Canadian Barrow Downers - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Roadtrip!!!

Just as a side thought, I should be able to accomodate some people at my place this May (I think the 25th or so) but I don't really know you guys and I'm not sure I'd be fine with having a bunch of strangers over at my place... even if it is tolkien loving strangers

I guess Canada is just too big to have a "canadian barrowdowner meeting" eh?

hmmm, it doesn't have to be a big personal meeting, we could work out a cyber-meeting on some chatroom?

That'd be easier to accomplish... if anyone knows how MIRC works, we could even get a barrow-downs server I think =P but it'd work as slowly as a cyber-turtle so we might as well use an existing server.

Doesn't the BD have a chat?

Gil-Galad · 01-19-2006, 01:12 PM

it does, but some non downers use it

Wow...we have our own thread?! This is too sweet. I'm from Alberta by the way in case Gil-Galad hasn't mentioned it yet. Not that I know him face to face, but I do know what his face looks like.

It would be lovely to try and have a convention, I think we'll need more people though. Enough that an actual reasonable number will attend, but we Canadians are a shy lot so maybe I'm shooting high.

Start saving up kiddies and maybe in few years our dreams will come true.

I would start saving, but I have band trips to save for not to mention college or university. I would love to meet you all face to face, but I think a Cyber-chat would be just as fun.

A convention in Winterpeg!! then we can all dress up like Aragorns and Eowyns.. with the odd Legolas or Gimli. I've been growing my "Aragorn-hair" and now I'm even growing my "Aragorn beard" (or in other words, I have long hair and now I got lazy and I'm not shaving)

Yet a chat would be fun... if everyone has mIRC (which I think is probably the best program for chatting) we could meet somewhere some day... I should be more or less available next weekend (but take into account that I will NOT be available during the Superbowl)
