Anyone in London?

Hey guys.. whilst chatting on another thread, we got chatting about this community, and I wondered if there many of you here in London? It seems to me that there are a lot of us here working alone, with limited support from within our organisations.
Thought it would be cool to exchange email addies - maybe organise a meet up for a coffee at some point to share ideas and tips??

Hi Ant! Tom Kuhlmann's doing a London event in May where you'd be able to connect with quite a few London-area Articulate users. More details here.
Thanks Jeanette - I've already signed up!!! But thanks again
Hi Ant
I am based in the East Midlands, I get down to London two-three times a month. Happy to share email addresses. I know Bruce Graham has responded to you regarding SLUGUK and he is working hard on organising a get together. Also the Leeds conference is a great place to meet people
Phil
Hi Phil - good to meet you, I'm at antpugh@hotmail.com or get me on Skype: antpugh
Hi I'm based in London (work and living) - Bruceviney@hotmail.com be glad to share knowledge and experiences.
...and what is SLUGUK?
Hi Bruce.. nice to make your acquantaince! Where do you work and what is your role?
Hi Ant
I work in the City in a Commercial Bank and I lead on Compliance Training for EMEA. How about yourself? Is there a LinkedIn Articulate group by the way?
Hi (other) Bruce
See sluguk.co.uk for further information.
There's a load of stuff hidden in the background until launch.
Yes there IS a LinkedIn group, but frankly, this forum is a lot more active and the "place to be" (in my opinion...)
Bruce
I'm in charge of eLearning at a telco company in the city.. I don't really use LinkedIn too much but have been finding these forums really useful, just wish there were a few more people from the UK about!!
Ant,
I think there are quite a lot of us, (many thousands of UK Presenter licenses sold!), however, there really needs to be a compelling reason to get people together sometimes.
I'm hoping that SLUG_UK can provide some of that contact between people, in paralle with the event that Dragos runs; not just Storyline but Presenter too, because many people who just use Presenter will just want to have a look-see at SL.
SLUG will fail unless the community gets "involved", (like here, or any other UG), so any ideas you have for e.g. get-togethers etc. would be really appreciated.
Bruce
Hi Ant I'm based in Bromley so not far from you!
Hi all - I'm also based in the UK in Wiltshire. London easy to get to for any possible get togethers.
Pam
Hi Pam and Louise!! Good to make both of your acquantainces!!
Are either of you coming to London on Tuesday 22nd May for the Tom Kulmann masterclass?
Hi Ant
Sadly not able to make the 22 May masterclass.
Thanks for starting this thread - to connect with the UK's Articulate community.
Pam
No problem - maybe we can organise a get together later this summer.. would be good to spend some time together, give each other tips etc.?
Yep I am! Should also be great time to meet everyone!
Me too - my accountant is always telling me to get my expenses higher for the purposes of tax efficiency, so I'm always up for some travel and food
It's looking possible that the "SLUG UK Jam" meeting will be in West London in October, so anyone of course will b e welcome to that as well.
Bruce
Excellent - thanks for the heads up Bruce
*bump* I'm in London, are there really not that many about using Articulate (also Storyline now)?
Hi Peter and good to make your acquantaince! I'm sure there are a few of us out there..
Where are you and what is your background?
Work over in the Paddington; new to it all (including London!) really, not that long out of Uni... I joined a digital agency in February and learning a lot!
We provide knowledge solutions within the Pharma industry, I just got Storyline and it's super easy
Also, how about you? (it was rude of me not to ask!)
Me too (new to London!).. but am loving it - I work over in Old Street (central/east London).
Do you use Skype? Feel free to add me to chat: antpugh@hotmail.com
I eat at Yo Sushi Paddington whernever I am up in town!
Does that count?
