!yorkshirebronies I'll have some time in the afternoon before college starts tomorrow, so I'll have a look around any restaurants near my college. I noticed a carvery today, with good looking deals on food, but I'll have to check again.
Monday, 16-Jan-12 22:00:42 UTC from web -
!yorkshirebronies @klayking I can do a little searching tonight and see what I can come up with, do we have any idea of numbers?
Monday, 16-Jan-12 18:00:21 UTC from web-
!yorkshirebronies @trister I'd expect anywhere between 10 and 20 of us at this stage.
-
-
!yorkshirebronies About food: Nando's indeed don't take bookings so it would be a huge gamble if we showed up en masse. Anyone from Leeds know of good places to eat? Preferably vegetarian friendly. I'll need to get this stuff sorted soon so throw out some suggestions!
Monday, 16-Jan-12 17:31:09 UTC from web-
!yorkshirebronies @klayking Most restaurants have at least 2 or 3 veggie options, and that's enough for me. Beside, it's lunch, so a salad might serve this veggie pony well too. Btw, am I the only one here who likes the taste of celery? :-p
-
-
!yorkshirebronies @mattus701 Bowling, food, and if you want to buy any shirts or toys then I suppose spare money can't hurt!
Monday, 16-Jan-12 17:29:03 UTC from web-
@mattus701 Great! We'll see you there then! That's correct, bowling and Nandos for dinner, we'll be making a stop at a t shirt printing place I believe so if you want a graphic printing have one ready on a memory stick or something
-
-
!yorkshirebronies @trister Sweet. We need a page for Yorkshire photos and stuff! @gizmo Best confirm that everyone here likes s̶c̶o̶o̶t̶a̶l̶o̶o̶ chicken then. Personally, I love it! All in favour of Nando's say Aye!
Sunday, 15-Jan-12 22:42:36 UTC from web-
!yorkshirebronies @klayking So I managed to rearrange my working days to get the 28th off. In other words: I'll be there. About the food: Nandos sounds good to me, as long as they have anything without meat or fish. Eeyup, one vegetarian unicorn here. And if not, I'll just stick to the salads and appetizers. Or should I bring my own carrots, celery, oaties and apples? :-)
-
@yorkiebrony Nando's is mainly chicken, you can have a look at their menu if you're unsure though, there should be some vegetarian options http://www.nandos.co.uk/themenu
-
@klayking Not sure if you've filled up the schedule for the 28th, but if you need any self-contained events I will be able to put together a small quiz or something, might be able to throw together a batch of baked bads as well, let me know if you need any more ideas, I'm glad to help
-
-
!yorkshirebronies @klayking Me & a friend have just found out about this & want to come is that okay?
Sunday, 15-Jan-12 23:54:03 UTC from web-
!yorkshirebronies @marusya We've got two weeks until the meetup! Of course it isn't too late! :D
-
-
!yorkshire COOL! trains are easy! Set off from Worksop at 9:14, with one switchover in Sheffield, and I arrive in Leeds at 11:02. #everythingwillgobetterthanexpected
Sunday, 15-Jan-12 23:36:57 UTC from web-
@yorkiebrony Well hello there! My train from worksop arrives in Sheffield at 9:48, and the train from Sheffield to Leeds is about 5 past 10, so that works out quite well I think!
-
@purplephish20 About 10.05? I'll try to hop on the same train. And I have MLP-shirts now :-)
-
@yorkiebrony Excelant! Excelant! I'll see you there
-
-
!yorkshirebronies @klayking It's not too late to confirm my attendance is it? I will probably be able to make it, and I can bring a pretty high quality camera for video/photographs if you're in need of one.
Sunday, 15-Jan-12 22:07:50 UTC from web-
@trister You work at pizza hut!!??? Man! It was going to be pizza hut but the only one we could find looked shut down.. They'll be another in Leeds surely
-
@purplephish20 I was there until after 1pm last night when we got an unexpected rush near closing time, it wasn't as great as constant access to pizza first seems. but yeah, mine is in teesside but I do have a little card that should allow me a discount if there is another one within walking distance, i can have a look if you like?
-
-
!yorkshirebronies I've only been to the Nando's a couple of times, pretty great, but if you're not fond of chicken there's not much on the menu
Sunday, 15-Jan-12 01:56:10 UTC from web -
!yorkshirebronies I've been noseying around at other restaurants in the area. Anyone here know what Nando's is like? Some of my friends speak very highly of it.
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 23:48:19 UTC from web -
!yorkshirebronies OK guys, it's the two week warning! Anyone wanting to go to Leeds on the 28th at 11am should be sure to arrange travel! Also, we really need to actually work out where we are going for food! Anyone from Leeds know a good restaurant? I'll book us in at the bowling place too, if everyone is OK with that.
