Hi everyone
 
A few people have suggested meeting mid-week I'm away until 29th March, can I suggest we meet Monday 30th March 7.30pm in Reliance? ( North Street - near Leeds College Building). It's quite a nice bar and pretty quiet on a Monday. See how many people turn up? Let me know if you can make it. I'll be wearing a red carnation!
 
Dave

Yeah I know. I attend Manchester Biphoria which gets about 20 people a month. Thats held in the LGBT building but I understand The Leeds LGBT is down a dark alley? What do you guys think Pub for less formal or LGBT building for more structured meeting. I'm sure we could get funding for room rental. Heather

Could you please reply if you would be interested in meeting in Leeds on the
Monday evening of 23rd March. I think the other Saturday meetings failed because
they were held in quite public locations. If anyone has any sugestions for a
location which people would be at ease with attending. I tried a post similar to
this before but got no replies but with the recent interestfrom new members I
will try again.

If you are still interested in being a member but cannot attend on this date
please reply with your views.

Dave

May I suggest having a social in the evening at a venue in leeds in nxt few wks? This could help kick start  things off again.
 
From experience if we go to the events or talk to prospective members and the group isn't already regularly meeting then people will be reluctant to come along.
 
If members want to meet up for a social i dont mind suggesting a suitable venue, Michael can u get back 2 me.

The group is not currently meeting due to low numbers attending when
we used to meet on a Saturday PM in Leeds.

The plan is to put the group on hold for a while and have another try
later on his year in the late summer possibly.

There are already Pride events being planned in Huddersfield in July,
Halifax in June and Bradford in May at which we can get people
interested in coming along.

Any comments on this plan?

Saturday meetings have not been much of a success since we changed
them from weekdays back in spring//summer 2008. With only 3 of us
turning up regularly a decision has to be made whether to continue
with them or not for the near future.

I'm proposing that monthly meetings are put on hold until later this
year. When we can have a chance and some time and space to think about
what we can do to improve the attendance.

I know some of you prefer weekdays evenings over weekends but they
weren't much more successful back then either, so we are at a loss to
know what to do at present

If anyone has any comments on what we can do to improve this
situation, then don't hesistate to get in touch.

I'll be posting stuff of interest on here regularly so you can all
keep in touch with what is going on.

Michael and people
 
Sorry I got it into my head you meet at 1, but if it's 2 I won't be able to come at all this time as it coincides with another meeting I've arranged to attend.
 
Are the meetings always the first Saturday afternoon of the month?
 
Do people ever meet at other times/places now?  I'd be interested but I just can't manage it on Saturday.  I'm back to feeling more bi than gay again - I think I'll always move about quite a bit along the spectrum.
 
I'm really glad you're managing to keep things going.  All the best to everyone, even though I probably haven't met you yet.
Clive

It is open to all members Michael, initially just to meet up for
discussion, if there are enough people interested. There may be
others like myself who find it difficult to attend Saturday meetings
although I will probably be there at the next meeting.

Yes D we have!

The fet scene is just as you say but only for a small percentage of
bi's as a whole as you would witness as any BiCon ball (a very crude
view of bi fetishism). We went to the recent Leeds Festival of Erotica
ball, which whilst not strictly fetish did have some excellent stage acts!
