Off-Topic LBS Meetup :-)
OP: January 22, 2012, 10:13:47 AM
Hello everyone,

I hope this post finds everyone getting used to writing 2012 .So with the New Year, New Start for us all in mind, I thought it would be a great time to cheer us all up from the January blues with thoughts of May....

 That's when I was hoping to organise the next LBS Meet-up and everyone is cordially invited.

 As an extra special bonus we have XY coming over so Voyager and I thought that we would have a Northern Meet-up in the wonderful City of Leeds to say Hi to her.

 Now for me, a Lancashire Lass  to say the wonderful City of Leeds is an event in itself...but seriously Leeds is a vibrant City, with great shopping and lots to do and see.  For now I would like to find out who is interested in joining us on the weekend of Friday/Saturday/ Sunday 18th/19th/20th May 2012. 

As I said this meeting is opened to all our Forum LBS's International, European and UK-wide, so please let me know if you would like to come and I can start to put the wheels in motion.

In order to get things organised our end I would ask that people let me know by the end of February and as its a leap year you have an extra day for free :)

With love and hugs to you all    ;D

H - still a Vanisher - Maybe he will realise one day what he's lost...but after years of heart-searching finally it doesn't matter any more! I never thought when I was devastated in 2010 after 28 years of marriage - I could be happy again...but it's true - I'm done spinning my wheels - I learned to walk on the sunny side of the street and leave the shadows behind me. Brand new life for me & it feels good to be free of all the drama. No such thing as MLC - just men/women who run away & are too cowardly to talk about their issues, just cheat with other cheaters! Don't waste your gift of life on these pathetic spouses - live life & enjoy...don't waste your life wondering why...you will never know...Trust is precious don't waste it on people who don't know know what it means...

It would be nice if we could all stay in the same hotel, but these are just a few to consider, let me know your thoughts....

Thanks Foxberry for taking on the organization of this. I am so looking forward to meeting you, new friends and some old ones!

this will be my third meet up in Europe and one in California.....when I went to Luxembourg last year, I thought "I must be crazy"....."who are these people????"....my daughter and friends were actually concerned that I was going to be kidnapped or something. I thought it will probably be morose and sad and tearful.

What I found was an immediate connection, people who knew what this felt like, people who showed so much love and caring and concern for one another.....lots of fun times, lots of laughter...

It was for me a changing point in all of this...I came home knowing, truly knowing that I would be ok..and if I wasn't, Stayed was going to pester me to death until I was.

So, I just wanted to send out my 2 cents worth for some of you who may be hesitant...meeting other LBSers has been better than any therapy I have tried.....hope you are all having some good moments today.

That's what will get you through this..you start to have a few good moments and then  more and more..and yes it still hurts but it does truly get better.

See you in Leeds!

I'd love to come along and meet everyone. I'm not working that weekend so it must be meant to be  ;) I live in Scotland and would probably travel down by train.

Omg I nearly peed with excitement when I saw this I am only about an hour and a half away from Leeds. Do we have to come on our own though I was thinking maybe if my sister could come with me I am so not used to going anywhere I dont know on my own I will understand if that would be a problem.

CJ,
I am sure I speak for us everyone when I say that your sister is very welcome as your 'chaperone' - she needs to 'gen up' on the LBS lingo etc though!
Stay strong
