Sub's Jakarta would be nice, any 'library-anywhere-in-the world' would be nice, Czech Republic would be nice, Tibet would be nice, Antartica would be nice, and considering the intellectual stability of some of the participants perhaps we should go camping, stay away from major population centres...............or is it just me I should worry about?..............
Ditto to MOno's literary-themed meeting point.........
Wow!!! Tooo sweet!! I just googled a partial list of those buried in this cemetery in Paris......HOly S***!!!!! Talk about your literary-themed site!!!!Originally Posted by poehee99

OH, where's the Queen, there's lotsa horses! If I'm allowed to take a horse over to Basil's abbey... I'd be torn between the two of the places...
Scher, can I take a horse over at your place?
I have a plan: attack!

No camping please...I don't like insects, I don't like tents much and despite not being social I need something vaguely resemblant to a city...more than 48 hours in a place where nature rules, no houses, no pollution, no streets causes troubles to MY stability.Originally Posted by baddad
Hey! The compromise: any Northern Italian city on the week of the 15th August: city-like, but EMPTY. Only troubles: hellish temperatures, tropical humidity, and thousands of (burnt and halfnaked) German and Japanese (unburnable and unnakedable...invulnerable) tourists ...

Sub's Jakarta would be nice
Yes..yes...I'll be very honoured...And believe me, I'll make a very warm and informative guide ...If the price is right, of course ..{J/K]
What.? What are we going to have there...?? What do you mean younger? 16?? Oh our 16 yo members are stronger than you think..Uh....yeah.....provisio....: Not MY house. It would be waaayyyy too much fun, and I'm not sure this younger crowd could handle that!

Not Italy if the weather's gonna be like that, Koa!! A BIIIG no! Anything above 25°C is too hot for my liking.

TOO CROWDED! Good point
btw, don't think I didn't see your piggyback comment ... actually it would be worth 'conveniently forgetting' to get a horse somewhere just because of that
