I'd say central Europe is the best meeting point for oll of us. That way everyone only has to fly half across the world. My suggestion is Germany. images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

It'd be great if it did happen but any overseas flight is not possible for me this year. Something about money not growing on trees... images/smilies/sad.gif

But within driving distance ( and I can drive twenty hours straight, sleep four and then keep going on ), I'm there ! images/smilies/tongue.gif

That would be cool, especially because by then I should have a real job that pays enough to be able to travel.
