If this is a bad-bump, sorry. But This is coming up in three months, and I thought that as this thread could still be of use to anypony around the UK, bumping this could help bring the event to peoples attention. If I've just done a bad, Sorry... But maybe this thread should go in Meetups now? Could a mod move it please? Thanks
This meet-up is going to happen in the future still, so it's still relevant. I'll move it now. ~Moved to Meet-up Discussion~
Okay, Thorpe Park is in the south east of England I believe, near London. It's the theme park, y'know? It'll be on the 15th of August. If you're coming, you should joi this FB group. Not everyone attending has, but it'd be helpful if ya could, so we could get a good idea of numbers. https://www.facebook.com/pages/BronyscreamUK/279515288769528
Would love to go so much, but unfortunately I have no means of travel; I am a teen and my parents remain obsolete to Bronies. Even if they did, they would hate me seeing 'strangers' so far from home. Maybe in a few years. Buck, I hate my parents sometimes. Wouldn't even be able to do the pizza battle if I did go. :I Tl;dr: Sucks to be me.
This.... Has now made my year! I'm there! One, I'v been needing to ride The SWARM for ages! And two this sounds amaing! And three I can't count high enough for reasons for me to be coming for sure!
Dudey? Dudey. Me and the other broniez are trying to figure something out and right now, it's likely that we'll be taking a minibus. Your parents may only know that we're going to Thorpe, and the Pizza battle? That kinda isn't happening now unfortunately... I'll try ta sort out something with mah broniez if I can. You'll have to save up though because you'll have to pay for the tickets and such. In the meantime, I remember seeing you and another guy about but never really spoke to ya, we should meet up some time and actually talk XD Dudey (I'm using that word so much now), I will see you there! It's gonna be. SO AWESOME. /)*3*(\
Alright, we should arrange that. Maybe if we become good friends I can convince my mum it's a party. :3 I'm free most days (but you probably will not be able to meet me this week because I am in Swindon every day until about 6pm or later due to Work Exp). Maybe on Saturday?
Hey everypony! I just found this thread, and you can count me in! The only thing that worries me a little is the inactivity of the Facebook page and this thread. Is this event still going on? If so, Can I have some extra details please? What time should I get to Thorpe Park for? When is it? Stuff like that.
Hey Josh! I'd love ta see you there!! It'll be on the 15th of August, and you should try and get there for 10 AM, pwease, which'll be the time we meet- I believe you can arrive any time, but I have no idea how you'd find us.. I think we're meeting outside the Swarm, but I'm unsure...
Okie dokie! I've never been to Thorpe Park before, so I might have trouble finding my way around. Will there be any signs to say that it's a Brony meeting? Like a poster or a balloon or something? Also, I am a closet Brony, so getting to this event might be a little difficult. I told my parents I was gonna go up there with my friends. Hopefully that should be good enough to tide them over. Now all I've got to do is figure out transport...sometimes I hate being a closet Brony... Also, I was wondering if we could change the meetup time to something like 11am or 12? According to Google Maps, it's an approx 3hour journey on public transport (I'm using public transport to avoid my parents finding out. Like I said above, I am a closet brony). So if I were to get there by 10, I'd have to leave by 7. Not only is that inconvenient, but that is also during peak times (rush hour. Not to mention the Olympics), so train and bus prices double. Unless we change the times, I might not be able to afford to come. So I'm gonna put the plea out. Whoever is going and is travelling through Bedforshire/anywhere near, would you be kind enough to offer a lift? Either that or could you sort a minibus out or something?
Never been to Thorpe Park, Josh? It's awesome, so look forward to it. :3 I'm trying to convince my parents to go, but they're not sure, damn. I got the money and everything, but for some reason they are getting all protective on me. x_x I think Dodo is arranging a minibus, but I'm unsure if he'll be able to take you too, so you'll have to speak to him.
Now I play the perswading game... Should be easy with my mum. I have to money and all, but it's the getting there that will be tough. Hummm. This will take alittle time. But when it actualy comes to Thorpe Park. I'v been there alot, we have to ride Stealth!!! And Saw! And all of them! /)*3*(\ OhmygoshOhmygoshOhmygoshOhmygosh!
Saw is amazing! I went on the ride and in the maze. Just a shame the maze was closed really, the props and everything were just perfect! I think that SWARM ride is open too, haven't been on that! Stealth baffles me though, the ride itself lasts 15 seconds per ride, with loads of seats. Why do the queues move so slow? xD But yeah, I really hope I get to go, it's going to be SO AWESOME!
