I was just reading the 'european browncoat' thread, and realised that nothing seems to be happening about this shindig idea. Is anyone seriously up for it? Even if we just hire out a room, grab a TV and watch Our Mrs Reynolds, could still be good?

Or is there something being planned in another forum somewhere, or a different thread?

As I said from the other post - I'm from Oxford - and as so many people seem to be from round here I would be up for a Shindig either here or London - Heathrow is particuarly easy for me to get to with 24 hour transport.........

As I said elsewhere, I'd go for that, if things worked out right.

Id probably be up for a shindig as long as it was planned in advance so Id have time to make plans (especially if it was down south)

if we were all given enough time and a date was set theres no reason why a european (uk based)firefly shindig couldnt take place.

I'd think a UK based european shindig would be a great idea.

if it should be easy to attend for non-UK europeans it would be best to host it around London-Stansted somewhere. as RyanAir uses this airport as their homebase and they have the most flights to and from there to all over europe:

is there a browncoat somewhere in the London area who would like to organise tomething?

I'd probably attent if possible. haven't seen London yet. I'm German by the way. from Nuernberg, southern Germany.

Right - well so far London seems most sensible. It's easy to get there from pretty much anywhere, but the question should probably be *where*? I can't think of anywhere particularly firefly-themed... Any ideas?

Oh, and when? At some point in Summer, when it's nice and sunny, presumably. But not in the middle of the tourist season when prices will go up...

Vaguey.

Yes! Very up for a UK shindig. I'm pretty flexible on location. Either at home (near Manchester) or Uni (Oxford), London is very accessible - although, as someone's already mentioned, London is much with the pricey for those who would need to stay that night and/or buy drinks.

Another thought is that we could do a small, preliminary shindig just as a pub meet somewhere, rather than hiring a room first time out.
