Edinburgh Planetarion Meet
It's a tiny meet. But a PA player one. I'm coming up to Edinburgh on the Saturday 14th January. Does any one person want to meet up with me? I'm doing this crazy project called "Meet Matt Chapman" but I doubt I'd get away with pimping that here, so I shant. But I'd really appreciate it if anyone wants to meet up, have a chat about PA, about PAN and about life over a bite to eat or a drink in Edinburgh on the evening of the 14th. I'll be arriving at EDI airport at about 8pm.
Anyone up for that? I'll even give you a unique t-shirt that I guarantee none of your friend will own!
Cheers!
Matt "Kloopy" Chapman
P.S. I'm a really friendly chap.

Re: Edinburgh Planetarion Meet
I'd like to meet you at some point, see what you're like, Edinburgh sounds like a good place. Oh, hold on, isn't that a different country?
(Yes Matt, I am VERY bored)

Re: Edinburgh Planetarion Meet
You don't necessarily need to talk about PA. I'd just like to Meet you. The idea can be found on my website here http://www.meetmattchapman.com/. The site isn't quite finished but as I'm off starting my MMC adventure soon I thought it best to put there what I currently have.
So have a read, see what you think and come and Meet me!

Re: Edinburgh Planetarion Meet
hmm...this sounds similar to a thing Danny Wallace did called "Join Me" where everyone joined a cult in the end whose objective was to make old people happy. You aren't making a cult are you? Please tell me your not

Re: Edinburgh Planetarion Meet
Wasn't that the craze where he had a mass cult of people but nothing for them to actually do? they all agreed to join up with him and he didn't actually have any sort of reason for the cult.

Re: Edinburgh Planetarion Meet
He's the one yes. He and Dave Gorman provided inspiration for this idea (details in the URL in my last post in this thread). It started from a drunken conversation in the pub one Sunday evening where I was dared to "go and meet that girl over there, she's looking at you". The conversation ended up creating Meet Matt Chapman with the t-shirts and travelling.
It's a bit like the things Gorman and Wallace have done, but I'm not doing it to write a book or profit, I'm doing it because I love the idea of a crazy tour round the country/Europe/the World. I'm mad, the idea's mad. We're suited for each other.
Anyhow, I've got my Meet for Edinburgh now. See you soon themast!

Re: Edinburgh Planetarion Meet
I will do, yes. Need to get started first with themast in Edinburgh. I'll get a photo of us both in our t-shirts and ask him some questions and write about my trip. Anyone who would like to input the type of things you'd like to hear about the people I meet please let me know.

Re: Edinburgh Planetarion Meet
I study in Stirling, which is 45 min from edinburgh by train, so I could pop over there for the night. Depends a bit on the train times though...
Why don't the the pa players that can make it earlier meet up in a pub somewhere around 18-19:00, then kloopy could join in when he arrives (and when the rest of us are really drunk and ready to say silly things).

Re: Edinburgh Planetarion Meet
Ok then.
We all need somewhere near Waverly Station. I'll be arriving into the airport at 8:15 Scotland time. I'll only have hand luggage so will be out of the airport quickly. My hotel is near to the bus stop for the airport shuttle (Waverly Station) and I will checkin before moving on to the pub.
I suggest we meet in the Standing Order. It's a Wetherspoon pub converted from the old headquarters of Scotland Bank. It's a big pub with lots of tables. The Wetherspoons chain serves drinks that everyone likes at a rather cheap price so it's ideal for us all.
I'll hopefully be there about 9pm but if you want to email me your phone number I'll call or text to let you know if I'm delayed. My number is +44 7765 843 999
Matt
[Edit: You can find details about the pub including it's location on the following URL: http://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.u...dingorder.html ]

Re: Edinburgh Planetarion Meet
Hey I noticed you're originally from Hertfordshire, So you should have no problem getting to Cambridge at some point? Are you up for a Cambridge meet: perhaps a game of poker and a few "gin and juices"
BTW, I'm 22 and I'm not a student anymore hehe