Saturday, 14-Jan-12 12:17:14 UTC from web-
@rotation Yep! That's correct, and a trip to a t shirt printer in case you have a good thing on a memory stick you'd like on a shirt
-
!yorkshirebronies @purplephish20 I've been looking on Google maps, and found a Pizza Hut very near to the train station. Problem is that it is apparently permanently closed. I looked on their website too, and sure enough, it isn't listed. The next nearest one is soooo far away! D:
-
-
!yorkshirebronies Ok, by the end of the week I want to have finalised the plans. Who here would like to go bowling? Feel free to make other suggestions if you know of anything to do in Leeds. Also, where is a good place to eat? Once we have decided on places, I can get a rough headcount and book for us if necessary. Also, getting an idea of how many people want shirts would be useful, but I expect it to fall within the 2-10 bracket.
Wednesday, 11-Jan-12 23:22:27 UTC from web-
@Klayking Bowling would be Awsome but I honestly have no idea how to make my way around Leeds, like I said; I've only ever been once before in November 2009, to see Motörhead at the 02 academy... That was a mighty gig...
-
@purplephish20 Don't worry, it's right by my college so I know the route between the train station and the Merrion centre well. It is literally a 10 minute walk in a straight line!
-
-
!yorkshirebronies @purplephish20 @klayking dolein' is the word. No, make it UNBELIEVABLE! Make sure I hear 'unbelievable' next time. :) Now we just need details.
Wednesday, 11-Jan-12 23:19:18 UTC from web-
@klayking Good luck with that! The poster so far will be left until you're ready.
-
@stecissunrise Alrighty then! Did I mention already that the poster is mangoesin'? :D
-
@stecissunrise If you can finish that poster with a few of the finalised details I'm sure EQD would have it! It's great!
-
-
!yorkshirebronies @stecissunrise Oh my god, that is the most epic thing I have ever seen! :D It occurs to me that the design would make a badass shirt!
Wednesday, 11-Jan-12 22:51:22 UTC from web -
!yorkshirebronies Put me down for a yes, I'll be there for sure
Wednesday, 11-Jan-12 21:04:54 UTC from web-
!yorkshirebronies @klayking Look what I've been playing around with today: http://s87.photobucket.com/albums/k134/SteC87/?action=view¤t=bronyposter01.jpg
Gherkin ☑️ and - like this. -
@stecissunrise That looks absolutely f****** amazing!
-
!yorkshirebronies @klayking Haha, I suppose that might work xD And I'll bear the colours in mind. Maybe I'll dig out some line art or something...
Wednesday, 11-Jan-12 00:08:12 UTC from web-
!yorkshirebronies @purplephish20 Welp, thanks to my good friend Gordon Freemane, my single colour shirt design is ready! Remember, each extra colour costs you £2.50, so rainbows can be quite expensive! ------- If you were passing by in the street, would you notice the pony reference? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6674290/20%25coolerBOORIIIIING.png
-
@purplephish20 Well, at £2.50 per colour, even if I made the text blue and had the rainbow mane in it, it would cost £15 more than it would already. That's double the price! D:
-
-
!yorkshirebronies OK, by the end of this week I hope to have finalised the plans so we can get a post up on EqD about the meetup. It also gives you guys 2 weeks to sort out travel and stuff. The rough plan so far is: --- Meet @ Leeds train station @ 11:00am. Wait until 11:30 for everyone to arrive (if in doubt, get to Leeds earlier). Hang about somewhere, get to know each other. 12:30pm go get food (anypony know of a good place to eat?). After lunch, we can go raid the Tshirt Print store and go on a ponyhunt if anyone wants some official merch. At 3:00pm we should do something, but IDK what yet! :D Maybe we should take over a café and learn to draw ponies or something, heck even watch the new episode if we can get internet! Otherwise maybe we could find some less brony central activity. Will need an accurate idea of how many people are coming though so it can be booked. At 5:00pm I guess some people will want to return home, so I haven't made any plans for later. (What would Twi say?!)
Monday, 09-Jan-12 07:08:24 UTC from web-
!yorkshirebronies @purplephish20 Thankfully, almost everywhere connects to Leeds station. And it is indeed looking like we're going to have anywhere between 10 and 20 of us!
-
@klayking Phew! I highly doubt I can get a train straight there from Worksop, but getting to Sheffield is a breeze. I'll just have to set off early
-
@purplephish20 Yeah, I had to get my usual train to Leeds, followed by a Leeds to Sheffield for the November 5th meetup. Only took about 1 and a half hours, and cost £11. Totally worth it!
-
-
!yorkshirebronies @durandal If we got 10 of those cheap 2 way splitters then we could have enough jacks. :3 Also, keep in mind that Tshirt Print only has a small range of colours, and they charge for each extra colour afaik. Won't stop me getting a simplistic design though!
