Chrons Dublin and Belfast cluster meet -2019

[Jo Zebedee]

I'm guessing this one is down to me and @Kerrybuchanan to do a formal meet and greet! I know several Chronners are thinking of heading over.

The events:

Worldcon 15-19 August

Dublin 2019: Official Website for the 77th World Science Fiction Convention


Eurocon 22-24 August

TitanCon Belfast



Dublin and Belfast are about 100 miles apart with a good road between them. There are also buses - and there will be buses for the convention in my understanding- and a train every 3 hours which takes 2 hours. Both have international and domestic airports/airlines

What I'm proposing is we have a Chrons get together in Dublin and in Belfast (which will be the smaller I assume). Date to be formalised nearer the time to allow for any members on panels/helping out etc etc.

For now: expressions of interest, indicating which/both events you would be interested in, and any questions.

Let's make this a rocking Chrons get together!

She just volunteered me! But then she knew she'd never manage to keep me out anyway.

I need you!

I'm hoping for both but I'll have to check finances and if I can get time off work, I will definitely be at one.

 

[Zoe Mackay]

I'm planning on coming to WorldCon!

 

[Abernovo]

I'll be there, should be for both. Perhaps penniless, considering how much this is probably going to cost, but there.

Can't help with Dublin but you'd have a sofa to kip on for the Belfast one xx

How much room is there on that sofa? Depends on how friendly we are, I suppose.

Already saving for this, been interested since EasterCon in Manchester.

Jo may have to build an extension on her house to fit the new Chrons sofa!

Ditto. Will be good to meet up again with familiar faces, and new ones.

I'll leave that entirely between you and Aber..... ;p

I have sofas, too. In fact by 2019, I might even have spare rooms. Surely I'll have managed to kick some of my kids out by then.

Oh yes I think I have to stick my oar in for this. Who's making the bacon sangers for the mornings after?

I do love a vounteer. Cheers, dan!

I live in a Wendy house. But there is always the spider-infested garage

I'll put a tentative hat in the ring, I also have friends somewhere in Ireland that I can bother as well...

 

[millymollymo]

Ok... it looks like everyone's getting settle in, so I'll place my order. We need a large sized garden; hubby does amazing
American BBQ

 

[nixie]

I'm not fussy, don't eat in morning as long as there is plenty of tea.

I can provide that. We also have both gas and charcoal BBQs for your delectation.
