TS Official Meet Calendar 2015

Think it will be one or two meets for me this year - it's too expensive for travel now and hard to justify a seven hour round trip just for Towers. I do get scholarship and bursary payments in December which may go to a theme park fund.
 
Already considering asking the parents to babysit so that the husband and I can attend fireworks and stay over for the drunkenness...will see how things go. Looking forward to resuming riding coasters post-baby, I need my adrenaline fix!
 
Myself and littledelta is looking at going on the 21 march. unfortunately i am busy on sunday.
 
Tempted to do Drayton as well now. Depends on funds though. Towers is unlikely on the Sunday of the double due to no transport, unless I can buy a lift off someone!
 
We've also made some changes on how we provide information for meets this year. The main change is that we're going to get forum topics and meetup pages on the main website live in the next week or so for all currently planned meets for 2015. This means you'll be able to RSVP to every meet for the season straight away, rather than wait for the topic/page to go live. This should make it much easier to plan accommodation and lift shares for those of you that don't drive.

Following feedback, we're also going to publish a meeting time and location for the start of each day of the meet, and also to publish a time and location for the group photo to be taken each day. Whilst we'll still keep the casual and informal nature of meets, we think publishing times for meeting up and for photos in advance should prevent people from missing out.

Finally, the individual pages for each meet will be fully updated afterwards. The RSVP list will be removed and in it's place will be a selection of pictures, videos and highlights from the meet. The aim will be to produce an archive of what went on at each meet for this and future seasons for members to look back on.

We'll need your help on this though. We'd like to see whatever pics, videos or memories you have from each meetup this year. You can either post your pictures on the relevant meetup topics after the meet, or you can send them to our dedicated e-mail address

. Myself and other team members will also be on the lookout and may badger those of you we have on Facebook for permission to use any images we spot on there after meets too ;).

The pages are all but written, we're just needing to finalise a couple of things before we put them live in the next week or so. If anyone has any suggestions or feedback on what else they'd like to see though, please give me a shout!
 
I'm planning on doing every meet this year :D Subject naturally to the availability of cars, insurance and lifts
 
I am going to alton on the 21march from North Shropshire, seats available.
Please Note where will be Smoking in the car.
 
Something like that - the last one I remember seeing you on was Staffs Sandwich 2013, I think.
 
I'd love to get to one of these this year.

I don't have any annual leave left but I should know fairly soon if my days off happen to fall on opening weekend.

I can get to AT easy enough, I just don't know how you do rooms and such...isn't the AT hotel kinda pricey?

I don't drive either (thinking of the Drayton Manor or South one) but I was planning to learn that this year too :)

Usually the official meet accommodation is in a cheapish hotel, usually a travelodge .

Don't worry about not being able to drive, someone may be able to give you a lift to/from the parks.

Might do two days at towers for the summer meet instead of Drayton if we are staying at towers
 
I can't do Drayton now as I have a show to do that evening and I won't be back in time, but I'll try my best to do Towers on the Sunday.

:)
