[Jayne]

Especially with attendees flying in from Estonia, Latvia, Georgia, Portugal, the US, and elsewhere.

Speak to my agent first

He says you've got nothing on

Gary, why are you naked?

. . . and if no-one pays for their place I could kosh em after the event.

Nic :wink:

I'm up for a bit of a koshing before the event, if you don't mind :wink: :wink:
Cheers, N

Nigel to kosh you severely would be my pleasure! Although I won't be wearing a Tesco uniform so thats part of your fantasy out of the window.

There's going to be a lot of money changing hands - need any bookkeeping software? : )

Seriouslyt though - it's a good idea, but it'd be an expensive excuse to get togheter and partaaay. I think the organisers would lose a bundle.

Why not just have a get together with gimmicky/fun awards and not take it at all seriously? There are too many proper awards going on. We could have a parody awards thingiemajig and it could atleast be done on the cheap and Ozzy wouldn't need to get a 5th mortgage.

A client of mine runs the Urban Music Awards (yes, the one where people keep getting shot) and he had to sell his London flat to get it up and running.

 

[Jayne]

Ozzy has already mentioned about a UKBF get together, if we have awards we get two get togethers... hence two new frocks :lol:

Jayne

 

[clairemackaness]

Will someone please arrange something? Get together, networking event, awards ceremony who cares, but it would be good to all get together.

 

[Jayne]

Yer! Who's coming to West Yorkshire, I've heard Castleford has plenty to do :lol:

Jayne

 

[MarkPearson]

If we all do something the big question is where will it be?

Dart in the map time?

 

[VeryMark]

Ozzy mentioned having an event around Easter in Northamptonshire.

If this is still on, I'd be happy to organise an event to tie in with an SME business festival I'm doing in October in Worcestershire.

 

[Cornish Steve]

If this becomes something real, it would help me a lot if it's held near an international airport. Manchester would probably be good because it's on the motorway; Gatwick is too remote. I vote for the original suggestion of September.

 

[YEM]

Freecyber could do an article in his mag, I for one wouldn't want to look to 'rough around the edges' as Nigel stated once :twisted: Nic :wink:

Business awards could feature in YEM!!!!

 

[Mac Yeti]

We should get one of those member maps, like they have here

[webit]

This is a nice one from the StatCounter forum I'm a member of.

Birmingham: M6/Airport/Railway?

If the costs are prohibitive then it may be worthwhile going down the route that Duane mentioned and just have some sort of informal get together with a light-hearted award ceremony.

Provided that the numbers are high enough, we could book a venue and then we all pay for the tickets to cover the costs. I don't want anyone to be out of pocket on this.

Then we just narrow the categories down to no more than ten and let the forum members vote for the winners. Dead easy.

Each category can be 'sponsored' by a forum member, so we can have the Business of the Year Award, sponsored by Nigel and the winner gets a free fence post and some nails

I like the map idea Jilly

Jonathan could do prize! If you won, he promises to rattle on in your lug all night in another language :lol:

Think i'll offer a pencil

Jayne

 

[multilingual]

I could offer a free website translation or something similar.

I don't think I will be rattling on all night in another language though, my wife is the linguist, I just sort out the business side of things so that she is free to look after the actual translations.

Ok by me, but I think some may prefer screws :wink:

Jayne,

Can't you get Mark to bake some cakes in the shape of an oscar?

Edible awards



JB

 

[Jayne]

But we will not have a bakery after Friday :lol: (I think?)

I suppose I could russle some up at home

Jayne

 

[dcraigdc]

Edible awards sounds like a great idea, although I have a feeling that by the time the awards were announced, we wouldn't have many trophies left....

Map idea is good. From the sounds of it, you are going to make me leave the comforts of inside the M25! Unthinkable!
