Aberystwyth Meet
Following the Insomnia meet, after some discussion with a few people, I'd like to announce.... The Aberystwyth Meet, 13th and 14th of May 2006
Where
Aberystwyth is a nice sea side town set in behind the hills / valleys in Wales - if you look on a map of Wales and you see that it curves in, look at the middle of the curve - that is Aberystwyth. Also known as the belly button of Wales.
Why
Aberystwyth is a student town. This means drinks promotions.
How
You can get to Aberystwyth by many ways. By road you can get there easily from Birmingham or South England / Wales. I'll post directions if needed. By train you can get a train from Birmingham New Street (with other "big" places on the way) and theres a coach direct from London (leaves early morning I believe), or you can get the coach again from Birmingham.
Sleep
The joys of Aberystwyth being on the sea is that there is a whole bevvy of places to stay. From cheap BnBs (some offering decent views of the sea front) to a really spangly hotel in which a cheap rate Porn film was filmed in, Aberystwyth has a whole host of places to stay
Price
The price of the weekend should follow along this lines
Travel to Aberystwyth - £20 from Birmingham New Street return, will be more for further distances ofc
Accomodation - £28 - £40 per night (depending on type of accomodation)
Food - £15, there are a whole host of fast food places (if you have Subway vouchers, bring them as well)
Drink £xx, I'll leave this one up to your wallet / liver
If theres enough people interested I can also book Paintballing (change of clothes will be required ofc). This will cost ~£15, including helmets, guns and ammo - more ammo can be bought on the day.
If your interested or want any details on anything above or anything else, feel free to post or PM me on IRC, even if you want to know how to pronounce the name

Re: Aberystwyth Meet
I'll certainly be there. I will be up for the Paintballing too. Just want to reassure people that this place is absolutely brilliant for drinking in. Lets have a great meet eh ?

Re: Aberystwyth Meet
Since I actually live there, don't have an excuse not to go. Depending on exam times there should be space for a few people to kip on my floor.

Re: Aberystwyth Meet
Quite why you expect any sensible students to come during the middle of exam/revision time is beyond me.
But best of luck, etc.

Re: Aberystwyth Meet
furball - you cant be revising all the time, otherwise information goes in one ear and out the other.

Re: Aberystwyth Meet
Right in the middle of my exams :'(
Not that I'd go anyway. Who in their right minds would willingly go to Wales. So is there gonna be a pa meet once a month now or something?

Re: Aberystwyth Meet
that's a little harsh Newt. I would bet you haven't lived in Wales, it is a pleasant place to live infact! I hate preconcieved ideas of Wales. argh!
This is just a move by me and Smudge to get PA players together, following the Insom Meet which was a success, we thought we could make a weekend of this.
thomas.. my gf is coming.. so.. yea.. as long as I'm not in bad books I'll be alright. If i am in bad books.. she will be having fun tormenting me
