Of VT fun, frolics and firsts!!!

Well, I can't believe what a wonderful bunch of VTers you are! I asked a number of you to help out with a video project for VT - to help me learn new skills! Well, that was a small fib! Those of you who sent clips, you have help to create a video announcement for EuroMeet 2012 - being announced in Macedonia and here online! Check it out : "EuroMeet 2012 - A VT Announcement" - Bergamo Video by EurMeet Hope you all enjoy the end results - and the location for 2012!! See you there!!

    I was just thinking, perfect, going to uk in June 2012 for the 10th anniversary of meeting my other half on a VT meet in London(as brits were doing the annocement, I though that it would be in UK) to find myself checking flights to Italy!!! ok now I wonder, if Euromeet 2005 was near Bergamo (around 200km), Does it mean we should look a place 200km from Marbella (Euromeet 2006) for the Euromeet of 2013? ;-)

    Thanks Gilly! I remember at the Manchester meet you and others were suggesting Bergamo so it wasn't too much of a surprise. I need to look good for future video shoots lol!x

    Great job Gillian! Was so excited to see where it was - I have been dying for an excuse to get back to Italy and then....I saw the dates. Have already booked a trip starting June 2nd so it looks like Italy will have to wait a little longer. Maybe we'll make Euromeet in 2013??!!

    Bergamo might be doable for me - it's not far from Milan and I want to go to Milan someday. But whether I go or not depends on whether or not I decide to go to Seville next spring... As for Carmen's suggestion - how far is Seville from Marbella?

    I think it's about time I made it to another Euromeet! Italy sounds wonderful! How far is Bergamo from Brindizi? I might just put my car on the boat and hop on over for some funand frolics and my first time in Northern Italy. Great video Gilly!

    I've got a friend getting married the first week of June next year.... in the Philippines. Unless I can hurry up and work on that split personality thing I don't think I can make it to both. (now if the dates happen to change for the wedding.... *grin*)

    Fantastic Gillybob and Bergamo so accessible and more importantly, that date includes the change in bank holidays in 2012, good planning. PS are there any swimming pools for DAO?

    Hello Dave! Bergamo is made up of two parts. The old one and a newer part. I think there is a swimming pool in the new area. The old part of the town is small, but very nice.

    Great video, Gilly. I'll be signing up. I was planning on going to Lake Como with my friends next week, but unfortunately I've had to cancel...(owing to my ill health ATM)so this will be a wonderful alternative for next year.
