Hello peeps.

I've just been speaking to auntie von on msn and we have decided that we should put out the feelers for a meet in 'The Dam'. We know that there are a lot of meets taking place at the moment so we haven't even thought about dates etc but we just wanted to know you what you nice people out there thought about it :)

Obviously the cash situation, time off work and other commitments play a big part in putting something like this together, so we need as much feedback from everyone as to when and how we should try and get the ball rolling.

So, just to get a general consensus on this idea let's forget all about cash , holidays, work and the like and see if you can answer the following questions ;)

Would you put your name down for a 'Dam' meet if there was going to be one organised?

When would be a good time for you to go? Summer next year? This year? Xmas? (It doesn't have to be any of those times, we just want to know when would be good for you).

And the big question is ........
















































Would you bring your female counterpart? :D

*Von told me to say that honest girls :o *

Obviously there will be a lot more questions than that to be asked and answered but like I said .... it's just an idea :)

So please post away and let us both know what you all think.

Ching ching

A big factor would be what would you want to do when you got there?


Well we all know what Amsterdam is famous for so I wouldn't imagain that there would be that many people wanting to see anne Frank's house ;) However that is a good point Muban.
 
Oh, I forgot to list my preferences.

Almost any weekend I can do nearer the end of summer. Christmas gets harder as work gets busier and money becomes a little stretched with pressie buying etc. And I'm not taking 'Er indoors ;) We're just back from the dam and Annie didn't really think that much of it :eek: She thought the canal boat trips were nice and the Heineken museum was good value for money :p
 
There will be people that would like to do everything on that list MB ;) but wether or not people would want to admit to those options is down to them I suppose :confused: However, I would like to think that if it wasn't going to turn out to be a lad's thing then it would be really nice if we could do things as a group. It all depends on numbers turning up at the end of the day and what their preferences would be :)
 
Peeps, just for the record.

The last thing I want is to have this thread turning into a druggy chat thread so (no offence MB) I would refrain from listing your preferences and just say wether or not you would like to go and when would be good for now.

Tar very much :D

I knew that when I started this thread that there would be an issue with the reasons why people would or wouldn't want to go to Amsterdam. I picked Amsterdam as it is only a hop, skip and jump across the water and the flights can be bought cheaply enough if you book far enough in advance. I just thought that it would make the meet seem more like a wee mini holiday if we were all in another country :(
There are people who have been before and have stated that they have no interest in the 'seedier' side of the Dam but who liked the country, and it would really seem a shame if those people didn't want to attend because they didn't want to spend their time in a group who did turn up just to partake in the naughty stuff and vice versa.
Maybe I should have made it clearer in my original post to what it was that I was looking for when starting this thread, but as I've already said I knew a whole can of worms would be opened up and there would be lots of people asking a lot of questions.
So, if you could (regardless of why others would want to go there) would you go to Amsterdam to meet up with fellow Oc'ers for a weekend :confused:
(Again it all comes down to timing and money for just about everyone).
As aunty von has already mentioned please keep your replies free of any naughty bits (you all know what I mean) and let's see if we can get some kind of idea as to whether or not this would work ;)
Would I travel to Amsterdam to meet other members off of these forums? Yes I would. I can't say when I could do it, but if I thought I could get time off of work and have plenty of notice for when it was taking place then I would most certainly be interested :D

Maybe a poll on the destination alone would give us all a better idea on the proportion of members willing to give it a go, or I could just get a little list going and update it as people say yes or no :confused:

Oh, one other thing that I forgot to mention was that this would definatly be for the over 18's only.
