AP Virtual GTG’s

To ALL

If you have an interest in any AP Virtual GTG’s then let me know by commenting in this thread please. It would be helpful to know where in the world you are, but don’t worry if you aren’t in the UK.

Just to be clear, these GTG’s are not mine, they are ours. I’m just gauging interest, and it’s important that these are not ‘exclusive’ but are ‘inclusive’. If you are an AP customer or an AP enthusiast (why else would you be reading this thread?) then you are welcome.

I’ve spoken with AP and AP are happy to do more GTG’s so that everyone can participate at some point.

Also, the numbers for an in person GTG are likely to be far too large and impersonal for just a single GTG, thus it’s likely that there will be multiple smaller ones, thereby giving everyone the chance to participate in those too.

These things take time to arrange, dates, numbers, participants etc, so bear with me please and I’ll update as and when appropriate, but don’t expect anything soon.

In the mean time, if anyone has any questions about anything AP related or wishes to introduce themselves to AP London then I’d implore you to email AP London directly, you will receive a reply.

Definitely Gary, really enjoyed it.

For anyone fairly new to AP, the last one was excellent - most importantly it was very friendly and welcoming, but equally it was informative and interesting. Quite happy to admit I’m out of my depth in terms of AP history and even many of the current models. This was a great learning curve. Highly recommended.

P.S. Gary is underplaying his input. His knowledge and enthusiasm is clear to see and it’s great he’s helping get these going

Thanks, much appreciated, but it’s no effort and it’s all good fun.

In future I’ll step back and AP can take it all in house, which is the panacea. Hopefully it can be a regular event(s).

Thanks Steve, I’m sitting the next one out myself. The next one will be sooner than I anticipated, perhaps next month or the beginning of April, with more to follow, so plenty to go around. This next one should go to those that missed the last one, so I may take you up on your offer.

To our US friends...

I’m working on arranging a US Virtual GTG. As with everything, it’ll take a little time. Hopefully AP NA play ball, in which case you’ll have access to AP NA directly for a nice casual fireside chat. But, as with AP UK, don’t wait for access to AP via secondary avenues such as this, if you’ve got a question then email them directly, ask whatever questions you’ve got. They publish an email address for a reason...

Thanks, no need for an exodus yet, I’d mentally subbed you in as the next AP interrogator!

Ahh nice. Consider me in for that own then! I’m happy to relinquish the next AP London one since my relationship is with NA

NOTE

For those of you that I don’t already have details for, could you do me a favour and PM me your full name, location and email address please. I’ll then keep that master list and update it as new names are added. No rush though. Thanks.
