Re: [backstage] BBC Backstage London Christmas Bash

2006-11-01 Thread Robert Kerry

Hi Ian,

Thanks for your reply and sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

We would love to have LondonSEO associated with the Christmas event
and more then happy to help the organisers in anyway possible.

LondonSEO events usually have a sponsor who picks up the bar tab,
although I'm not sure if I can find a sponsor large enough to cover a
300 person tab though. I'll certainely look into it though.

Anything else, just ask. :o)

Fancy doing a joint announcement on each of our sites about this?


Cheers,

Rob

Thank you, we are certainly proud of what were doing.

 Question 1: Am I invited?
Everyone is invited :) as long as you get your name on the sign up page
(yet to be announced)
 Question 2: Do you all work for the beeb?  My sister used to work
 there if that qualifies me?
Its a BBC Backstage event, with our arms open to most of the communities
in and around London. So think of it as a shared Christmas event for the
developer/design/new media community in London.
You don't need to work or be involved in the BBC to come along. I know
some of the guys from Yahoo and Microsoft are coming along.
 Question 3: I'm used to unlimited free pints of Guinness at geek
 events now, after being pampered by the search engines. Any chance of
 free pints here?
Ummm no - unless we get enough sponsors to pay for free Guinness. :)

 By the way, make sure you pop along to one of our LondonSEO
 (http://londonseo.org) meet-ups if you're interested in Search Engine
 Optimisation or drinking with fellow geeks. In fact maybe we should
 join you christmas geek alliance. Last month we peaked at 30 people
 attending though so don't want to crowd people.
Well I'm still interested in having a couple more communities involved,
so if your interested do drop me a email. But there's nothing stopping
you and your community of seo geeks from just coming along on the 9th
Dec. You just can't have a say in how the night is run and who will
speak etc. :)

Cheers

Ian on holiday ;)

[backstage] BBC Backstage London Christmas Bash : Sat 9th Dec

2006-10-24 Thread Ian Forrester
Hi All,

What happened after we mentioned the Christmas party on the list a while ago?

Well we found a venue : The Cuban Near Moorgate Station in London. Set a date : 
Saturday 9th December. And got in touch with other communities and groups to 
make it a real community driven event.

If you can keep Saturday 9th Dec free in your calendars that would be great, if 
not we hope to see you on the 6th Nov or next year sometime.

We will announce how to get tickets in the near future, till then here's some 
more info...
