Hi Ann, My flight gets in at 12.10 in the afternoon after 14 long hours in the Air! It's usually only 12 hours but we have a stop in Manchester on the way this time :( Oh well, It'll be worth it :D

We will have to figure out what will be good then. I was thinking the 20th but I am guessing you may need a nap!!! The closer it gets the better plans we can make.

Jacqui, if you are up to it, the 20th may be best for some people. Maybe in the afternoon, or the 21st would be fine too. Scott what about you, could you do the 21st for a mini meet? Of course Scott I will be watching the Sox all week so if you want to meet up before then that would be cool too!! 18th at Wynn Sportsbook??? 4 O'Clock? Then with Jacqui anywhere anyone suggests would be good for me!!!

18th would be cool..BUT..we arent (unfortunately) taking the Concorde this time around..Delta doesnt get us in until 730p vegas time monday...by the time we collect our bags and get a Taxi, check in and all....

so the 19th, 20th are good for a ball game, then thursday (21st) we dont have to be at the airport until late (945-1000p) so we may be able to do a mini-meet as it were...

keep us informed

Hey Ann & Scott, I will check in with my friend to see whether we are meeting up on Wednesday or Thursday and will be able to get back to you asap as to when my best time would be. I'm worried that I may be a bit tired on Wednesday after a 14 hour flight but, hey, it's Vegas, who needs sleep? :p

hey, if you guys decide on a time, I might try and meet up with you too!

Ann....I believe we met back in June 2001, during one of the aol "meets"?

Scott....I just moved from Boston less than a year ago....would love to meet another fellow Bahstonian.

Jacqui....would just love to meet you!

Please just set whatever is convenient for you folks, and I'll see if I can make it....sometimes I have "kids" responsibilities, so I can't always come out, but will certainly try. I just live 15 minutes away from the Strip.

Doris I thought that was you!!! I missed the meet in your suite for some reason, but it doesn't surprise me you ended up in LV. I believe it was 2001, the world was different then!!
I am not sure if you remember this, but I am also from the Boston area, Lynnfield to be exact. I do miss it!!!

Of course I remember you were from the North Shore. I remember a number of people. But to be honest, I can't remember everyone's faces, but I remember facts about them. Do you remember that evening at the Fontana's where we did the gift swap? I ended up with the Ace which was the best card out of everyone else's.....the funny part was I wanted this Shrek tee shirt soooo bad and got it! Well, I still have the tee shirt, and my youngest daughter uses it as a sleep shirt. LOL

Yes, you missed the meeting in my suite....there were about 17 people who showed up and Caesars was generous enough to send up a great spread and lots of wine and beer.

I will try to come out and meet everyone....its fun. I just hope my schedule permits it.

Would love to see you again Ann.

It would be great seeing you also!!! The Fontana meet was awesome, we had a blast!!! I remember the Shrek Shirt and the fury it caused, everyone seemed to want that and the slot angel pin!!!
I hope we can get together!!!

I remember the slot angel pin too. lol. If memory serves me correctly, I think the pin was either the gift brought by Tweets (from Buffalo), or she may have been the one who won it. Perhaps Tweets will answer the mystery. lol

Hi Doris...it's been ages............
I brought slot machine pins for everyone one year...not sure it was that "meet though." I think that was the year BigBadBob brought the Slot Machine Angel for a prize. I have an angel but was one that Bob and Jenny gave to me. That night I won a Chicago restaurant cook book that Q brought. :)

Hi Ann and Scott and anyone else who wants to join us!

Would you be okay to meet on the evening of the 20th? (Wednesday). I am meeting up with friends on the 21st before they head back to Boston so I wouldn't be free that day. Let me know what you think! It's not long and I can't wait! :D

Should be fine, could we do it in the afternoon though? Maybe around 4-4:30?? And where should we meet, Jacqui I know you are at TI, Scott is at Harrah's and I will be at Bellagio by then.............And Jacqui if your friends want to join us, tell them to come along........We don't bite!!!

sounds like caesar's may be central, but we will go almost anywhere that's convienent to most

05-13-2007, 11:06 PM
might also do it in June, but if I cannot get a decent deal, I will go to Laughlin..I always enjoy going to the Colorado Belle there..very laid back place and very different than LV..price is right too! But then I am an old fart and enjoy relaxing by the pool or soaking in the spa, swapping conversation with others...

BobDeJongh
05-13-2007, 11:08 PM
Plan to do LV in June also, but unless I get a good deal, I will head to Laughlin instead..as I drive down, that is not a great problem..what is a few miles more to 1200?

Jacqui, Duskette8
05-14-2007, 07:06 AM
Caesar's would be fine for me. I don't want to stray too far from the TI because we probably won't get into the hotel until about 1.30-2pm and my mum may be tired after a 14 hour flight so that way she can go back to the room if she is feeling that it is too much for her.

I told my friend to join us if she wants too. She has actually been a member of this board longer than I have, she introduced me to it!! ha ha...

Alright then maybe the seahorse lounge? Or Jacqui we could do the Breeze Bar if that would work out better for you or the Revolution Lounge at Mirage if it is open in the afternoon............Let me think about this!!!

Jacqui what would you prefer to do? You are the one getting in from a VERY long flight.......Let us know. 4-4:30 would be the perfect time for me, but place doen't much matter. We are moving from Wynn to Bellagio in the morning then we are free.

