HI all,

As some of you are aware we now run an annual meeting in the UK, there will also be a Scotish one next year at some point, I am aware that in Europe there are a lot of meetings, I know of some in Italy, Spain and France.

I would like to know how you advertise these as I am continually asked to run them in other countries, I just want to know if anyone who organises these would care to pool information and perhaps look at putting the info on a website and sharing the cost of the very reasonably priced BBO adverts (Fred, please note a bit of crawling here)

I have people that would like to go to others abroad and I get good responses from people that want to come to the UK meet we already have 8 from europe coming to the one in Jan 2008 in Coventy and are expecting 100+ based on conversation and interest already shown

If you are interested or just wish to have a chat about it, you can email me

wayne.mayer@btinternet.com

or phone

01908 613918

or write to me at

my web site is www.weekendbridge.com if you wish to see some more info on what and how we do things

Unfortunately I only seak English (apologys for my lack of linguistic skills)

If anyone knows someone that maybe interested in this post but does not frequent the forums, I would be grateful if you would pass it on

Thanks

Hi Wayne,

is the information about the planned
weekends in Scotland / Ireland I find under
the following link upto date?
http://weekendbridge...x.php?topic=3.0

I intended to go to the meeting in January,
but unfortunately I cant join in Januray,
so I hope that another meeting takes place.

With kind regards
Marlowe

I did have some info on there, but I had a disaster with the hotel I arranged in scotland, they changed their tact at the last minute and it meant I would have to be liable for a considerable sum of money, through cancellations, apparently this is not indicative of the hotel chain, just the particular manager at this particular hotel, if I cant trust someone to keep to the spirit of an agreement, I have no wish to do business with them, so the others will be planned in 2008 for 2008, I will post further details on that link, but it wont be until after Feb 2008.

I am trying to get some of the other meetings in europe publicised on via the BBO advert and a shared website, if we pool dates etc, it will open a few more opportunities for people to meet face to face with their friends in a relaxed atmosphere doing what we all enjoy
