The First Ever Doctor Who Twitter Pub Crawl (Twubcrawl)!
What?
The Twubcrawl will be an opportunity for Doctor Who fans on twitter to meet in person and get to know each other over a few drinks at various pubs along a walking route designed to take in various Classic Doctor Who locations.
The idea is for people to tweet the progress of the group using the hashtag #twubcrawl so others can join along the route, as well as documenting the event in the same way by uploading pictures to twitter etc.
It is organised by Helen, from Brit Movie Tours, who specialises in Doctor Who Location Tours of England and Wales and Rod, from A Journal of Improbable Things: The Podcast, who will be documenting the event.
You don’t have to be on twitter to join in, so feel free to bring along people that haven’t quite gotten into the whole tweeting thing yet, maybe we can convince them by the end of the day!
Please feel free to get dressed up as The Doctor or your favourite companion although this is completely optional.
When?
The Twubcrawl will take place on Saturday 2nd April 2011. We will be meeting at the first pub at 3pm. We are expected to finish at about 8pm.
Where?
The Twubcrawl will start at The Centre Page pub on Knightrider Street in the City of London near to St. Paul’s and will be finishing in the Shad Thames/Butler’s Wharf area (near Tower Bridge).
Things to remember:
– Wear sensible shoes! We’ll be doing a fair amount of walking.
– Wrap up warm as we will be by the river for a lot of the walk between pubs.
– You must be 18 to join in with this event. Please bring ID with you if you’re lucky enough to look young. We really don’t want anyone to get refused entry into pubs because they can’t prove they’re over 18.
You can say hello to us or ask questions about the event on twitter @DW_Tours or @JOITPodcast. Don’t forget to use the #twubcrawl hashtag!
