After the stonking success of the first Bloggers Bash, the committee crawled under their respective duvets and hid having exhausted their supplies of extroversion.
HOWEVER, we have recovered, reconvened… discussed, deliberated…. and guess what…. we’re going to do it all over again! THE BASH IS BACK PEOPLE. The bash is really back.
If you weren’t able to make the last one because you didn’t find out in time, there’s no excuse this time. We are giving you plenty of notice. Have you ever wanted to meet up with a fellow blogger? Perhaps you made friends with someone and would love to meet them in person, or maybe you’re just nosy about who’s really behind the screen. Well now’s your chance.
The second Annual Bloggers Bash will be on:
June 11th 2016
And this time, it’s going to be even bigger and better than last year…
If you’re interested in coming, or are willing to help promote the event then drop us a line at:
annualbloggersbash (AT) yahoo (DOT) co (DOT) uk
Don’t forget the Annual Bloggers Bash Awards will be back too, but more about that in a few months.
One more thing. Last year some guy with boobs, or was it manboobs, tried to derail the bash. If you know who he is, or see him making sabotage like plans, he better watch out. Give him a message from me…
I’m coming for your Boobs.
I’ll be there with a mojito in the air! The date is in my diary!!!
WOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOO, there definitely needs to be more booze this year! :p
I’m coming to this one, and have put the date in my diary too!
Fantastic – I can’t wait to meet you 😀
I am looking forward to meeting you and the others too 🙂

The BASH is BACK! Hope to see all our old friends, and some new ones, in June 2016! ?
Looks like you’re going to have to book the Albert Hall, Sacha 🙂
Haha, maybe not quite the Albert hall! but hopefully a bigger location! :p
Woo hoo! Perhaps this time I’ll be able to make it. You sure did give us enough warning 😀
gosh really? That would be wicked. Would love you meet you 🙂
Same here 🙂

Anyone outside UK who attends will be made VERY welcome by Sacha and her lovely Gang of BlogBashKiteers 😀
Thanks my lovely. So wish we could meet your secretive self! :*( <3

I can only hope thats true. Maybe we will bump into each other at the Pyramids or next some obscure ancient monolith!
😀 😀 😀

This looks like fun! Great way to connect with fellow bloggers. Thanks Sacha Black for creating a great event.
Hey Nicola, thanks so much for popping by and for the reblog. Would be great if you could come along, all are welcome 😀
I’m new to your blog, but have just reblogged this post. Hope I can make it.

You all know what a great time we had earlier this year. Plans for 2016 are already underway…
Ahhh thank you so much Jools – I hope you will be making an appearance next year too 😀 😀 😀
Reblogged this on Legends of Windemere.
Thank you Charles, I so wish you guys across the pond were closer 🙂
You’re welcome. Time zones definitely makes events hard to do.
Yeah! Before the holidays so hope to make it.? Great with such advance notice.
THATS FAB NEWS Annika, I would love to meet you 🙂
Likewise Sacha? it will be great to meet you and many of the others here on WP.
I absolutely want to go to this! I’ve never been to any blogging meet ups so it would be lovely to meet the people behind the blogs!
Hi Stacey – we would love to have you. Everyone is welcome, and the more the merrier. It was such fun meeting everyone – and they really are as lovely in person as they are on their blogs.

It’s back! I went to the Bloggers Bash this year and it was a fantastic day out, as well as a great opportunity to meet other bloggers in person. So I’m very excited to hear that next year’s Bash planning is underway – there were wild rumours about the British Library, Albert Hall and Buckingham Palace as venues, but let’s see if we can fill the whole of Pizza Express at least! Mark it in your diaries, write it on your arm, but whatever you do, save the date! Look forward to seeing you there 🙂

