Well, we had our Meet, even if we didn't all manage to get together.
First of all a big thank to to anniedwyer84 for starting the ball rolling,and beginning the organization. I hope your thesis goes well, and that you'll meet us at the next one.
- myluck! and I had dinner on Friday night, and chatted for ages.
- On Saturday at Back to our Past in the RDS, I met Purpeller and annieoburns, and PastMagic bumped into us, and we yarned for ages over coffee. We failed to link up with DympJoyce who was there ... maybe others were too ..
annieoburns and I hoped to meet again that evening, but that didn't work out.
Here's a few recommendations for whoever organizes the next Meet!
1. I should have given everyone my mobile number.
2. maybe I should have been a bit more precise about meeting places.
3. I probably should have had a big notice fixed to a pole (you know, like the tour guides who hold up their big umbrellas, followed by a gaggle of tourists) ... not that Rootschatters are EVER a gaggle ...?
I really enjoyed my weekend - thanks for the company, and the interesting anecdotes - I now feel most of my ancestors were quite normal people! (joking, partly)
regards eadaoin
