In follow-up to the main meet-up thread, just thought I would put it out there to test the waters a bit - if I was to try and organise a Scottish meet-up (centrally in Glasgow somewhere), how many of you might be interested in coming along? (Loads of things dependent of course such as date, location etc. of course).

Potentially….
Have to look at getting time up and heading up there. I have a few friends up there that would help me find a hotel I am sure

Sounds good, I should actually be able to make this one! We could do it in a somewhere like rcade? (https://www.rcadeglasgow.com/) - that might take the headache out of finding a venue?

I'd be interested.
Although quite a long way but I actually missed the last meet up due to mix up with dates (wife's fault, lol). I've fancied going to Alan McCluskey's shop for ages anyway so could make a weekend of it maybe.
Wonder if anyone would be up for it from Lancashire and can share a lift?

I'd be up for this but would probably go by train

If you do come up I'd also love to visit Forgotten Worlds in Stewarton. Maybe I if you're here I would finally have an excuse.

Cool, sounds like a plan Andy mate, let's see if it happens. We'll need somewhere where we set up CRTs and a few Master Systems. I am actually wondering if Mr McCluskey might know anywhere like a pub/club or something then we'd be in the area anyway near his shop, if that makes sense.

This year? next year? Sounds like fun! I'd be up for it if finances allow it and dates are suitable 😅 Wonder if anyone would be up for it from Lancashire and can share a lift? I'd like to drive if going, could pop into Lancashire on the way 😅😉

I think it was originally this year, but I know from Allan's facebook page that he's really busy just now and time is marching on now. As we get closer to winter I doubt there will be as much appetite. If there's nothing happening soon we may have to plan something for next year.

My two cents, try and get a date in, even if it's 6 months out, otherwise it'll never happen.

Probably a good idea. I'll leave dates etc to the Scottish contingent on their home soil. Whatever date we look at I'll be there (hopefully).

Yeah, even busier than usual these days since I'm living in Scotland but working in London, so a good bit of travel in between family and work stuff. But it would be great to get something sorted for this year in terms of a Scottish meet. Maybe around the summer at some point.
