Hey you British goofs, I'm going to England for the summer and you know what that means, we're gonna try another official meetup in England. Oh joy. I have no idea where to go but I haven't seen anything of London yet because some stupid fucktards decided to blow up some things last time we had planned a meetup. Let's hope this does not happen again! Anyway, I'd like to know who'd be able to come if there was a meeting in London. We can talk about dates later. It'll have to be somewhere beteen the 20th of July and the 6th of August.
PS. British people who are not goofs may also reply here and come to the meetup ;)
edit: banned people are not welcome. You know who you are (and if you read this you're doing something wrong).
Details:
Date - Wednesday 26th July
Time - 11:00am
Meeting place - Charing Cross Station under the huge displays for the national trains

Yeah i'll probably come, depending where you guys are thinking of meeting up; since 20th July-6th August is in the middle of my holidays.
Ooh i might drag Fi-chan along too.

Dark Bring
June 22nd, 2006, 12:22 pm
Although I have confirmed that there will be no untimely visits from my parents, I will suspend total confirmation until my exam results come out. =/

Moonlight_stalker
June 24th, 2006, 07:40 pm

Neko Koneko
June 26th, 2006, 03:30 pm

Dark Bring
June 29th, 2006, 01:08 am
Alright, I can confirm that I can definitely turn up.

an-kun
July 7th, 2006, 09:39 am

BombomCloud
July 7th, 2006, 10:51 am
I'm free on that week, I hope! Cars 2006 comes out on Friday right?
Where are we meeting?
Thorn
July 7th, 2006, 02:21 pm

and im not a dildo! *sulks*
Neko Koneko
July 7th, 2006, 02:40 pm
No, you're dildoMAN, protector of all that's Dildo-ey.
Moonlight_stalker
July 7th, 2006, 04:32 pm
Yep 24th-26th should be fine for me. (unless something important comes up, which i doubt will.)
So decided where we might go?
Fi-chan
July 7th, 2006, 05:18 pm
24-26th JULY?! omdays! that's so near! but yea, it's fine for me too.....

Where are we meeting?
London....um...I take it Angelic and Spoony and Thorn will arrive at victoria station. I don't know what's convenient for anyone else. We could meet at Marylebone station?
If the Brummy crew don't know how to use the underground I'll come and pick you up from there first if you want?

Okay. I'll need to know my way to Maryleborne Station...*looks for tube-map* Look out for a 5 ft 1 inches chinese girl with glasses and dresses like a boy.

How old are you Bombom? cause you sound like me! XD
DarkMagician
July 7th, 2006, 09:00 pm
Marylebone station???? far too convinient for you!!!!!!! but not for me....and not to a lot of people too i suppose!!! hahahaha~~~
an-kun
July 7th, 2006, 09:11 pm
hehe shh! ok er you come from charing cross station, so hmm let me just actually check the map. Ok do people prefer Charing Cross or Marylebone? Both are open so its easy to spot people.
Thorn
July 7th, 2006, 10:01 pm
i have no idea where i would get in....
i need to find out the dates first before i check train stuffs *nods*
Neko Koneko
July 8th, 2006, 10:07 am
One thing's for sure, the brummycrew should be travelling together ^_^
Sephiroth
July 8th, 2006, 02:14 pm
charing x would be perfect for me
Moonlight_stalker
July 8th, 2006, 02:48 pm
Marylebone's better for me, but both are quite far, so whichever one doesn't really matter.
Madmazda86
July 8th, 2006, 08:48 pm
Ahoy - Spoony already texted me to ask. Yes, I'll be coming - I'm free from the 24th onwards. Name your date and I'll show up - I'm only 40 minutes away by train. Charing X suits me as the meeting station if it suits other people - I'd be coming in at King's X which is on the same tube line as Charing, so no worries, though I can go anywhere else if need be ^_^ Here's hoping I don't contract some rotten viral infection this time! I know a really cheap Chinese in Leicester Square that we could go and eat at - the staff are really rude but the food is cheap and the portions huge ;)
Neko Koneko
July 8th, 2006, 09:28 pm
Cheap Chinese food \o/
an-kun
July 8th, 2006, 09:35 pm
Looks like it's Charing Cross. Bombomcloud you can get there right?
Hmm communication with mobiles...Maz do you want to take up that role again?
Sephiroth
July 8th, 2006, 10:36 pm
Cheap Chinese food \o/
wahhhhhh why not subway :cry:
Thorn
July 9th, 2006, 09:15 am

