As you can see by the cover photo; I took my video camera along and shot some bits and pieces from the day.
A video of the day will come soon and will act as my ‘actual’ post on my experiences of the day, but I also hope that the video will serve as a useful record and overview of what happened.
For those who don’t know about the event, here it’s summed up in my own words; SteemCampUK is an annual on day unconference in which Steemians volunteer their attendance to talk with other users face-to-face, however and whenever they choose to, about whatever they like, usually drinking coffee or tea, all with the one thing that unites and fascinates us all in equal measure - the STEEM platform.
I was delighted to be in the real-life company of 13 other super welcoming and super intelligent STEEM users.
Each person brought their own unique outlook on the token and platform, as well out outlining each of their desired take-aways from the platform.
In attendance were: @redrica, @dronegraphica, @slobberchops, @gillianpearce, @goblinknackers, @lloyddavis, @steevc, @revisesociology, @rod.crisafulli, @shanibeer, @starkerz, @teodora, @knightswood, @ashtv.
It’s sobering to think that the activeUK steem scene is so small. Everyone in the picture above accounts for 15% (I think) of active UK users.
(I assume ‘active’ means; engaged regularly with posts, comments, curation and attending meet-ups etc)
I know for a fact there are way more UK users who have an account but perhaps choose to sit more in the “very occasional use” category.
In short, it was a wonderful day planned and executed by the talented and welcoming @lloyddavis and @shanibeer.
Thank you ..
A video will follow very soon.
Thanks for reading :)

Yes is not a very big scene in UK, but sometimes it depends on the location and the willingness to travel. At the London meetup organised by @redrica in London we have a similar amount of people

Indeed, but even so the overall number of actives is amazingly small.
Let’s grow it 😁

Actually home home UK is doing really well compared to my current hime in Taiwan where thr population is 1/3 of UK. I'd be lucky to find five active Steemians.
Look forward to the video, always so gutted that I haven't been to one yet.

It was a fun day. I expect some of the people there are responsible to a significant increase in UK Steemians. Most of us have recruited someone.

Its brilliant you took away some things from the meet up, it’s a diverse group so like you say there’s scope to rally together in the future

Interesting, I hope @ned gives a shit out from this because he just recently sent a tweet and I thought hes already dead. Now hes making a noise because Btc is pumping. 🙄

I would really feel different attending such meet-up even if I have a normal appearance because talking to a person face to face melts me down because of my panic disorder @ashtv LOL
Yes I will feel awkward.

Oh man! I know what you mean; sometimes it is difficult meeting new people and talking in groups, but at least here everyone is in the same boat and caring about the same goal.
Hope you’re well my friend :)
