Hey all! It's only 97 days until Christmas so we are starting the planning for the annual TPM Festive Meet. As many of you are aware, the previous December meets have been a trip into London, visiting London Eye, Tussauds, Dungeons, Winter Wonderland etc. This topic is just to gain some feedback for what you'd like to do at this years meet.

Hola! I’m excited to finally announce the details for our 2017 European trip to PortAventura! The dates for this meet will be Saturday 9th September - Tuesday 12th September. There is not a vote for this meet due to other commitments and trying to make the trip as cheap as possible for all. This is a longer meet than usual due to there being two parks and a waterpark which we will be visiting. PortAventura is a fantastic park and I would recommend a few days to get everything done (plus ride Baco until you break your backo). As this is a trip abroad it is strictly an over 18’s meet I’m afraid. I understand some of you may be disappoint…
