Meet-Up! (UK)

[Liz-chan]

Hey guys,

Some of us from the Scottish thread created a 'JETs' group! We only have a few members atm though. It's not specifically a Scottish group though so we could make it a UK JETs group!


EDIT: Just noticed a UK group has been set up... Sorry I didn't get here in time! You're all still welcome to join though. Add me if you'd like

EDIT no 2: Tried to search for the new UK group and no luck unfortunately...

[Risu]

Can't see this either :s

Can't see this either :s

Add Heenali (gladrags) or any of us on facebook and we'll add you to the group. It would help though if it could be made into a public group

hey guys! I'd really love to be able to come to some sort of meet-up before the pre-departure orientation, but unfortunately I think I'm a little too north-east for anything planned so far. I'd still love to get to know people before we leave, though, just to make it a little less daunting. My full name is kind of nondescript (Laura Smith) but I'm the one with the University of Dundee as my network. I'll probably add some of the people who have already left their information, so just a head's up!

[Rosieee]

Oooh a UK JET Facebook group!! I can't find it either so I hope you don't mind if I go on a hunt to find you all~
My name's Rosie Monsoon Lawrence on Facebook (probably the only one XD) if anyone I can't find wants to add me

[rebeljonny]

I've just added a few of you on Facebook (I'm Jonathan Wheatcroft!) so please accept

[Trudi]

I'll be back in Newcastle from 7th July, and I suggested to the Scots that we have a meet-up/last minute shopping day in Newcastle at some point before we fly out!

[gladrags]

ok.. haha so it might help if i make the group public apparently...

edit: its now public!!! I also added the meet up as an event. wow, really getting into the whole facebook group thing- thats the first event I've created!

[jmullins]

I joined the Facebook group. Feel free to add me and all that jazz.

Well, I requested to join...

Is there any way I can change the settings to let people join without having to request and then waiting to be accepted?

[mrkrabs]

I'm a certain Mr Owen in the group. Feel free to add me.

[Steff]

Really sorry I haven't said hello on here properly yet. Congrats to the shortlisters and ALTs.

I've joined the group - I'm Steffan Griffiths. Feel free to add.

The meet-up sounds great. I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it though, being in Swansea.

[fmason]

hey

i was just thinking this today!

East london here, and happy to meet wherever!

Just to calm the nerves :p

[gladrags]

hey everyone, there have been a few issues with keeping the facebook group open, with our messages appearing on friends' news feeds etc.- so i'm going to do a trial run of making it a closed group. technically, that shouldn't stop people from being able to search us and request to join- though for some reason it did to begin with. if we get the same issue again, i'll change it back to open, so please let me know if you'd like to join but have trouble finding it! thanks

edit: if you search 'uk JET programme 2012', it should come up
