Right, who's up for a meet in Bristol? :D
The plan is to do it 24th-25th June so got plenty of time for people to get booked etc.

Important: Date is now uncertain and being voted on so please vote in the poll and we'll go from there! The plan however will remain the same

The Plan:
Check in is around 2pm for hotels so meet up for late lunch around 3pm.

We'll be meeting at Wetherspoons which is about an equal distance between the Marriott and the Premier Travel Inn, and right in the centre too. It's by the waterfront so should be nice plus there's plenty of other pubs for us to move along to.

Then head back to the hotels to get ready for food and dancing.

Evening meal - We'll be eating at either Nandos or San Carlos, an Italian pizza pasta type place. They're both near loads of bars, with San Carlos being near another Wetherspoons that's meant to do some nice beers and ales (handy for any real ale enthusiasts).

After that, we might make our way to Oceana which according to Exentia is perfect for cheesy music.
Other than that we might just stay in a bar somewhere chatting or possibly some karaoke if enough people are up for it :D Basically, we'll figure it out depending on our mood when we're there as there's plenty to do along the waterfront and nearby area. :)

Sunday - morning will be spent recovering :p And then some bowling before we all head off home. Exentia's sorting out which one is best for motorway access so that'll be set nearer the time, and also I'll get some lanes booked for us all. Probably for around 12pmish to give us plenty of time.

Hotel options:
Three hotels we've sorted out that should all be fairly central and near to everywhere we're going.

Holiday Inn Temple Meads - Opposite Temple Meads Station and about 10mins from everywhere we're going - http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/ex/1/en/hd/brsct?irs=y

The Marriott in Lower Castle Street - http://marriott.com/property/abouthotel/default/brsdt?WT_Ref=mi_left

Brigstow Hotel in Welsh Back - http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g186220-d209377-Reviews-Brigstow_Hotel-Bristol_England.html

As with all OcUK meets: THIS MEET IS OVER 18's ONLY I'm afraid.

I'll have you know that the centre of Bristol (specifically, the bus stop area) to Temple Meads can be sprinted in mere minutes, far less than 10, and that if you run a direct route through the back streets and the bus gets stopped at the traffic lights before the bridge, you can make it halfway up the hill to the bridge before the lights turn green. FACT. :(

Pleeease put me down as MaYbE because I don't know if I'll be flying in persuit of girlfriend around that time :D
 
Updated. :)
