NOTE FOR USA
———————-

Scott (chiscott_29) has kindly offered to take the reins for our US friends’ GTGs, thank you.

For now, whilst this is still all just theoretical, then nothing changes, please still note your interest in this thread. As and when the time comes then he or I will update you further.

Gents, I just sent several PM’s asking for info, one piece of info that I forgot to ask for was your forum username. When the emails arrive I can’t necessarily tally who you are to your forum handle, so could you include that in your emails to me please. Thanks.

US UPDATE
-------------

I've just had a lengthy call with AP, following various emails, and I'm afraid to say that there won't be a US equivalent of our London Virtual GTG in the immediate future.

Please don't take that as AP being indifferent or uncaring, in fact it's more that AP NA want to do things properly, when they are properly able to.

There are plans afoot in the US to give the US some love which should manifest itself this year.

There's also a new NA CEO who has just taken up her role this last January and she herself was more than happy to dive straight in but was quite rightly talked down by her team, in fairness we'd have ambushed her :)

So for now, if any of you are feeling 'unloved' by AP then drop me a PM and I'll share a contact with you who will assist you. But if you are just going to email him and ask how to get a 15202 or 15407 then don't waste your breath!

Sorry guys, but everything for a reason.

Cheers,

Gary.

thanks for the update Gary, much appreciated. I am sure our patience will pay off - looking forward to and I hope it happens this year for AP fans in NA.

Unfortunately you poor old US folk are SOL for anything soon, but indeed if anything changes then I’ll let you know.

If we haven't had a PM does that mean its a no go this time?

Thanks,

The PM’s I sent were to a few US guys.

When it comes time for the next London gathering I’ll contact those that have registered an interest. So, you haven’t missed anything.

Obvious:
"gtg

written abbreviation for got to go, used in emails, etc."

Our friends here however seem to have redefined that as GetToGether...

I didn’t coin the phrase, it’s just regular internet slang as far as I’m concerned. But, indeed it makes no real sense as it’s not really an abbreviation, but then again this is the internet, so anything goes.

Oh I was made well aware that I was unworthy by several people. My sales rep is great. Anyone above that level - meh.

Anyway, don’t want to take things that direction.
