Well, January looks set to be an incredibly busy month especially with regards to travelling off this little island of ours .

The 6th sees the first leg of the Carling Cup semi-finals, with Burnley fielding a team away at Tottenham. Hopefully we will be playing a little better than our recent run of form, two losses in two games isn’t a good thing by any standard.

The 14th brings the BETT trade fair, relating to IT in education. A team of four students, including myself, are going up to support and assist the Eduprint team; however more about that in a future post.

The 21st rolls in with the second leg of the Carling Cup semi-final, with Tottenham bringing up a team to East Lancashire to face the mighty claret and blue army. After this game we’ll know for sure if we’ve made it to the final at Wembley or not, here’s hoping .

Finally to round off the month the 24th is the Scotland phpBB meet, so I’ll be heading up to jump across the border. This one really isn’t to be missed if you are available and have an interest in phpBB; a number of team members will be there so it is a great opportunity to put usernames to faces and have a generally good and enjoyable time.

So as you can see, 4 trips away in 4 weeks; a very busy month all round .

Remember the highly successful and entertaining Londonvasion held in June of this year? Well, Daniel (Greenweaver) and Kenny (cherekoee red) have decided to hold a general phpBB get-together and meet up in Scotland next January .

If you are available and interested in attending there are numerous phpBB team members that will be popping along including Raimon, camm15h, NeoThermic, ToonArmy as well as everyone’s favourite nub Paul. I’ll also be attending so come and join the fun.

As with any event like this, it doesn’t matter if you are a novice or an expert; everyone is welcome to attend, socialise and learn more about the great community we call phpBB.

For more information on when and where it is see the topic located in the events section over at phpBB.com. If you want more details then I’m sure Daniel or Kenny will be happy to answer any questions either in the topic or via PM .
