Well, not only has the year started with a fantastic covering of snow, but another fantastic bloggers meetup. The New Year cheer was attended by over 50 LBM group members with plenty of new faces along with a handful of regulars. Thanks to everyone who came along and also to Tony Scott for his intro to Twestival.

The next meetup will be on Tueday 24th February and is being supported by our good friends from Bacardi Breezer. Not only is Bacardi going to be buying everyone a drink or two, they’re also running a fantastic competition to win vouchers for department store House of Fraser. How can I win these vouchers I hear you say... it’s all explained on the blog.

The venue has been finalised and as always it's in zone 1 and within easy reach of a tube station. We also now have a guest speaker in Simone Brummelhuis the founder of The Next Women blog.

Thanks and see you all on the 24th.

Andy

PS if you decide not to attend, please change your RSVP to 'No' to open your place up for others on the waiting list!!

    As you can see I had fun with a wide-angle lens. As well as talking to lots of people, though it was rather noisy. Thanks too to Bacardi.

    was a nice event even though the temperature (sauna vs antartica) & acoustics weren't perfect..

    Looking forward to this Blogger Meetup - it's been a while since i was last able to attend one...

Who attended?

  • 45 attendees
    •  Lots of friendly, approachable people. Even for a LBM first-timer like me, it was easy to find interesting people to talk to. Didn't realise there was going to be a speaker, but what she had to talk about was interesting.

       I'm a wine man, so I must admit I didn't try this sponsor's drinks - terrible of me I know, but I'm a bit of an old dog, and this is not a trick I particularly wanted to learn. 
    •  Bit of a boiling squeeze, fitting so many of us into the backroom of Verve, especially as we're all fully paid-up hot air generators. Nevertheless, met lots of lovely people and it was hard to leave the conversation when I had to go. Thanks Andy, Bacardi Breezer, The Next Women, etc.

       Very enjoyable as per usual! I am a happy bunny :) 
    •  One of the busiest #LBMs yet! Really enjoyed the talk, the drinks, the conversation and meeting new bloggers. Thanks to Bacardi too. 
    •  Great meetup, though maybe the place was a bit too small for all the people, though at the end it thinned out. Good to meet up with some people I met last time as well as some new one. Of course, winning did not detract from the experience ;) 
    •  good turn out. lots of catching up. fun night out. 
    •  Great atmosphere and free drinks - woo! 
    •  Good chats with interesting people :)

       I had a really good night! It was great to meet loads of people old and new and the guys from Barcardi we're lovely! 
    •  Another tremendous time. The venue was OK, but a bit crowded and soulless. Got to thank Bacardi for providing so generously, though I'm not sure I'll be switching from wine any time soon.

       Nice of Bacardi to sponsor and good that they put some money behind the bar for drinks other than the free Bacardi. 
    •  Great gathering; bravo to Andy for cool organizing and much thanks to Bacardi Breezer for the drinks and free gifts.
