Montgomery Fest (that is the the couple that go around holding hands a lot) and Mrs Sensible and I are considering the possibility of organising a weekend meeting in Budapest for bloggers.
So we are testing the water to see if anyone is interested in joining us for a weekend of madness fun.
We are thinking of springtime
A fun Awards Ceremony
And either a dinner
and or a dance.
So if you think you might be interested either send me a message with how many people, using this form, or contact Montgomery Fest using this form
or stamp your feet and shout very loudly
We have created a second site where we will upload more details, as soon as we get some feedback and numbers. Please go to http://bloggersbunfight.wordpress.com
YES. You never fail to disappoint, PN. This is the single greatest invitation to any shindig in the history of shindigs. Peeps, it’s gonna be epic.

It has to be a winner, who would want to miss a bun fight like this??
I have decided I will wear my best dinner suit, bow tie and flip flops.

I had to google what a bunfight is! I for one would certainly not want to miss ‘an ironic official function’ with crazy fab bloggers. Watch out now!

Where would we be without google?

No, I want to see you in the little black dress we were talking about 😀

Oh would so love to go… I’d rather attend something like this with crazy … err I meant “fun” people than the “big” and “scary” (to me at least) blog conferences going around in blogosphere. Are kiddies allowed or are you folks going to throw us out? =p

Considering Mrs Sensible thinks I am a big kid, how can we refuse them entry??
Depending on numbers we might organise a creche.

I’d loooove to come. I’m sure this could be twisted into somehow benefiting my work (speaking English?).

Brill, do me a favour and fill out one of the contact forms. I am not sure how beneficial this will be to speaking English.. the last couple of messages have been discussions on the misuse of strange words ie bunfight (party) and creche (fortified place to leave children while you have a good time) But we can try

Done and done. I’ll find some strange English words to bring up.

We would so love to come! That sounds fantastic! However i’m not sure we can…Australia is a long way from Budapest and we have a farm to run but keep us in the loop because who knows!

Nooooooo, We will have to toast your health with a glass or two

Well as a said, keep us in the loop because if we can make it then we would love to! However a toast to our health is good 🙂 We could make the trip and everyone who attends has to let us stay with them in their country of origin before and afterwards to make the most of our trip 😉

You are welcome here, but start your diet now. Because Mrs Sensible is a great cook and you will put on a kilo or two

We might take you up on that 😉 We would be honoured to partake of Mrs Sensible’s cooking!

That sounds fun. Budapest is a tad difficult to get to from Montpellier and expensive too. Would it be during the half term holidays?
LikeLike
Hi Sarah, We hope it will be fun
We provisionally said Budapest but it is not yet set in stone, we would love to hear suggestions. Again we would like to do it in the school holidays but I guess the dates very across europe.
Hopefully anyone interested will bounce a message down one of the contact forms and we can keep them updated as we go along. Have a look at http://bloggersbunfight.wordpress.com/ we will use this site to keep everyone in the loop.

I’d love to but won’t know for sure until a bit closer to the time! It’ll be fund-dependent 😉 Fantastic idea though!

Count me in. As long as it is not during Bigfoot’s exam periods and I can buy low-priced tickets over the net a long time in advance. Sarah, maybe we could do the expedition together? We can either go by train, Jane Austen-style with lacy bonnets on our heads, or Thelma and Louis our way across Europe with silk scarves and sunglasses (I will refrain from saying, “gaga, you have been a very bad girl”, I promise). I’ve never visited Budapest, PF says it’s fabulous. Paris would be nice too, though.
LikeLike
Great, . Paris does sound nice, but it is full of French People. I would like Italy because it is near home and you can get a decent pizza here.
As soon as we know who is coming we can hammer out the final details. I know my blog it not known for being particularly sensible (apart from Mrs Sensible) but we intend to organise the bun fight properly, so migrate over here http://bloggersbunfight.wordpress.com/ and follow it, we will post all the new information.

Already done, but Montgomery fest’s server was rude to me when I submitted my form. MAybe it objected to my choice of colour and refuses anyone who dares to say ‘red’.

🙂 🙂
Red, as in red dress, you know it is a small black dress night, if you meant red flip flops that is ok.
LikeLike
Na, they ask what your favourite colour is on the form. Mine is red. I have the little black dress. Whether I still fit into it is a differnt matter, though…

Oh I am sure it will fit. I can still get in my wedding suit… I might not be able to button it, but I can still get in it.. 🙂

Oh no, MM! Sorry about that. We’re in the process of switching to self-hosting and it must have affected it…I didn’t even think about the contact page! I think we’ve got it settled though, so going forward….contact all you want!

Hi Annie & Justin,
If you want an excuse to go to Italy, then let’s decided to organise it here. It would make more sense, because I can then drive and check out hotels, rooms etc. Plus be here the night before to make sure everything is ok.
You are more than welcome to come and stay with us, which will save you and I the cost of a hotel.
I have attached the excel sheet.
All the best
Pete

hey PN would love to come and have got plenty of flip-flops.
Never been to Budapest so that’s another advantage.
Will be monitoring the Bloggers Unite with palpitations and fibrillation (does that word even exist…) for a date to put in my Spring diary.
hope it will be a good bunch of crazy bloggers? all wearing flip flops?
