll be back in college as of September, meaning I should have the jink for a meet-up.
Plus, I need to get my finger out and start writing again.

Glasgow comicon is my first idea for a UK althanas-a-con, but we could do another city closer to the middle. Manchester is another idea, as it is nearer to central UK and Chris, David and others are already there.