Yeah- thats a good idea actually... who of the definates are going to be in the brummycrew?

oooOOOOoohh I know that one, all the tourists go there just to see the staff. Yeah it's cheap, but I heard that the restaurant gave a few people food poisoning. @_@
Neko Koneko
July 9th, 2006, 02:16 pm
wahhhhhh why not subway :cry:
Dinner ;)
Sephiroth
July 9th, 2006, 03:09 pm
ohhhhh yeaaaaa B)
DarkMagician
July 9th, 2006, 05:38 pm
i wouldnt suggest that place....far too not comfortable! hahahaha~~
charing cross/victoria...whichever suits me just fine....
PFT_Shadow
July 9th, 2006, 10:09 pm
you lot pick the station and i'll get there. im not fussed
an-kun
July 9th, 2006, 10:13 pm
You know I've already said Charing Cross people...
actual date - tba soon
Thorn
July 10th, 2006, 08:41 am
*pokes* who else is coming from Brum?
BombomCloud
July 10th, 2006, 10:20 am
How old are you Bombom? cause you sound like me! XD
I'm 16! (Yah!) and I'm short compared to my friends. There's an 11 year old girl that is taller than me!
To An-kun : Yep. I'm coming striaght from New Cross Station to Charing Cross station.
Does anyone want my mobile number?
If we are meeting at Charing Cross, are we going to stand somewhere so everyone can meet up?
DarkMagician
July 10th, 2006, 02:27 pm
outside burger king then~~~~
BombomCloud
July 10th, 2006, 03:03 pm
Yah! I wonder where are we going to go after that?
Moonlight_stalker
July 10th, 2006, 05:10 pm
An-kun was suggesting that after meeting up at Charing Cross, we go Hyde Park, to chat and get to know each other.
Any more ideas?
Sephiroth
July 10th, 2006, 05:12 pm
lol being a londoner i dont really know london that well. all i know of is where the stations are. roughly where the clubs are and of course where subway is XD
Moonlight_stalker
July 10th, 2006, 05:21 pm
XD hahah, well where do you lot want to go?
Hopefully it'll be sunny, so Hyde Park would be good. It's sorta been decided that lunch is gonna be in Leicester Square somewhere from the last few pages...
Does anyone actually wanna go see the sights? Or just walking around?
BombomCloud
July 10th, 2006, 05:31 pm
Not the London Eye!
Moonlight_stalker
July 10th, 2006, 05:32 pm
no way.. that thing is so boring <_<
Do you guys wanna go to like a centre sorta thing? like i duno.. not ice skating but an activity, if you dont wanna go walking in random parts of London?
[just an idea.......]
BombomCloud
July 10th, 2006, 05:35 pm
Hmmm....there's some places we haven't thought of.....I'll come back!
Sephiroth
July 10th, 2006, 05:46 pm
ooo oo i know trucadero arcade center ^_^
Moonlight_stalker
July 10th, 2006, 05:47 pm
haha yeah, who's up for ddr? :shifty:
EDIT: i'm not that good, but it'll be jokes.
BombomCloud
July 10th, 2006, 06:15 pm
Woot. Time for some Time Crisis and House of The Dead!
I shouldn't spend some much on arcade! :heh:
Moonlight_stalker
July 10th, 2006, 06:21 pm
yeah... maybe going Troc isn't a good idea then... cause i'll spend too much...
Ack.. so what other ideas???
BombomCloud
July 10th, 2006, 06:25 pm
Gosh...I never knew how London could be THAT boring.
Ummmm...anymore parks?
Sephiroth loves his Subway! ^_^
Moonlight_stalker
July 10th, 2006, 06:27 pm
hm..... *gets out my tube map*
can't really go shopping, cause of the guys, but then i can't be assed to walk around crowded streets going through messy shops...
i'll go online and search around for interesting places to go...
Asuka
July 10th, 2006, 06:29 pm
You could stand around Big Ben and ask people what time it is...
Moonlight_stalker
July 10th, 2006, 06:46 pm
urm... just an idea, any one for quaser?
Yeah the shooting laser thingy in the dark.
BombomCloud
July 10th, 2006, 06:51 pm
I know one near Bromley. Is it a laser gun shooting thingy?
an-kun
July 10th, 2006, 07:06 pm
Yeah er Bombom cloud check your private messages!
Ain't that stuff expensive though? Er for Angelic's sake we could view somethign touristy.
hmm trocadero...I got a high score there in house of the dead 4 or whatever it is. XD Well I'll list the ideas as well at some point and we can choose what to do from it.
Dark Bring
July 10th, 2006, 08:14 pm
I say Trocadero is a must.
Everyone must play DDR at least ONCE.
DESERTERS WILL BE SHOT*.
This should be an annual Ichigo thing**.
*with a water pistol!
**So why do I have this feeling that . . . ?
Thorn
July 10th, 2006, 08:21 pm
You could stand around Big Ben and ask people what time it is...
lmao!! that would be the best ever!! we HAVE to do that....
or at least let me do it :heh:
Neko Koneko
July 10th, 2006, 08:39 pm
haha yeah, who's up for ddr? :shifty:
No.Sodding.Way.
Sephiroth
July 10th, 2006, 08:41 pm
haha why not even i would give it a go
an-kun
July 10th, 2006, 08:46 pm
we could go to buckingham palace and try to make the guards laugh?
Neko Koneko
July 10th, 2006, 08:55 pm
Moment people start doing DDR they're no official ichigos-crew anymore =P