05-17-2007, 03:15 PM
Hi Ann, The Mirage at 4.30 would be ideal for me. Not too far for mum either if she gets tired. Let me know if that suits everyone! Where is Breeze? Sorry, I don't drink so I don't know what the bars are called lol... I will find my way there though! :)

(p.s. I may not be able to reply for a couple of days, I'm in London on business at the moment and tonight is the first chance I've had to get online since early yesterday morning. Back in Glasgow at the weekend so I will check in as soon as I get home)

Jacqui If we meet at the Mirage, how about the Abbey Road Bar outside Revolution Lounge, I have no idea if there are seats besides the bar but it is worth checking out. Or if it is better for you, the bar right outside the Coffee Shop at TI could work too. Either way, I know you are coming in from a long flight that day so we would like to make it easy on you.
Scott are you up for it??

Would you guys mind if it was in the TI? There is a bar in the centre of the casino, just as you come in the door at the car/taxi entrance? (this is the only bar down there I can think of, is this the one you meant Ann?) I met with Greg (GregRio) and Kurt (King of Kurtopia) at that bar last year and it was a great place to meet! I'm only thinking of that in case my mum has to go lie down, I would rather be near for her. If it is easier for you guys to go to the Mirage though that would be fine, it wouldn't be too far! :)

And Matthew.... I would love it if you came along!! You bum ha ha ha! :D

Oh no! That's a shame - I would have LOVED to have met you guys! You will have to tell me what dates you are going next year because I normally go a week or two either way each year! Thank you so much for the holiday wishes.. that is so nice of you and very very kind! I hope your next trip to the best place on the Planet is just as happy and exciting too! Thanks Chump and BG! :)

OMGosh Scott, I forgot about that! I was to let you know if there was less than 10 in the group! There was a full group of us though which is why it had gone out of my mind! I feel so bad now, I'm so so sorry! The boneyard was great (they only take a maximum of 10 people per tour because it the curator has to open it up and do the tour herself). It's sad to see all those signs just lying around. They are trying to get enough money to restore them all eventually so people can give donations or pay to go and see it. Here is a slideshow to some of the signs:

(to be honest, by our last day i had forgotten all about it..something flashed back in my head the other morning, and remembered to ask you how you liked it is all...)

Two more Vegas loving UK girls here. We're going out 7th-22nd June but meeting up 20th-22nd with cousins from Phoenix who will be in Vegas so won't be able to meet up this year. We go for two weeks each year in June so maybe next year we'll be able to join you or anyone else for a chat.

I've spent a week reading all these Trip Reports, never found them before and they make a great read and now I can't wait for Thursday to come around.

This year I'm making loads of notes so wait for my report when I get back. In the meantime if you're in Frontier Bingo we may be there if cousins are on the tables or up to their eyes with the kids. Two 40somethings (actually 52 but like to think a few years younger!!!!), both blonde shoulder length hair and probably wearing M&S stuff. Look out for us and introduce yourself. Not too many Brits at Bingo looking confused at times. I sure will be sad when this place closes. We've spent many a happy hour here, too sad for words.

Anyway have a fantastic trip and I'm getting more excited the more Trip Reports I read. The Jackpot Parties are calling from across the Pond, particularly Treasures of The Acropolis!!!!!!!!!!

Good Luck.

Two more Vegas loving UK girls here. We're going out 7th-22nd June but meeting up 20th-22nd with cousins from Phoenix who will be in Vegas so won't be able to meet up this year. We go for two weeks each year in June so maybe next year we'll be able to join you or anyone else for a chat.

I've spent a week reading all these Trip Reports, never found them before and they make a great read and now I can't wait for Thursday to come around.

This year I'm making loads of notes so wait for my report when I get back. In the meantime if you're in Frontier Bingo we may be there if cousins are on the tables or up to their eyes with the kids.

ROFL... "probably wearing M&S stuff" ha ha ha.... I'm sure I will spot you! Where are you in the UK Corrine? I get my annual Vegas fix at the same time as you roughly - pity you can't make the meet - I WILL however
be in the Frontier bingo at every given opportunity so I will be sure to look out for you. When you get there, there is a woman who sits at the table straight facing the caller. She is around 70 (but looks GREAT for her age) with shoulder length red hair - her name is June and moved to the States (now Vegas but stayed in a few places beforehand) from Scotland about 30 years ago. You should give her a shout, she goes to the 11am session and the odd time will go to the 1pm one too. She is LOVELY! I can't wait to see and chat to her again - my mum and her could talk for Scotland! Oh I still think I'm 17 (I'm not! ha ha) so I will be wearing whatever 17 year olds will wear (not quite, but not far off it lol) but my mum will be wearing M&S so look out for us in case we miss you - you can see my avatar pic and my mum is 4'8" with white hair... you can't miss her! ha ha

Have a wonderful time Corrine! :D

Hi Jacqui

We are in Buckinghamshire. Many miles from you and obviously love Vegas as much as you guys.

We shall go quite a few times to Bingo I expect and will try and find June so she can tell you we've been there. Whether or not we get there the last couple of days of the holiday is anyone's guess as the cousins will be around and I don't expect they're into Bingo at all.

I take it you know you can get a Funbook each day at The Frontier with a free u-pick 8 coupon in it.

Last year out of four times (3 sessions each) in a fortnight we won $1,200 between us which was a great result. Hopefully we'll all be lucky this year and then next year it will be gone, so, so sad.

Sam's Town and Terribles is also quite good for Bingo.

Have a great time and maybe see you there. I've made a note of where you'll all be for the meet and you never know we may just be walking through at the same time!!!!!!

I'm so pleased I found these forums, I'm totally addicted now and getting more excited by the day.
