Not sure if I missed the announcement or there just hasn't been one yet.
I assume that by the 2x2 rules, there should be a Christmas do on 12 December which is less than a month away. Am I right? Was there an announcement?

Hi Andrew,

I think so, and not yet.
Thank you for reminding us.
Peter usually handles the 2x2 meets, and combining a Chrissie meet with the 2x2 would be an excellent idea.
Peter?

Yes there will be a 2x2 meet on December 12 - just scoping out where to go and being mindful of the heat. And I've been $#%!@ busy in my day job!

What about your night job Peter?
I'd be keen for this 2x2 meet and if it doesn't end too late, I will be able to make it.
Bel and I are off to Greenday that evening/night.

I can't confirm without having a confirmed date.
Could the organisers please confirm this date?

AFAICT, the date is confirmed - it's a 2x2 date - but the activities are not yet set down.
Peter?

So I guess the answer to my original question is "No". There is no DSLRUsers Christmas do as such. Just the regular 2x2 event.

I was looking forward to a xmas meet this year, it has been awhile since we have had a big get-together. Unfortunately I cant make the 2x2 as I will be slaving away all day at my retail job.

How about this...
pick a location with a BBQ, bring 15kg of meat + 10 cartons of beer plus cask wine for the classy people among us and setup camp for a good evening/night...
cheap and relatively easy...

Dumb question. How many more actually on the walk to the station?
