No, you will both report to the galley, where you will eat cookie's so very German attempt at spaghetti. If that doesn't do the trick, then a transfer to Detroit seems to be in order.

That's the point, I think. Well, I don't think, but that's another topic altogether.

On the other hand, how can anyone hate one of the best foods ever created? More for me, I guess.

Yes that was a good time.

the whole bunch was really friendly. Officially, ole McBee was the first subsim member i ever met.

He greeted me at the door of Neal's Subsim HQ and introduced me to Neal who immediately set out to making me a pancake breakfast.

and who could forget Steve and Jim

Being an international forum, it is difficult to coordinate events, it is even more difficult to coordinate them by region and do so fairly.

Technically if we had a Subsim Northeast, southeast etc for the US we would theoretically have to do the same for many other countries as well.

Perhaps a "Subsim Regional Meets" sub forum with sticky threads for each region? but then again that would likely require a lot of thread editing as new dates and destinations were selected.

EDIT:

is it just me or does this seem more of a General Topics appropriate thread?

A great Meet John and a surefire way of cementing friendships in person

I'm hoping there will be a London or UK based one in the future because Steve will be my guest of honour

I sometimes feel like a fraudster because I've spoken to Neal on numerous occasions regarding a London or UK Meet and I know how hard and time consuming a task organising an event like this is but Neal is understandably very busy these days and I'm also unable to do much because of other commitments.

There shouldn't be major obstacles in a group of Brits forming a small action group and working on an itinerary a year in advance of an event.

Hopefully one day.

...don't forget. next month in Liverpool the Battle for the Atlantic Commemoration starts with all sorts of events taking place. I haven't seen the itinerary but when I find out stuff ill post it here on Subsim. I believe there'll be an aircraft carrier parked up?

Jimbuna · 04-15-13, 04:45 PM

Well it probably won't be a RN one

I wish I could have made it to one of the past get togethers. Like I said I was serving in Iraq for 42 months during that time period and I wasnt able to really pay attention to the forum. I really didnt get into Subsim until after I stopped deploying. I will be able to pay more attention now though so if one is planned and Its not to far away I will bring the family and make a trip of it.

J0313 · 04-17-13, 09:17 PM

Is it me or does this forum seem clickish.
