Beers, WordPress & Woo in London?

35

by Adii Rockstar in Interactive

The exciting news is that the whole WooTeam will be in the UK (London & Newcastle to be precise) in early June, where we’ll meet up, spend some time chilling and amongst other things, attend DIBI. The most exciting part of this is, that this will be the first time in our 3-odd years of existence that the whole WooTeam (all 10 of us!) will be able to share a couple of beers together. Fun times ahead indeed.

So we were thinking about extending these fun times to the UK-based members of the WooCommunity that perhaps wanted to share an evening of beers, WordPress & Woo with all of us… The basic idea would be to organize a little venue for a get-together on one of the evenings that we are in London and then we’d open it up to anyone that wanted to hang with us, have a couple of beers and talk WP & Woo for a couple of hours.

What do you think? If you’re in London (or the rest of the UK if you’re willing to travel a little further), would you be interested in a little get-together like this?

Share your thoughts in the comments. This is only an idea at present and we’re just trying to gauge the interest before we move over to actually organizing something like this.

    If you guys could make a beer blog / brewery / brewing Woo Theme, that would be AMAZING!

      Do you happen to own a brewery?

      I think any theme could be turned into a beer blog, but I’m curious about a brewery site. Potentially a business theme would work for that yeah, or does it need unique features? :)

    Guys would love to buy you a beer in my home town in return for your innermost woosecrets of success…
    Can even recommend a location if that would help.
    Keep me posted.

    Yes, UK meet is great.
    Decision will obviously be based on numbers I guess. Lots of places with rooms in the city but if you end up with 100 people will need to rethink! I can throw in some ideas.
    Why not some kind of doodle thing to get people to commit to a couple of dates?

    I’ll be at DIBI, and by then I’ll be living in London – a double meet up, score!

    Keep us posted about when you’ll be in London, count me in! :)

    I’m not sure if I’ll be going to the DIBI conference yet, but if you guys are going to be in London then I’ll definitely try and get to wherever you’ll be for a beer! Can’t wait!

    Why is it that whenever anything happens in the UK I am somewhere else?

    Well, have fun!
