A BLOGGERS BASH IS PLANNED

A BLOGGERS BASH IS PLANNED



Following an earlier post, [blog SensSensibility] and I have had intense discussions about organising a bloggers bash in Europe, open to all bloggers worldwide. It would be great to meet up with fellow bloggers - see also [post 3362910].

To get things going, it would be useful to know who would be potentially interested in attending this bloggers bash one weekend. Obviously, it all depends when it’s held, where it’s held and who’s going. Please let us know if you (and partner if not single) would be interested in attending a weekend bash. If so, what weekends (or months) are good for you?

Also, please let us know where you’d like the bash to be held. Berlin has been mentioned for the 21 June weekend. Other possible locations are Amsterdam, Barcelona, Brussels, Copenhagen, Dublin, Edinburgh, London, Paris, Rome, etc. If interesting, where would you like to meet up and how far are you prepared to travel?

Finally, what sort of things would you like to happen at a bloggers bash? How organised or unorganised would you like a bash? Any advice would be most welcome.

I’ve searched far and wide for potential venues for a bloggers bash and have found five suitable hotels – see photos above and below.

How interested would you be attending a bloggers bash in Europe?
If interested, when and where would you like the bash to take place?
Do you have any advice for us in organising a bloggers bash?
If you had to stay in one of the five hotels pictured, which one would you check-in to?


I quite fancy Big Dick’s Halfway Inn but, as my dick can only go quarter-in, I’ve been banned from this establishment. Only joking! I’d check-in to Dick’s All the Way Inn with rooms still vacant!









A similar invitation has been posted on the Bloggers United! group - see BLOGGERS BASH post.

I've managed to sneak the Big Dick's photo in again. The photo was the American Big Dick's; I don't think we have Big Dick's in Europe!
You won't be missing anything as there aren't enough of us to organise a bash.

I'm afraid there's not enough of us to go ahead with the bash. There were less than a handful interested and that's even before deciding the location and date. But thanks for your interest; perhaps there'll be more interest another time.

Unfortunately there's not enough of us in Europe interested to arrange the bash!

My apartment is always ready for your visit.

    Quoting AmeliaCox:
    Regrettably Europe would be impossible for me... Not only could I not save that sort of money over the next few months but I have no passport and getting one at the moment would be a costly and convoluted exercise.

    My only hope of attending a blogger's bash would be in any state of Australia unless I win the lottery, then I'd be happy to pay for a few extra folks to be able to attend whose only impediment was affording it.

    Hopefully, there will be a blogger's bash in Australia within the next 12 months and I will definitely attend but will have to save like a mother.
There's not enough of us in Europe interested to arrange the bash. I will save my pennies for the Australia bash, a bash to end all bashes!

And PassionCork can bring all the alcohol and food! That seems eminently fair.

Thanks for your interest. I think wherever we hold it, there won't be enough of us to bash!

I think a very long weekend spending one night at each of these fine establishments would make for a great bash!

    The Scottish Highlands.....kilts might be fun...

    I organized an event for 500 of my associates in Hawaii..it took 18 months of planning....

    blue...
A bash in kilts would be good.
We've spent a week planning a bash and we've called a halt already!

I'm afraid we had to cancel preparations for the planned bash as only three people were interested! Perhaps another day.
