    I think geography seriously decreases the chances of my ever meeting up with any BAUTers, but if anybody is going to visit the Scottish Highlands then give me a shout!

    I get up to Scotland working quite a lot. Usualy in and around Glasgow or Edinburgh but also up to Inverness a few times a year.

    I'll be giving some talks at the New England Fan Experience convention the weekend of November 13-15. Any BAUTers should feel free to introduce themselves. And if anyone who's closer to Boston than my friends in Concord (MA) wants to put me up for a night, let me know.
    Everything I need to know I learned through Googling.

    Well I am heading over to Denmark in 2 weeks time (15th March), if there is anyone out there who wants to meet up and say hi to me.

    Just to specify it a bit more geographically, Chrissy will be staying at my place in Roskilde so meeting will be best in Roskilde or Copenhagen.

    Well, I know of seven here in Colorado, one with whom I've had breakfast, another few an hour away... If we have this density, I'm sure there are others in your neck of the woods!

    but if anybody is going to visit the Scottish Highlands then give me a shout!
    If I ever make it back across the pond, I may just do that. I've been told I'm "an interesting conversationalist." I think that means I ask a lot of questions and respond with similar experiences. I dunno...

    Gah.. Being married and having a family sure has its positive sides, but sometimes I do miss the option of just packing a bag and going somewhere, to meet some folks (whose online appearance) I like. Hope you guys have a great time!

    Yes I am here, I got into Copenhagen on time...well a bit earlier than it was supposed to be in.
    I have been a bit poorly with some nasty migraines that would floor an elephant. I have taken a few pictures already from a cathedral, but unfortunately I can't upload any as I didn't bring my USB cable
    I am chillin' out at the moment and now and then still killing those spammers.

    Me too BC, they have just started with more severity than I have ever had in my life, just exploding into a full blown migraine. Poor Henrik has been so good and nursing me, a cold cloth for my head and a bowl for the vomit, yup a pleasurable thing I have to put up with along with a throbbing brain. I just want to die as the pain takes so long to go and I still have the lingering ache from the previous migraine.

    You're a star Henrik thank you.

    I will happily show the city of Vancouver BC Canada to any travelling Bautsters who can afford lunch.

    Surely the odds are in favour of the south-east Of England. London is a place with plenty of options fr venues. Even for those elsewhere in these Isles travel is cheap.

    Going to the north of England in two weeks, staying for 2½ weeks. I already have plans for the 2nd to 9th (travelling the length of Hadrian's and the Antonine walls), but the start of the following week should be free to meet up or go see things.

    Don't forget your hiking boots and camera Henrik, there are going to be places of interest you might like to see while we are up there.

    My husband and I might be visiting San Diego, CA in middle of September. Are there any BAUTers in the area?

    I'd hoped to see the Royal Shakespeare Company at the Royal Theater but apparently it's closed for the summer while I'm there.

    I'm going to be in Southeastern Maine (Kenebunk area, within driving distance from Boston) from the 13 to 18 of Aug. The Washington DC area from the 19 to the 23 of Aug. I will be coming down the Blue Ridge Parkway and The Tail of the Dragon on the way to Chattanooga during 24-27 Aug. After Chattanooga, we're heading home through Georgia and Florida to Sarasota. The wife and I are taking a motorcycle trip for one, to see our daughter, who is currently in Maine doing Summer Stock Theatre and two: our annual motorcycle trip. If there are any BAUTees in those area and want to get together, let me know. I'm willing to spend an extra day on the Parkway if there are any BAUTees along or near the route.

    I'm in the DC area. Remind me closer to the date, and maybe we can get together. If you like, I might be able to give you an insider's tour of Goddard.

    Oh yes indeed. I was wary of including that for fear of it coming out creepy. Travel safe and have a blast!
