Mers from the British Isles!

[SummerRogue]

At the moment I'm swimming every tuesday at 1:00 but I really want to go more Silver sands in Morar is the most beautiful beach I've ever found in Scotland the fairy pools in Skye are a definite must for pictures I'll be going there quite soon actually when I collect my silicone tail from Florida. I'm kind of stalking you on facebook now lol I love your tail it's really pretty

[Mermaid Melanie]

Oohhh Morar looks stunning ! :O Ah for sure Fairy Pools are like top of the list for magical mermaidery :P Would love to have a mer-meet up/ shoot there ! Oh awesome who are you getting your tail from ? Merbellas? aw haha thanks lovely glad your following the updates on my page ! ( mind you after that competition I did Ive not had much chance to be a mermaid ! ) I have 2 wedding gigs next month so hopefully will get some nice shots/footage from them ! Going to miss these jobs when I come home, but got to keep on swimming :P

I'm getting my tail from Mernation, I'm so excited! I think Morar would be great for a meet up, the water is so clear

[Mermaid Melanie]

You guys makes me sooo jealous of living in Scotland with that incredible nature.
I have to get there somehow, haha

[Mermaid Melanie]

Oh Thanks Lilium ! Much appreciated ! Have asked to join the group and also sent you a FR ! Oh Yulia thats so lovely to hear, makes me glad I'm actually going home but I'm sure Sweden has some pretty amazing places to visit too ! If we have a UK or Scotland mer-meet up you should try and come though ! ha Maybe one day there will be a MerFest in the UK or Europe ! :P

[SiaTheMermaid]

I would love a merfest in the UK, it would be awesome

[Mermaid Lilium]

well there's the folkstone mermaid festival happening in august from what we can tell and there was one planned for london in may but it looks like that one has fallen through.

I've been aiming to plan a meet in Blackpool in september which might be easier for scottish mers to get to =) there's trains from glasgow and edinburgh that run straight to Preston and then there's a 20 min connection from Preston to blackpool.

Hopefully in the next month or two i'll be able to start getting some solid details together for people but we were thinking of a day on the pleasure beach theme park, a photo op on the beach and then renting a heated pool for the evening that we could all swim in. And then maybe a trip to the sea life center and the tower in the morning before people have to travel home? as I figured most people will need to stay in blackpool overnight. I'm going to see if I can get a good price on hotel rooms for people too, Though depending on if my family has managed to get a new house or not (currently renting), then a bunch of people could come crash at my house and save on the hotel costs =)

Though I will add for the sake of southern mers that I met up with Vixy the other day and we were talking about once i've gotten at least one event in blackpool under my belt, that I might organise something in cornwall with her help. When I have the chance and the money I'll be going down there to visit and check out possible locations for it =)

[SiaTheMermaid]

Depending on what my funds are like, it's something I would definitely be interested in doing

[Mermaid Orcinus]

If the Blackpool meet up is still on, I am interested!

Hi mers, I have created an event on FB (London), feel free to join and invite friends. For a swim, we have several opportunities, however I will probably not book a pool. Ideas about going to natural lakes/ponds are great, if you have a favourite, let me know! Keep an eye on the event. SPREAD THE WORD EVERYONE! I need numbers asap to be able to fully organise it https://www.facebook.com/events/626217754221677/

[Elvenhaired]

Changed the event to private, so if you would like to join, drop me a line, and I'll send a friend request on FB

I'm not originally from the British Isles, but I live here for the foreseeable future. I'm just a bit outside Cambridge.

Is there a Euro Pod group on Meetup.Org? I'm part of a knitting group on there and it's been a great way to organize meetups and trips.

[Mermaid Fenicia]

There is one on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3805...?ref=bookmarks

Is the Facebook group very active/chatty?

[Mermaid Lilium]

It is sporadically =)

For those interested I also finally created an event page for the blackpool meet: https://www.facebook.com/events/1626552804295821/ it won't let me make the event public for some reason so if you need an invite and can't rsvp, msg me and I'll send you a friend request and event invite =)