DarkMagician
July 10th, 2006, 08:55 pm
hmm.......troc is nice....though i prefer watching and point at people while i laugh! hahaha~~
why would you want to make the guards laugh???????? =S totally lost you there hun!!! ^^"
an-kun
July 10th, 2006, 08:58 pm
because they stand still....they're trained not to flinch or move or change their facial expression. So everyone tries to make them laugh because they always look so serious.
DarkMagician
July 10th, 2006, 09:00 pm
hmmmm.....ok, but would that be rather..........rude and horrible to them??? you know, if it is a hot summers day, then its really a pain for them and if you go and do that......................i'd laugh my head off!
Neko Koneko
July 10th, 2006, 09:25 pm
It's a common tourist past time I think =P At school we once did a little play about it, lol.
Dark Bring
July 10th, 2006, 09:27 pm
because they stand still....they're trained not to flinch or move or change their facial expression. So everyone tries to make them laugh because they always look so serious.The stories about getting a THWOCK from the wooden end of the rifle are true and substantiated. Do not ask.
an-kun
July 10th, 2006, 09:45 pm
that's when they switch arms though isn't it? like every 15 mins?
Dark Bring
July 10th, 2006, 09:48 pm
Or when you disturb them too much.
If the weather is good we should be out, of course, but for rainy days there's always Trocadero.
an-kun
July 10th, 2006, 09:56 pm
@Angelic - Don't worry, we won't force you to do DDR, I don't particularly want to do it either since I've got DDR crazed friends.
Neko Koneko
July 10th, 2006, 11:12 pm
We'll just stay clear of any place that has DDR machines XD
Sephiroth
July 11th, 2006, 10:17 am
what???????/ man i never been trucadero :cry: i heard its like a 5 floor arcade center with all types of retro games and mini bowling and stuff. we wouldnt have to go on the ddr
Neko Koneko
July 11th, 2006, 10:41 am
Arcades are expensive though. It's not like I have money growing out of my back or anything, neither do I have a money tree. Besides, when I go to London I'm more interested in sight seeing because I've never been there before.
Moonlight_stalker
July 11th, 2006, 10:55 am
what???????/ man i never been trucadero :cry: i heard its like a 5 floor arcade center with all types of retro games and mini bowling and stuff. we wouldnt have to go on the ddr
Oh yeah it's quite big! They have bumper cars, bowling, cinema and alot of games @_@
They have this hilarious horse riding game. :heh: I'm never gonna go on that again..
The buckingham place thing sounds fun, i DARE one of you to perv on them XD
Hm.... what kind of touristy places you looking for angelic? Not museums...
Dark Bring
July 11th, 2006, 11:27 am
Meet at Charing Cross, have some munch at Leicester Square, walk to London Eye. On the way we can go to Trocadero, National Gallery, Big Ben, etc etc etc.
Moonlight_stalker
July 11th, 2006, 11:29 am
edit: ignore.......
Asuka
July 11th, 2006, 11:43 am
London Eye is pretty close to Big Ben
BombomCloud
July 11th, 2006, 12:13 pm
Are we going to walk around the London Eye?
Dark Bring
July 11th, 2006, 01:14 pm
More of a walk along the Thames, unless people want a ride on the London Eye. =/ There are things to see and such, but not much excitement for the youngsters besides meeting up with other forum members.
BombomCloud
July 11th, 2006, 01:19 pm
Can some of us stay down while others can go on the London Eye to see the nice view of the Thames?
Dark Bring
July 11th, 2006, 02:00 pm
Not many people will want to go on the London Eye, I think. =/
Moonlight_stalker
July 11th, 2006, 02:10 pm
But Angelic hasn't come down to London before, and it's only fair to let him go see the sites, and as it's a meetup, i don't think people should split up.
Edit.. i'm such an idiot.. and and blind one at that.. x_x
Dark Bring
July 11th, 2006, 02:14 pm
Note the difference between going to the London Eye and going on the London Eye. I don't mind waiting if you guys want to go on the Eye; its only about half an hour's wait.
DarkMagician
July 11th, 2006, 02:15 pm
on a summers day.....no way on the london eye!!! coz youre like...trapped in a tight greenhouse for thirty minutes!!!!!!!
jap food maybe if you guys want?? its pretty close to charing cross, called gili gulu if anyone heard of it.
Moonlight_stalker
July 11th, 2006, 02:17 pm
Oh yeh i've heard of that, is it expensive? Cause i know quite a few cheap ones in China Town.
Neko Koneko
July 11th, 2006, 02:19 pm
Cheap is good. Japanese food usually isn't cheap, so I'd rather not eat Japanese food.
Dark Bring
July 11th, 2006, 02:35 pm
Gili Gulu is GOOD.
Down the street from Wong Kei, the Chinese restaurant that Maz mentioned earlier on, there's Misato, a Japanese restaurant that is frequented by alot of university students because the price there is good for the big portions they serve.
Fi-chan

