kneehighs Posted April 15, 2006 Author Share Posted April 15, 2006 Firefox is confirmed to attend the World Heel Meet 2006 I just got off the phone with Firefox and it is 95% certain that he will be making the meet! Woohoo! :drinking: WANTED: your help for attendee from Hamburg, Germany: heeluis Would any local be so kind as to help escort our friend Heeluis who is flying in all the way from Hamburg, Germany? He said he is not too familiar with London, and I was hoping someone could offer to help him out? Perhaps someone could offer him some tips on how to get from the airport to the Novotel Euston? Here is his itinerary information. Airport: London Stansted (STN) Airline: Ryan Air Arrival time from Hamburg Lübeck 9:40 a.m. Flight 435 Feminine Style . Masculine Soul. Skin In The Game.

at9 Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 From Stansted to Euston (for Novotel) EITHER: Bus A6 from Stansted Airport to Golders Green Station. Then Norrthern Line Tube (any southbound train) to Euston. OR: Bus A6 from Stansted Airport to Baker Street. Then walk about 1.5km directly East along main Marylebone Road/Euston Road road to hotel OR: (more expensive but possibly quicker) Stansted Express train to Liverpool Street, then Circle Line Tube to Euston Square http://www.londontoolkit.com/travel/stansted_airbus.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heelfan Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Congratulations kneehighs! Thanks to your untiring efforts, this Heel-Meet really is building up towards a bumper attendance! 14 expected with another 10 possibles (to date) is excellent! Jo rang me to say that he has now become a "probable" (rather than "possible") attendee, and it looks as though both micha and euchrid will be letting us know very soon whether they can come come. Any similar decisions yet from the rest of you "possibles" out there? Cheers, Heelfan Onwards and upwards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Shoe Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 I'm afraid to say that I won't be coming. Tara will probably come in my place! Graduate footwear designer able to advise and assist on modification and shoe making projects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heelfan Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 It'll be really great to see Si and Robert and so many other old faces again, and to meet some new ones (including Tara!), and the overseas interest is terrific! If everyone turns up, it will already beat the previous heel-meet record of fifteen established here at our Bristol premises two or three heel-meets ago. Cheers, Heelfan Onwards and upwards!

kneehighs Posted April 30, 2006 Author Share Posted April 30, 2006 In some past posts I have mentioned that I will be bringing a DVD camcorder to the meet. To clarify WHY: 1. to film a consenting member walking down the street and document the publics reactions 2. to film a consenting member trying shoes on in a shoe store. I'll volunteer for both if need be. Any additional filming I will leave to the discretion of the group. Feminine Style . Masculine Soul. Skin In The Game.

a3 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Hallo, for me it will be a weekend trip like I did of the meeting in Cardiff. Arrive to London on friday. Staying at the little Winrosehotel and leaving on sunday afternoon. For me there will be a lot of time to look around the London fashion and enjoying the atmosfeer of this big city and all the member who are coming. Thanks for so far to get everything on line Heelfan, Kniehight and others. Lets enjoy our heels and others to look at A3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneehighs Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 To clarify any misconceptions about the heel meet: 1. There will be NO press/media/newspapers invited. 2. There will be NO fashion stylist invited/present 3. Knowing that we are all at different levels of being "out" with our interest in shoes, I will take the deepest possible care to respect each person's own unique level of privacy and comfort--especially with regards to use of the DVD camcorder and camera pictures. Just hoping that everyone will feel comfortable and at ease amongst new friends...its going to be a nice time treating ourselves to each others company a3, thanks for sharing your itinerary.
