Hi guys,

Anyone live in Edinburgh/Glasgow, or want to visit? I was wondering if there'd be interest in an Edinburgh meet. Festival time has come and gone but to be honest there's a lot to do in Edinburgh year-round.

Ideas:

- Zoo (always popular, but expensivish - £15.50, or £12.50 if there's more than 10 of us)
- Royal Botanic Gardens (great place to chill, plus it's free!)
- Generic pub/café meet (generic doesn't mean bad!)
- Art galleries/museums (there are some quite nice ones)
- Touristy stuff e.g. visit the Castle, go down the Royal Mile, go on one of those tour bus things
- Go to a ceilidh?!
- Any events, if anyone knows of anything that's on besides Hogmanay and Festival Season.

Any other ideas very welcome. Of course I know actual attendance will depend on dates but at the moment I'm just trying to get an idea of numbers and whether it'd be worth trying to organise something or not.

Interested

Perhaps. Though I'm not going to be over until January most likely. :O

I mentioned Glasgow because it's only an hour or so away, but of course people from further afield are very welcome too! I went all the way down to London for the London HQ meet!

I live in Edinburgh so I'm organising an Edinburgh meet. (Plus I love Edinburgh.) If you live further north, feel free to organise a meet there :)

I'm really interested!!! (But no Zoo plz. I was there a couple of days ago...and seriously it was one of the emptiest zoos I've ever seen- AND the panda thing is super-exaggarated... I saw only a half-panda that day. xD)

Really? When I was there it was great! We saw the penguin parade but missed the bit where you can feed all the tropical birds.

But it was more than a year ago that we went, perhaps it's not so great? What time of day did you visit? I hear zoos are better in the mornings as after that the animals go to sleep lol.