DEFINITE NO NO to gili gulu......i went there on sunday and it is THE WORST place for jap food....it's more like western suited oriental food e.g seaweed and spring rolls?! (it took me a while to stabilize myself to the fact that they had spare ribs and prawn crackers at a self -claimed jap restaurant). What jap food they did have there had been made and sat there for so long that it had gone all dry........so erm........i strongly object to going there...
i like misato! *nod nod*

There's another Gili Gulu around Tottenham Court Road. @_@

Question: Are we spending the whole day together?
DarkMagician
July 11th, 2006, 04:13 pm
i think thats optional.......if people want to go, i think anytime.....the idea i think is to stay together as long as people want.....
BombomCloud
July 11th, 2006, 04:15 pm
Cool. Thanks Dark Magician! ^_^
DarkMagician

Dark Bring
July 11th, 2006, 05:05 pm
i went to the one opposite Leicester Square st.The good Gili Gulu is in Soho, but it's not a very good place to bring a 15 year old to. =P
Fi-chan
July 11th, 2006, 05:06 pm
hahahahahahahahaha well...................i've been there before.................
but now i have a phobia of going to gili gulu..........it was a painful experience..........T.T
DarkMagician
July 11th, 2006, 06:50 pm
theres 2 of them????? ive onliy been to one..........which is which???? the one that is at the corner of a building the good or th bad one???
an-kun
July 11th, 2006, 08:02 pm
no offence but I don't want to turn this into a chinese outing guys. Emphasis is on CHEAP food for the sake of Angelic because of the disadvantages of foreigners with the exchange rate. that gili gulu expensive?
The plan is to spend the whole day together. Anyone can leave at anytime depending on their own circumstances and choices. Do you guys like want to have an ice-breakers thing? I'll try and make things go smoothly so that nobody's uncomfortable or feels left out. Has everyone got at least someone else's mobile number?
an-kun
July 11th, 2006, 08:13 pm
Right details!
Date - Wednesday 26th July
Time - 11:00am (for the chinese - don't be late! Tends to be a habit!)
Meeting place - Charing Cross Station under the huge displays for the national trains
Schedule - People want to:-
1. Eat
2. Visit the London Eye
3. Go to trucedero (sp?)
People can leave whenever they want to suit their own circumstances. Treat everyone with respect just like you do on the forum.
Anything else?

