@trister @elscire !yorkshirebronies Right, I'll keep that in mind. What do you reckon the price limit per person should be? The lower the price the better. I'd be happy personally if I could find something for £20 or less each, but some people may want to spend less, which is understandable.
-
!yorkshirebronies @trister the meal cost was £280 if I recall correctly. it sounds right. I personally spent £20 but assuming everyone spent £15 on average that would be £300. Assuming everyone (19 people as someone left) went bowling at £11/ea that's another £200. Places are expensive though - we may not really be able to do anything for that - but we'll just have to see! =3
-
@leonkfox no, it's not that bad, but the thing is that when you add in travel costs it can cost a single person something like £50ish for the day, and bear in mind some people don't have a steady source of disposable income. !yorkshirebronies can anyone remember if the meal cost was over £200 or just £100, it was a large amount but I have a nagging feeling it was more than I first thought
-
!yorkshirebronies @mattus701 Holy crap, an actual cinema screen? :D If we could have a mare-athon... Just think of the possibilities!
-
!yorkshirebronies @wychwood Hah, yeah, we all surround Leeds! I vote Leeds for default location! Question is, do we ever want variation or do we want to almost always meet up there?

@purplephish20 !yorkshirebronies I've added you, purplephish, but for future reference, anyone should be able to add themselves from the link. Edit Button -> Right click map -> Add marker. Or you can search a place. =)

!yorkshirebronies I have no qualms about where we end up, as long as the date is accessible to everyone.

!yorkshirebronies @klayking York would be fine by me, but who else can make it is a significant factor. If it's not ideal then there's no reason we *cannot* do Leeds again if more people can make it that way. I put myself on the map - and google maps has an integrated short URL feature, so this should hopefully also work if you want to trim that beast down a bit: http://g.co/maps/zqusk

@klayking !yorkshirebronies I have family in York, I can see if they know of any function rooms. It might be a few days before I can speak to them though, I'll keep you posted
-
!yorkshirebronies Is still early days, so nothing is anywhere near certain, but I'm just looking at the map, wondering about good places for meetups. It seems that anywhere above the Leeds area is a whole bunch of nothingness for many miles. Sheffield is always an option providing there is a lot of interest from the !midlands, and York has been suggested to me before. I'm currently trying to find any function rooms with internet and a projector in York, but having little success (most likely because I'm not putting much effort into my search). Any locations / venue suggestions would be nice if you have ever thought about this before, too!

!yorkshirebronies Ok, I have a plan! Click the link which I will paste at the bottom of this message, hit the big red EDIT button on the left, search for your home town, right click the red marker that is over your town and click "Add a placemark". Name it as your RDN name or whatever and then we can all use this to see who is where! Be sure to hit Save where the EDIT button used to be! http://maps.google.co.uk/maps/ms?msid=207883910633223854902.0004b7dc65df8087f8aa6&msa=0&ll=53.925486,-1.822817&spn=0.084807,0.264187

!yorkshirebronies Nice job on the video @trister - and on the Nightly Roundup ^_^

!yorkshirebronies Snow might be detrimental for travelling, yeah. As for gathering people's locations it would probably be best to just e-mail them or something, so someone can gather locations and check from there. As for a place for a future meetup York is a little more northern if we end up going that way, it's also more eastern though, if that might be a problem

!yorkshirebronies Apparently we will be getting snow in February. If this is the case, I think postponing the next meetup until March may be a sensible idea, what with travel and all. This gives plenty of time to plan stuff for the next meetup, such as location, activities and expected attendance. If we have 20+ again, what would you guys think about booking a function room? If we could get somewhere with internet, and a projector, who knows how much fun we could have!? What we need to do now though, is find a way of mapping everyone in the group, so we can find a good place that is near most of us. If I was more confident in my HTML skills, I would make a website for the group, but as it is I won't bother trying for now. P.S. Merrion Morrisons confirmed for not having blindbags.

!yorkshirebronies meetup video is finally up on youtube guys! check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-bimhKh4iI

!yorkshirebronies @elscire Speaking as somepony who already owns a Big Mac I can say that it would have been amazing to observe and video, especially in a store that small.
-
!yorkshirebronies @klayking we couldn't have done that anyway as it happens - I had a look when I was buying MLP magazine in there - it wasn't a big enough Morrisons and and didn't have any, unless I missed them somehow. Honestly this is probably just as well because I would hate to imagine the carnage that could ensue from 20 lustful bronies all fighting to get their hooves on numbers 7 and 11 (Rainbow Dash and Big Mac). Love and tolerance go out the window =P
-
!yorkshirebronies If only we had known that blind bags were in Morrisons, we could have just stormed the one right next to the bowling alley, and still not been late! This said, I'm so checking it out if I can actually sneak away from my classmates whilst we are in there tommorow lunchtime.
-
!yorkshirebronies @wychwood the video is edited and will be on youtube as soon as I have the time to upload it tonight. It's nothing fancy but it's still kinda cool in my opinion

!yorkshirebronies Thanks for uploading all pictures. Haven't given myself yet to check out the blind bags at my Morrisons, but hope to do so somewhere later this week.

@klayking !yorkshirebronies Sure, link to google docs folder for the meetup photos: https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/108525906259480342403/albums/5702828558829815489 and I've been told that you can't access those without a google account, so they are now on photobucket as well: http://s782.photobucket.com/albums/yy104/tornadotrist/Leeds%20Brony%20Meetup/

!yorkshirebronies the newest load of blind bags are available at morrisons too, got myself a meadow song and (another) lyra/heartstrings during my break at work today

!yorkshirebronies That's pretty good going @bored0stiff - it's supposed to be *checks receipt*.... £6.97 at Asda!
Sunday, 29-Jan-12 19:33:10 UTC from web -
!yorkshirebronies If any of you are near Doncaster, I went into their ASDA today and got these. It was incorrectly priced up as a £3.99 Polly Pocket toy! This makesup for them trolling me yesterday, a bit anyway... http://i1207.photobucket.com/albums/bb478/bored0stiff/IMAG0018.jpg

!yorkshirebronies Aaaargh, I seriously can't believe I got the day wrong -_- I thought it was tomorrow, kicking myself so hard. Hope everyone who *did* make it had a great day; I'll make it to whenever the next meet is, come hay or high water : )
