Hi Everyone! Following the astounding success of the Beatle Forum's London Weekend earlier this year – I was wondering if you fancied doing it next year, again sort of January/February time (when London is sometimes cheap...ish!). Again, the plan would be to meet up for a few drinks in London on the Friday, then do something Beatley on Saturday (maybe a Beatle walking tour or something - open to any suggestions!!) and in the evening we could find a cool bar round Camden way (if there are no Beatle tribute bands playing locally)! I just thought I’d gauge interest first though to get an idea of numbers, so before we go any further, who’s up for a 2 night London trip in Jan/Feb 2015? AL

I like London, I like the Beatles, I also like Sherlock Holmes, and it is for those reasons that I'm in!!!

We'll have to sort this out ASAP so you can take advantage of the cheap Virgin fares!

Very tempting to come over, I must say. And to meet up with you guys. But indeed, to sort this out ASAP is necessary to see if it's all possible.

Would be brilliant if you can come! Could those interested parties please let me know what weekends you are free in January-February? AL

Hi Everyone! If you're up for this, can you let me know ASAP what weekends you're free in Jan, Feb and (at a push) March? If anyone has any queries about the London trip, please give me a shout! AL

Is Liverpool another option?
So far I'm not available in the weekend of January 17 and towards the end of February (28th).

You must have read my mind Cor! I'll ask the London-based guys if Liverpool is doable for them

OK - I need to kickstart this idea again! Judging by everyone's comments it sounds like we may have more takers for a Liverpool-based meet up. So with that in mind, could you let me know what weekends you're free in February, March and April? AL

Who's enlisted?? Shame, I was looking forward to a London trip!! Jon and Cor said they'd be ok for Liverpool but not London, sadly. Maybe wait until we find out who's definitely up for the weekend though before we decide where to go though? Perhaps we can alternate years? Interested so far are: Si Gaz John Cor Mike Dave Nikki Claire and Me!

Bobber and Mr Kite - are you still only able to make it to Liverpool (rather than London)? Interested in doing a weekend? If so, could you please let me know what weekends you're free in March and April? Cheers, AL

Bobber and Mr Kite - are you still only able to make it to Liverpool (rather than London)? Interested in doing a weekend? If so, could you please let me know what weekends you're free in March and April? Cheers, AL Sorry I can`t really afford it . I don`t wanna go on how I`m trying to save up for Canada and I have just booked 11 days in Menorca and I must have about 10 gigs I wan`t to go to this year so far ! and them boy`s from Canada (Rush) are about throw another one at me and I also would be having Liverpool in August and I do have to go out , I can`t stay in for more than a week . But I must confess something . I have never done Abbey Rd . I know ! It is on my bucket list , I just never got round to it and it is bleeding expensive down your end ( No pun intended) Hankies at the ready . I`m only a poor factory lad and we don`t get great wages up here and the hours are long and the Holidays are short . I did`nt take much interest at skool and I was happy just wait for Tommy Doc come round me house and sign me up for Utd and by the time I was 16 I discovered Rock and then I wanted to join a band and be a Rock star but I first had to get a job to buy a guitar and by the time I could afford one I had found out about Beer , Girls and Gigs and before I knew it I was too old to be a Winger , a Rocker and most importantly working in a place where you got pay rises , pensions and decent tea brakes . So , no sorry I can`t make London . Liverpool on the other hand is only down the road .
