Hello,

tldr; Beer at Leaf on Bold St, Thursday 6th around 6.30/7.00

The next Liverpool meeting is likely to be held in the ADA ( http://www.liverpool-ada.co.uk/ ) and in order to get some publicity within the University arranged, we need to come up with a name as a matter of priority. As naming is also a long-term issue it was agreed at the last meeting that the absolute best way to come up with a name is with the aid of alcohol.

To this end we'd like to organise a meetup at Leaf on Bold St, Thursday around 6.30/7.00 to drink alcohol and come up with a name.  As usual everyone and anyone is welcome, and I'd appreciate it if you could post to the list if you were planning to come along so we can reserve a table with enough chairs for everyone.

Thanks.

Ross

I'll be there.

As it'll be easier to come up with a name by whittling down from too
many options than too few, if anyone isn't going to make it, or just has
a good idea beforehand, feel free to post suggestions in this thread too :-)

Cheers,

Adrian.

At the last meeting I took down a list of words that might relate to this that we might want to use. It was just a general brainstorm so we ended up with quite a big list of random things but hopefully there'll be something in there to inspire us. I've put the list on as a Google Docs so that anyone can take a look and add to it. Please don't remove any words but feel free to add any you think we missed.

Ace, I'll be there. (Leaning towards the 7.00 end of the scale due to
train timetables)

Should be there 7-7.30, work and health permitting. Will we be seeing
the list of words we came up with last meeting before Thursday, or
should we come prepared with some foreign-language dictionaries? :)

Not going to be able to make tonight's gathering, double booked with a friend who's only in town tonight. 

May well catch up with everyone later in the evening but go ahead and pick a good name without me. (No pressure)

Sadly I'm having difficulty shaking off this cold, so I'm going to play it safe for everyone, and stay home :(
