Anyone interested in an AVALON SW meet-up?

[Spirithorse]

Hi everyone,

I know the folks from London are busy preparing their next meet-up.
Made me wonder if anyone of you guys living in the South West (of England of course) would also want to have a local gathering?

Glastonbury was suggested, it has some nice cafes and it is usually regarded as being of some interest to people from other places.

So, any suggestions about time (or even alternative locations) are welcome.

Thanks

Centreofflight is in Bristol at the moment and couldn't make the London meet-up as he'll be back in Switzerland by March - so I think he'd like to do something your way if you contact him. He was at the Tor recently. Good luck Sab ...

Hi Spirithorse,
Yes I'm definitely up for this :-)

I'm only free at weekends or possibly on a wednesday...when were you thinking? I haven't got much free time in Feb/march but am freer in April onwards. Unless we do something soon to include Centreofflight. I'll chat with you tomorrow about possible dates

Hi there,
Would love to meet up. Unfortunately, I can't make the London meet up but this one may fit the bill.

Just spotted this- how close to Ross on Wye is everyone I would be happy to host a meetup I am close to motorway links. we could have a simple meal together and if you bring a sleeping bag you can stay the night. Loads of worry free parking . see what you think

Hi guys,

That's great! Thanks for your responses, I'm sure we can work something out. I'm busy with work at the moment but I will be onto it soon. Keep on sending your suggestions and we'll find the best solution, I'm sure.
xx

edit to add:
A number of you have contacted me via pm, thank you! There seams to be some interest in a get-together, that's brilliant.
Could those of you, who have pm'ed me please also leave a quick note on this thread with a suggestion about the time that would suit them?

I've also been in touch with Bill and the Ecuador team and some of us (me included) are seriously considering going to visit Bill and his 'crew'. It's getting exiting....

I'm keen, near Taunton, Glastonbury sounds like a good choice! Thanks for starting this thread spirithorse!

Yes, thanks Simone, I live between Bath and Wells, so Glastonbury will be a good mid-way point then, and it's got some great cafe's and the Chalice well is so beautiful in Spring...if the rain has stopped by then...

Glastonbury is a good place, strong Energies there. Let me know and I will be there.

[Spirithorse]

Thanks for your suggestions.

At the moment two dates have been suggested - either Saturday 1.3. or Saturday 8.3.
Time: 1 or 2 pm.
Glastonbury seems to be the location of choice so far. Not a bad choice I would say, they have some nice places (and some interesting shops) there.
We could meet in one of the cafes on High Street. Glastonbury is a small town and eventually you will end up on High Street anyway.

If the weather permits and we decide we want to go and breathe some fresh air, Chalice Well, the famous sacred gardens and springs, is a good choice indeed.

It's all up to you.
In order to reserve some space for us, it would be good to know how many of you want to come.

Looking forward to meeting you in person :-)

Update:

I'm still awaiting replies from centreoflight, golden lady and Sabrina.
Sheme can't come because of her dogs - the other ones, who have come back to me are fine with both dates, so we can leave it up to those who haven't replied yet.

Concerning the time, of course we can be flexible here, if somebody wants to spend a bit more time exploring Glastonbury, that's fine. We can meet earlier.
Just let me know what you guys would prefer...and I'll try to make it happen :-)

Hi Spirithorse, I now can't do the 1st - my daughter has an exam in Bristol on that date and I have to take her. Hope this is ok, is the 8th still a good date for everyone?

I still haven't heart back from a couple of you. Those, who have replied were fine with both days, so we have our decision now.

It's Saturday 8.3.14.
Shall we say about 12.30 - 1 pm?

[lysander]

Excellent thanks for arranging this Simone!

[golden lady]

Hi Spirithorse,
Have sent you a PM.

[Spirithorse]

Hi All,

At the moment we are 8 and I'm going to pm you with the location details once we get closer to the date.
By the way, I just got a message from a new member, Domo67, who is looking forward to joining us on the 8th.

Welcome do Avalon, Domo67!

Perhaps we can have a camping weekend here some time when the weather gets better just bring your food and drink and your bug out bags/tents . Have a great time in Glastonbury. Love to all.

That's not a bad idea, sheme.

Maybe you want to start an invite thread on that a bit later in the year...?
Also, it might be interesting for people living a bit higher up. It's great that regional Avalon meet-ups are happening.

Funnily enough, the London group has their get-together on the same day - 8th March :-)

I look forward to meeting you all on Saturday.

Thanks Simone and all for a lovely coffee and chat session.....Cheers Steve....