Thanks for the share lovely lady, if only we could fill the royal albert hall! maybe one day in a decade or so!! :p Hope you will make it xx
there were several suspects
were there though? that’s the question. I have my suspicions!
men in beards…. that’s where you”ll find the crme
oh heavens… She goes swanning around, plucking all the praise while the rest of we superciliaphobics have to book a venue, organise the meeting point, find a pub…. It’s not that I’m not grateful; I mean I wouldn’t get out much but for Lady Black’s goodwill but still. Another one?
Lol. I think you’re all going to have a secret uprising and dethrone me…. how dare you…. don’tchoooo know oo I am?! :p lol lol lol
the pantsers are plotting…
Super-what???
Pah! I googled it. Couldn’t find an explanation. Think he’s losing his marbles!
He’s a Geoffle, and a writer. On top of that he’s a lawyer. They make up big words to sound clever. Its probably legalspeak for something! Geoff, enlighten us poor ignorants!
supercilia are eyebrows (in Latin) so a superciliaphobe is someone terrified of eyebrows…
Lo… ooops! Almost! What I meant to say was very funny… and appropriate!
you are tooooooo funny! eyebrow phobia!! that word has to be the title of Ali’s next myth of the ABBAs!!
Thanks for organising, Sacha 🙂 I’d really love to be there! But as I live and work in Spain, it might be difficult to be in London on 11th June, but I’ll write it in my diary, just in case. I’ll know nearer the date. By the way, anyone else from Spain thinking of going?
I’m not sure, but Ali will be back from Ireland. Nicholas Rossis said he is considering it – I am hoping Sally is too. Sarah Brentyn may even hope over the Atlantic to come. Ula is also considering it….So we may well get some international bloggers. I do hope you can make it 😀 x
I’d love to make it this time. Hey, who knows, maybe I will. With this advance I should try to figure something out…
Where are you living? are you this side of the pond or the US side? We would love to have you 🙂
Just on the other side of the channel, in Paris. So I even have a direct train connection that brings me there in 2.5h… I just have to see for the timing and the expense because Eurostar can be expensive. And of course I have to see what changes in life will happen I between.
Thank you!
She could mean you…
Great! You promise to stop talking about my age, and now you’re focusing on my weight!
Okay, okay, I promise I’ll be nice…well, I’ll try anyway 😉
I’m not falling for that one again…
Well, I try my best but something just takes over 😉 But will be on my best behaviour now!
Based on your best behaviour so far, I’m not optimistic
Everyone deserves a second chance or a third, fourth, fifth…
You’re just starting to take the p*@! now
This year’s was fantastic. Next year’s will be even bigger and better. Can’t wait 🙂
Plenty of envy here. Plenty of notice… I think I’ll do it. I would love to meet up with all of you. So much. Also, London. <3 I'm going to plan on it barring any unforeseen drama here. Woo!
You think you’ll do it??? Wait what? You’re guna come???? ???????????????????? really??
Don’t jinx me! Gawd, lady. 😉 I am so stinking excited, I can’t even. Let’s see where I am with my health and my family. I live one day at a time here. I can barely plan something for next week never mind next year. But then there’s this voice saying that I have to live my life. “LIVE YOUR LIFE!” (I think it’s mine. I mean, I hope it is. Geez, that’s creepy.) I really, really, really want to do this!!!
Holy freaking shit if you come….. LIKE OHHHH MYYYYY GODDDDDDD. Just… I…. I can’t. No. Just breathe…. *bounces* *squeals* claps like a seal! There are no words to explain how MUCH I want this to happen. Your health better listen to you and do as its damn told!! ????
Can you imagine the YA chats we will have?! ??????
This is too much. I need to sit down!
I know. 😀 Stop it. I’m totally freaking out! If I jump up and down, I’ll hurt my back and won’t be able to go! 😉 Aaahhh! LOL!
DO.NOT.JUMP. In fact. Sit DOWN. relax. DEFINITELY REST……. move towards a computer……. check flights…. I mean rest…. REST woman! dammit :p I actually can’t. I just…. I feel like a teenager I’m THAT excited. You do realise you made my day…. not that that’s any pressure. No pressure. I know its a ridiculous ask, and health first. Obvs…. but still… if it does happen…. no. STOP. I just can’t. Not yet…..
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK #excited!
LOL! 😀 I’m frickin’ giddy! Freaking. Out. Also, already brought it up with the family. Oh, yes I did. And… If there are any books you haven’t read by then, I could pack them up. *squee!* NO jumping!!! #excited #freaking #IAmSuchATeenager
Loving this exchange and if Sacha doesn’t put you up, they’ll be space chez Le Pard at least to spare you some expense… unless you’re allergic to dogs cats and a tortoise.
Are you allergic to kids? 😉 (You can say yes. I won’t be offended.) Ooh!!! I’d get to meet the animals! I had somehow forgotten about the tortoise though I don’t know how what with you building all that in your yard! Thanks, Geoff.
I wish I could – unless I buy a house before June I don’t have the space :*(