no offence but I don't want to turn this into a chinese outing guys. Emphasis is on CHEAP food for the sake of Angelic because of the disadvantages of foreigners with the exchange rate. that gili gulu expensive?
The plan is to spend the whole day together. Anyone can leave at anytime depending on their own circumstances and choices. Do you guys like want to have an ice-breakers thing? I'll try and make things go smoothly so that nobody's uncomfortable or feels left out. Has everyone got at least someone else's mobile number?Doing a chinese outing in London is a very ambitious project that I would think twice about attempting. =P
Gili Gulu is quite expensive, but Wong Kei would be good. Misato may be too small and/or busy to accomodate us, and the food is pricier, but better, IMO.There is also a Burger King and McDonald's (and Bella Italia and TGIF and Häagen-Dazs) nearby for those uncomfortable with oriental cuisine.

yeah that's what i thought. It'll prob take too much time serving as well. We could do fast food or come back to sephi's subway. whatever appeals to the masses.

July 12th, 2006, 10:55 am
Right details!
Date - Wednesday 26th July
Time - 11:00am (for the chinese - don't be late! Tends to be a habit!)
Meeting place - Charing Cross Station under the huge displays for the national trains
Schedule - People want to:-
1. Greetings, Ice-breakers, etc.
2. Eat at pizza hut
3. Visit the London Eye
4. Go to trucedero (sp?)
People can leave whenever they want to suit their own circumstances. Treat everyone with respect just like you do on the forum.
Anything else?
ok angelic doesn't want to go to trucedero so I was thinking whilst he's on the London Eye with Spoony and anyone else who wants to go, a group of us could go to trucedero in that time and meet up a while later? I'm trying to be time efficient rather than the complications of splitting up the group.
Er Angelic/Spoony, do you want to visit Trafalgar square? (place with a heck of a lot of pidgeons)
Neko Koneko
July 12th, 2006, 10:58 am
I don't like pidgeons :mellow:

Quite a few free attractions, and offers on eating places...but i'm guessing pizza hut is set now.

Madmazda86
July 15th, 2006, 06:47 pm
We'll miss you two! One day we'll have a meetup where everybody's together - 2007 anybody? XD
Pizza Hut's good with me, ditto the date. There are quite a few Pizza Huts around the Leicester Square/Piccadilly Circus area so it won't take too long to find somewhere that can fit us all in - how many of us are there gonna be anyway?
Also, concerning mobile numbers, I have the following people's numbers providing you haven't changed them since you gave them to me:
Spoony
An-kun
Thorn
Sephiroth
If you have changed it, text me your new number - mine is the same since the last time we tried to organise a meetup. If you want my mobile number, PM me - it'd be handy if you gave me yours as well so that at least one of us has EVERYBODY'S mobile numbers. We don't want anybody being stranded, especially if we're splitting up!
We could go bowling after dinner if people are amiable and Angelic and Spoony don't have anything else planned? I think there's bowling in the Trocadero. Also Tower Bridge is quite pretty at nighttime if people wanna have a look at it ^_^
Edit: Just thought of something else we can do if the non-Londoners fancy a bit of anime-related shopping - there's the big Forbidden Planet megastore on Shaftesbury Avenue that's fun to browse around. There's also the big Blackwells that has 3-for-2 manga, and the Japan Centre in erm, Leicester Squarey-area as well. Haha, I sound like I know London but I really don't - never ask me to direct you to any of these places :\
Man, it's gonna be nice to have something to look forward to after coming off placement :D

I kind of wonder why people who are in America feel a need to say that they won't be able to come to a meeting in England, it's like stating the total obvious. It's only useful to state that you can't come if previously you stated that you can come, but something came up. How hard is common sense for some people?
Dark Bring
