    Yeah, I'm hoping they don't win. Travel is going to be hell over those dates!

    The Olympic Games and any bank holiday are an impossibility given travel difficulties during both for me. It's also worth observing that the Paralympics will be going on on the 1st September so it's not that wise to elect for that date either.

    I think someone secretly wants to come for a cuddle

    I have not decided whether I am going or not, there are are reasons for and against me going.

    I would like to point out that my birthday falls between Saturday 14th July and Saturday 21st July.

    Are you slyly trying to get yourself free drinks?

    I'm volunteering at the Olympics between 11th and 26th July but either side of that will be fine for me. Looking forward to putting faces to usernames!

    I live in London but am not able to come along this time. Maybe in the future when I'm little bit older and more independent, I'll come along as I'd definately like to put some usernames to faces, to quote Birchington. I hope to be here on MHoC for a few years yet and I hope you'll all still be around.

    Have a great time and I look forward to hearing how it went!

    Any of these dates clash with the Euros? I know im not going anyway, but it could be an issue for some football fans, if its anything after the quarter finals you can assume England will be out though

    I might actually be able to make this one as I'm moving down at the end of next month for going out on placement.

    No preference really, I'll just go along with whatever date is decided and see if I can meet you lot there.

    All my weekends in June are already busy and most of the start of July, as is the 11th August due to University debating (the European tournament is totally in Belgrade this year, that's gonna be awesome). Late August early September would be the only ones I could really do as such but otherwise am fully up for coming along.

    I can't make June or July, but I should be OK for August (15th and 16th would be a definite no though).

    At the moment it would be incredibly difficult to make any of these dates.

    I went for a weekday in early July before the olympics. It's all hypothetical as I can't afford to come to London, but it's likely easier to attend during the week while we're on our summer holidays.


    What actually happens in the meet up?

    Lots of detailed political debate over. Then some members often put on an impromptu recitation of Troilus and Criseyde or some such from memory.

    Standard practice for the youth of today I'm sure.

    We generally drink a bit and talk a lot.
