Lapaset (AGS MEETING)

Haddas · Tue 27/09/2005 19:44:00

Lapaset. which is the finnish word for Mittens, which also happens to be a meeting that shall be held in Finland (Lapaset that is). It will be held at my house which is big and can house many peoples. Now all I need to know is who might show up, and what time would be suitable, to avoid clashing with Brittens and the oh so official Mittens. I've started this thread this early because these things take planning, and better safe than sorry, right?

One prequisite is that the meeting takes place between June and August. The dates haven't been set, so let's hear proposals.

LIST BE HERE:

People hosting:
1. ME
People coming:
1. Pablo
2. Ishmael
3. JetXL
4. Visy

I will most surely come. Well... of course it depends of the money situation at the time. But I'm quite sure I'll be there.

Tuomas · Tue 27/09/2005 19:49:32

Count me in

we'll have fun, the three of us

Pet Terry · Tue 27/09/2005 20:21:25

I prefer June.

See you there.

Andail · Tue 27/09/2005 20:25:23

I've never been to Finland, so that would be a good opportunity.

"lapaset", haha, you and your crazy language.

hahaha.

Ishmael · Tue 27/09/2005 20:28:18

Pablo, I will take you there with a kottikÃ¤rry if neccesary

But I have no idea when would suit me best. I have a feeling I might have something for the change of June and July, but that's not at all sure.

GarageGothic · Tue 27/09/2005 20:28:55

So much is changing in my life right now, that I don't even know where I will be next summer. But if I can make it, I certainly will participate. So would this be in Helsinki? Always wanted to go there - and I even have enough frequent flyer miles to take me.

Ishmael · Tue 27/09/2005 20:33:16

The AGSer World Map might help... well, not too much, since Finland doesn't have the map part, but you get the idea.

Vel · Tue 27/09/2005 20:39:10

I might just show up, if it is somewhere in July-August. No promises though.

jetxl · Tue 27/09/2005 20:39:30

Man, I would really like to go to Finland. Land of pinetrees, pinetreees and lasers. But I don't know if my uni life can handle that.
Count me in as a maybe.

Guess I have to skip Brittens.

"Vantar" loses!

It won't be in Helsinki, but you will probably be landing there, as it is 1-1Â½ hour by highway from there and you can get to about 4km from our house by bus. Transportation won't be that big a problem. It's in the countryside, in a fennoscandic village. We'll be. Now that the number of participants grow we will have to plan how to move larger groups of people from the house to town, and stuff. But there's nothing that I can't handle! it would be awesome if all the other finnish agsers who are old enough to get a drivers license would do so and get an automobile of some sorts... Otherwise mass transit might have to be used, and we wouldn't want that, would we? Â¬Â¬

Ubel · Tue 27/09/2005 20:51:14

Ishmael can transport us with that kottikÃ¤rry of his.

Ishmael · Tue 27/09/2005 20:53:39

Actually, I checked, and couldn't find it anywhere...

Kinoko · Wed 28/09/2005 05:34:52

Finland, Finland, Finland.

The country where I want to be.

Noone else had said it yet.

Haddas · Wed 28/09/2005 15:20:53

Now we even have a themesong for the power point presentation with slides and stuff that won't be made.

Do Finlanders generally know that you have one of the most highly skilled, artistic and creative juggling groups in the world in your country?

I know juggling is slightly bigger in Europe than it is in North America (it is actually possible for non-street-performer jugglers and non-cruise-ship acts to make a living), but it's still a fair subculture. Had you any idea?

Tuomas · Wed 28/09/2005 18:21:41

I have a drivers licence an most likely a car too. And I can bring a wheelbarrow, sorry, kottikÃ¤rryt for Ishmael, so this means transprotation for at least 10 persons, 4 +me in my car and 4 to the kÃ¤rryt...

Haddas · Wed 28/09/2005 19:42:28

bspeers: No, i did not know that.

Tuomas: That would be awesome. I also have a car for 4+me, and in the worst case scenario my parents cars could provide transportation... Down with mass transit!

Tuomas · Wed 28/09/2005 19:45:49

Perhaps we could rent bicycles and have a nice arranged tour de countryside while we're at it
