'welsh massive' Now that would be over stating it a bit!
This would be the first meet in cardiff that we have arranged so we don't have a regular time or place. In fact we are very slack and rubbish at organisation because we are all a bit too layed back!

If it was a short guy with a furry face and not sounding at all Welsh (well why would he, he's born and raised in Cariff ) that could have been Rossco.

Let's relight this forum

Thats true Dunc, Rossco sounds less welsh than I do and I'm an essex girl! Well kind off...

i'd offer to take the germs, but i don't think i have a good home, i'll probably forget to feed them or not clean out their litter tray.... which reminds me, cats probably want something...

sorry matt, you caught me on an evening where I actually have an internet connection that works (I'm at work still), normally my post would take about 4 hours longer to appear and you'd have made me look like I was copying you!

I think the plan so far is to try and meet next weekend sat 26th Feb in Cardiff. It all really depends on the weather though. If its going to be freezing cold and raining its not going to be much fun! YAY for the lovely weather in Wales! Roll on summertime!

I've been trying to find out who owns the hall around the corner from me to see if we could hire it for a day. That way we'd have somewhere inside to spin if its really freezing and wet. I just don't seem to be able to track them down though. I'm still working on it. If I do manage to get it, a few of you could crash at mine over night if you can't get home.... my house is an utter mess so be warned. I won't even do that "Oh I'm sorry about how untidy it is, I've been run off my feet and not been able to clean up" line because its always messy! Its only half renovated but it has a roof, central heating and a bathroom..... what more could you want?

Feed me Chocolate!!! Feed me NOW!

another poi-son (what is the singular for poiple?) in cardiff! welcome ghost, come too! mwehahaha!! the poi domination of south wales is finally taking shape....

import them?!? ye gads, do you have any idea what kind of diseases they may bring with them? (sorry)

how many people constitute a 'meet' anyway? there would be a number of people who would be 'meeting' i assumed that would count
