---We will also being doing out own version of the popular BBC Radio 4 quiz panel show Just a Minute! However, this will have a pony theme to it.Incase you are unsure of what Just a Minute actually is, heres a video example from the show when, taken from the first episode of it's BBC Two speical edtion, when it was broadcast on TV for two weeks:
We are currently looking for panelist's for the show, so if you are interested, then ask us in the email addresses below.
The function room is booked from Noon to 10pm, so the
initial meet up time is at
10:30am and the meet up point is at the same place as last time; the Livingstone monument right next to the Scot monument (pictures follow if unsure of location).

The Meet:
Sandy (WhatWhat) will wait at the Scott Monument for a total of
30 minutes for everyone to gather. Then he will walk you all to the Meadows Bar along on Buccleuch Street. It’s about a 15 minute walk. Where Quill of Manehattan and Soundcheck will have everything set up.
Keep checking back for anything new involving the meet up. If anyone else has ideas they would like to contribute, please
contact me at
sandy.mccunn@hotmail.co.uk or the co-organiser at

Skype username ‘IForgetHowToRead’ (yes its real).
As we get closer to the date, more updates will be posted here, so check back often for the latest information on the meet.
On more thing, a couple of important information here:---Please
do not bring your own alcohol. Brining alcohol into a licenced bar is
aginst the law.
--We have not set an age limit and although under 18s are allowed in the fuction room, they are
not allowed in the bar. To be on the safe side, if you are over 18 but don't look it, bring your ID (such as British (or your own nation's passport if your not British) to prove you are over 18.)
(Information for people who are not British but attending the meet: The legal age to drink alcohol in Scotland is 18 and the legal age to smoke tobaco is 16. Under 18s are not allowed in bars (the function room is alright, though.)).---Brining your own food is allowed, but it can only be consumed after 18:00. This is when the Meadow's Bar kicthen closes. Before 18:00, we are encouraged to buy food from the bar.
To recap:
Arrive at Scott Monument at 10:30am.
The group will then walk to the Meadows Bar.
Thanks and We hope to see you at the meet up on the 14th of July!
