Myself and a good friend @anjeebaby have been discussing an idea which I hope people may embrace.

What started off as a small visit to London in October has become what I can only call the “Across the water tweetup”. After a lengthy discussion of 3 or 4 tweets to each other we decided that it might be a great idea to try and organise an event in London where Irish tweeters and English tweeters can finally meet each other face to face.

The connection between Ireland and England on twitter is huge and I know a lot of us are following people and been followed from across the water.

What we are proposing is this, one Saturday night in London on the weekend of the 14th of November with a venue still to be decided , obviously for any Irish travelling we should make a weekend of it, possibly by having a photowalk or something even on one of the days. If the uptake on this is good well then the “Across the water tweetup” can move to Ireland the next time and so on.

So what do you think? depending on the interest shown we will look into organising a hotel to have the meetup happen in, and check out prices for accomodation etc. Also if it gets to big and we need a conference centre or something (hehe) a fee will have to be charged, but hopefully it wont come to that.

I would also like to add that you do not need to be Irish or English to come along if you can make it from other countries please do.

We also have a twitter account set up for all the updates or to answer any questions you may have, but please get the word out there tweet about this and link to this site as much as you can, do what ever is necessary to get the message out to people.

As I say its an idea that I truly believe can run, please let me know via the comments what you think and if you are interested in coming so we can get an idea of numbers.

Thanks in advance

John
