Sorry, I hope I've misunderstood you there and you're not saying that you're intending to drive when you're drunk :eek: And then make the situation even worse by offering lifts to complete strangers when you're in that state :eek:

its probably best if everyone makes their own way to the pub for the first meeting, and arranges their own means of getting home again afterwards. That way, everyone stays safe, and no-one is dependent on anyone else (or anyone else's mum :rolleyes:) for their journey home.

Geek meets are brilliant fun, I've been on several, but you do need to take a few basic safety precautions, the most important of which is knowing how you're getting home again !

13th Feb 2008, 07:01 PM
Meet ups are great fun but I agree it's sensible to be sure of your transport there and back and obvioulsy to let people know what you are doing and where you are going. :)

if we did anything like that, I'd have to hire a horse, not having one of my own. i was hoping to do some kind of horsey holiday this summer, but having no horsey friends i'd be a bit of a loner :p so this would be quite good! not sure a 48 hour hack sounds like a nice relaxing holiday though, ;)

It is not 48 hours! It is 48 miles that is split up into 3 days, staying at b&b's along the way with the horses, normal day is a relaxing 6 hourish ride, with a hour or so off in the middle. :)

Northwesten
19th Feb 2008, 03:16 PM

Perhaps just a good place to remind you all that you should only ever meetup in public places. NR is an open board so you never know who is looking in.

Just general internet safety, even although you 'know' people on a board meet them only in public places and preferably not on your own. make sure friends know where you are at all times and have a plan for them to contact you to check you are happy, my horse is ill can be a good get out if you feel uncomfortable.

Copying this to other current meeting threads