Another Bloggers Bash…. had to reblog – how exciting, the date is already set, imagine that, June 11th 2016, find out more at Sacha Black’s blog.
Heavens another bloggers bash, of course I have to reblog!!! It would be a crime not to, it would almost be as bad as the threat of the man with man boobs. Who is he? Did I miss something? It’s all too much for me Halloween, my birthday, Xmas, New Year, then the bloggers bash. I need to lie down….
hehe thank you Marje, I hope you will be able to make it. When is your birthday? It’s the other Mrs Black’s today!
Yes me too! My birthday is 17th November. Happy birthday to Mrs Black, doing anything nice to celebrate?
Thank you for sharing this Sally. Do you think you might be around in time?
Reblogged this on But I Smile Anyway… and commented:
Great!!!!!
Are you able to make it?
I shall most definitely try to Sasha!!! ?
Thanks so much for sharing <3
I will be making an appearance
How could the funniest blogger in blogland NOT be there… it’s like a MUST :p <3
Funny!
You Brits have all the fun. Damn, I wish I could go but alas.
We wish you could too John. 🙁
Wow, you’ve already gotten the ball rolling!
Well, one of the comments was the lack of time to save the date, so didn’t want to make the same mistake again!
Reblogged this on jemsbooks and commented:
Check out the date for The Bloggers Dash Sacha Black has booked!
Thanks so much 😀
Wow! Looks like plenty of participants are signing up fast. If there was enough interest by those not able to make it to the UK, perhaps some side bashes could be held elsewhere. It could be a 24 hour-around-the-globe-bloggers bash!
I’d come. How do we get started?
Where are you?
I know right!! maybe one day we really will fill the royal albert hall! :p that is a cracking idea Norah – I think we would need volunteers across the globe to do it though!
Maybe we’ll have to see what responses you get from others across the globe, determine the interest. 🙂
Wish I could come. Need to organize one in US!

The Blogger’s Bash is back! You’ve now got 9 months to prepare for it so… like Sacha said – no excuses! I’m excited already!
Thanks Ellie 😀 whoop whoop – so glad you will make it 😀
Fab event – next year I am staying over 🙂
Whoop whoop
Thanks for the heads up Sach. Now, I’ll have to see how many books I can sell between now and then to get me to the other side of the pond. xo 🙂
OMG I WOULD LOVEEEEEEEEE TO MEET YOU, I really really hope you can make it ??
We never know what can happen between now and then. 🙂 <3
That would make my year <3
Mine too!!!!! <3
Thanks Graeme, I do hope you are coming? ps. I hope you aren’t the manboob… if you are you opened a whole world of danger! :p
It’s in my diary, Sacha. All I need now is a venue and a time.
As for the manboob, I’m hoping not if only because I didn’t think I had any – though clearly Esther begs to differ.
Anyway, what’s the derailing story?
derailing story?
You know… Guy with boobs tried to derail the Bash…
Hugely nervous about peeping out from behind my computer screen but I’ll be there, flying the flag for the history bloggers! 🙂
Yay, can’t wait Catherine 😀
That is amazing! I will make it happen to come! Looking forward to more information in order to organize the trip! Thanks for organizing this!
Awesome, where are you coming from?
Liechtenstein. That is between Austria and Switzerland. May people from outside the UK join in?
Last year we had someone from Ireland and Germany. This year there are whisperings from the USA, Poland, Greece, Ireland, Spain…. 😀 😀 all are welcome
Phew, I am so glad! That is a dream come true when so many from so many countries are coming! Yes, I will organize it for sure! I always hoped for such a meeting! It is fantastic that you are doing this, Sacha!
It’s my honour – please do invite your blogging friends to come along 😀
I will for sure! I do a reblog! This is exciting!!! ?
