OK; so technically they’re not grills, they’re barbeques. But Thursday 22 July 2010 does look set to be the best Meetdraw yet, as we make the very most of the sizzling Bournemouth summer!
Whip out your shorts, dust down your office-white legs and come join us at the Branksome Dean Community Rooms where we plan on steaking over the beach at around 7pm, with food sponsored by the good soles at Folk.
Pure rump roast? Nothing butt!
You bring your booze; we bring a band of happy chefs who will be waiting to cook for you! Plus there’ll be a couple of guest stalls too! Including Lou from the Green Deli and Louisa from Lulubelles Cakes. Yum!
Fancy getting involved in the barbequing action yourself and being one of our chefs? Lettuce know!
Are you a game bird?
Great! – Then we have a super sandcastle building competition for you! – And most probably a rounders tournament for those feeling eggstra energetic.
We won’t let the rain foil your fun!
Even if it’s more drizzling than sizzling, there will be cover inside the Community Rooms thanks to sponsorship from Creative Advantage and the Dorset Design Forum, so don’t let any baaad weather put you off!
So, where do we meat?
The Community rooms are at Branksome Dene Chine, set back slightly up the cliff. See the map (PDF) for details. There’s also loads of parking if you’re planning to drive.

One time, at Bar Camp… hold on, what is Bar Camp anyway?
It’s a free (ticket needed) self-organizing un-conference for anyone interested in the digital and online world. All attendees are encouraged to get involved, either giving a presentation or hosting a discussion.
Starting at 10am Saturday April 10th and going right through to 4pm Sunday at Bournemouth University (main campus)… it’s also got free meat! …thanks to our kind sponsors, the sat evening buffet and Sunday breakfast are included.
Last time there were sessions from the very technical “web 2.0 applications, introducing MVC with the zend framework” to the controversial “designers vs developers – why can’t we get along?” and the off tangent but impressive “how I built a jet engine in my garage”… discussion panels (including: “digital death, what happens when I die?”), lightening talks of 5×5mins and the charity crowd sourced haircut… some attendees carry on overnight, coding and socialising (the bars open till 11pm). More info on #bcbomo2.
The website says all tickets have now gone, but, we reserved a few for meetdraw folks – sign up at barcampbournemouth.org (ignore the reserve list message) we’d love to see you.
Also follow us on twitter for updates @bcbournemouth (#bcbomo2) Hope to see you there!

Thats right, one of many things we have planned on Thursday night is a good old game of Bingo but with a twist. Ballsh*t Bingo is going to be there to inject some humour as well as giving everyone an excuse to talk to each other – plus you get a free drink if you join in, whats not to like!
Below are the instructions for the game. Upon entry you will all receive a coloured animal sticker that will also act as a name badge. After that simply follow the rules of the game to join in. Click the image to see it in alls its glory.

Not long now until the fun starts all over again! We’ve got some new and big ideas for this forthcoming event but we’ll be keeping them under wraps a little longer. In the meantime go over to our Facebook event page to tell us whether you can attend.
What do all the coloured circles and animals mean?! watch our Twitter and Facebook feeds to find out soon.