Tuesday, 10-Jan-12 20:25:36 UTC from web -
!yorkshirebronies It would be awesome to watch the new episode, but I can't think how we'd manage it. I know I successfully streamed May the Best Pet Win at a Leeds Cafe Nero when I was over there in November, but I doubt they'd appreciate us watching with the sound on, and I've never heard of a laptop with 10+ headphone jacks ; ) Oh, and I'll be buying at least one t-shirt.
Tuesday, 10-Jan-12 11:46:13 UTC from web -
@purplephish20 I'll let you know beforehand if I have the time off, but I'd really like to go to the !yorkshirebronies meet! (sorry keep posting the wrong tags)
Monday, 09-Jan-12 23:57:15 UTC from web -
I really want to go to one of these !midlands meet-ups, and the February 18th one would be great. Just now need to organize travel etc.
Monday, 09-Jan-12 19:50:33 UTC from web-
@theawesomepinkpony I'm not "new", but I'm just not on here very often.
-
@rotation Aye, I was thinking the same thing. Though I'm probably going to have to sort some other things out too.
-
@ceruleanspark Yeah, that one.
-
-
At the rate Boomerang is going, we'll probably get the second half of series two in 2014. !uk
Monday, 09-Jan-12 16:05:54 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Boomerang will NEVER pay for it
-
@greydragon412 "Secret of Success" at 4pm on Boomerang+1!
-
@greydragon412 yep, suited for success is just starting now on boomerang + 1
-
-
!uk Aha! My prediction was correct. Second half of the season is airing from today (episode 14) on Boomerang at 3pm.
Monday, 09-Jan-12 15:31:53 UTC from web-
@ecmc1093 It was Suited for Success. The best episode.
-
@thelastgherkin I got home halfway through so I missed Art of the dress! I must watch the repeat just for that.
-
@ecmc1093 @ceruleanspark So I just missed the uk premiere if Suited for success!!! Damn it! And damn my family!
-
-
!yorkshirebronies Hah, previous post was bang on the character limit! Anyway, the important things I need to know are: Who can make it on the 28th Jan from 11:00am? Where do we want to go for lunch? Who wants T-shirts? T-shirts are £15.50 each if 2 to 10 are ordered, £13.50 if 11 to 20 are ordered. I expect we'd be looking at the 2 to 10 deal if there is interest. Tshirt print told me in an email that we can have multiple designs in one order, so bring your graphics in on a memory stick and they can make them all as one order. After the ponyhunt, what should we do? Need activity suggestions! Again, having an idea of how many people want to attend is helpful!
Monday, 09-Jan-12 07:18:02 UTC from web-
@klayking Definitely coming to the meetup in Leeds. Might be bringing a couple of other bronies I know if I can persuade 'em to come, so watch this space.
-
@fl3tch3r2k Awesome man, bring everyone you can! The more the merrier!

!yorkshirebronies !uk !midlandsbronies !lincsyorkshirebronies @purplephish20 Man, @rotation does some serious travelling for his meetups! I would never expect him to travel that far, but he has done it before. I would enjoy seeing him again!
Saturday, 07-Jan-12 23:44:20 UTC from web -
@stecissunrise Oh man that would be awesome! Do you reckon you would be able to do a really good version of the Yorkshire OC for it? :D
Saturday, 07-Jan-12 23:12:51 UTC from web-
@klayking Draw him in? Of course!
-
@stecissunrise Man that will be awesome! I'm not so sure on the details yet other than it is planned for Leeds, hopefully on the 28th. Hopefully we can finalise the details by next week, which gives plenty of time for people to arrange travel!

@klayking !yorkshire I'm thinking if we get an advert like this poster up somewhere good we'd beat sheffield in terms of numbers, we could always ask the meetup king Rotation if he's interested in part-taking but he hasn't been seen (at least by me) in about a week so... !uk !midlands !lincsyorkshirebronies OI! You lot! Potential meetup in Leeds on the 28th! You interested?

!yorkshirebronies Just been watching the livestream of @BroNYcon. It's awesome. Me and a friend were discussing the remote possibilities of going at the end of June, when Lauren Faust will be there! Anyone else thinking of going? P.S. I'm Mark. I'm just a Bass. XD
Saturday, 07-Jan-12 23:35:19 UTC from web -
!yorkshirebronies Finally, Tshirt Print has responded to my questions: Thanks for the enquiry No box would be seen- that is just to show printable area when designing. And you can have several designs in one order. If you are ordering more than 10 tops then it is cheaper to come direct with me as I can offer a New Year discount
Saturday, 07-Jan-12 21:28:17 UTC from web-
@klayking I was thinking, would you like some form of advertising for the meetup? Like a poster if we get enough details?
-
@stecissunrise !Yorkshire oh a poster advert would be Awsome! We could get it on the nightly roundup beforehand if it's well made enough!
-
@purplephish20 Complete with every Yorkshire-isms in the book! Or *sigh* summat refined...
