The Annual UK International Breath/Body odour Meet-up will be held in London (1pm till midnight both days) on Sept 8th and 9th 2012.

This Meetup has been set up to coincide with the Thames Festival 2012 and is on the closing weekend of the London 2012 Games so it is important to look at hotel costs right now.

Just read the following link and you will see that the meet-up has carnivals, live bands, floats, riverboat rides, international food stalls etc.

We usually get around 20 members coming over the entire weekend and we just chill out and hang out together.

On the Saturday and Sunday, we will meet 1pm onwards on the Upper deck (open air), of a boat called the Tattershall Castle, which is moored on the river Thames around 100 yards from Embankment Underground (Metro) station:-

We will leave the boat at 6pm and in the evening, we will sit on the grassy areas on the South Bank of the river Thames beside the London Eye and listen to the live music and watch the firework display over the Thames. There are food stalls all around and we can sit on the grass and eat/drink.

The meetup is a means of networking with other sufferers, exchanging tips and having a nice time. Believe me, you will learn more from other members than from any doctor or scientist. As a Group, our members are our specialists! They have a variety of experience.

Members usually can not smell one another (since we produce similar chemicals in our odour) so don't worry about other members smelling you, they generally can not!

At the festival I will have my mobile phone with me all day and the number is 07725 912 027 and it is often better to text me (especially in the evening) since the music can sometimes be loud. I will check for texts every few minutes.

Guys, we are all staying in International House, Waterloo, London. Check out this website:-

http://www.londonuniversityrooms.co.uk/

Enter the dates and see how cheap the rooms are...
Single rooms are only £35 per night(!) because it is University of London Student's accomodation.

BUT, book early otherwise all the single rooms will be gone and then you will have to pay £54 for a Twin room.

If you guys have any query, please email me on

We spend the whole day outside in spacious setting since many members feel most comfortable with this. In any case, it's very much an outdoor event.

From 1pm, both days, we sit having drinks on the open deck of the boat and in the evening we sit on grass and listen to live music as we chat and eat.

There is no cost for the actual event as I have arranged it to coincide with a huge free event (The Thames Festival).

People attending need to buy their own drinks from the boat in the afternoon and, in the evening, they buy their food from stalls and sit on the grass and eat.

Also they have to pay for their own accomodation if they choose to stay in London on Friday, Saturday or Sunday night. But this is cheap if they book a room at International House (a single room is 35 pounds per night).

However, rooms will obviously sell out very quickly (because of the Olympics) so early booking is very advisable.

It is the most popular event in our community's calendar and members often come from abroad as well.
