Hi all,
I'm planning on being in Florida on 9th Jan 2016. I'm there for a few days on business but as before, the evening of my arrival is the only free time I have. Anybody available for a few beers and SK collecting chat?

Are you going to be in the Orlando area or elsewhere? Either way safe travels!

Yes, Orlando, near to DownTown Disney - This is the hotel I will be at (same as last time for those that I met before)
It would be great to see you Neil!

I was being a bit cheeky.
Nothing has been announced, but some hope was given on the SK message board.
King lives in Florida during the winter. King will be in Bradenton, FL for a John Grisham event on January 19th, 2016. It's extremely unlikely King will sign books at the Grishom event. That doesn't mean a stalker couldn't go to the event or nearby places to hope and snag King for a signature.
right. Man, i missed the Library event last year because of going to Sundance and will be doing the same again this year.

I'll be there.
I mentioned it to sentinel and he'll try to go too.

Yay! thanks guys. It will be probably be a meetup time of around 8:00pm? I land at 5:30 so will be at the hotel for 6:30 - 7:00pm.
We could meet at the hotel or I could get a taxi over to Downtown Disney and meet in one of the bars there?

Shingle Creek isn't the hotel from last year. That was World Center which is closer to Downtown Disney
"One day you're going to figure out that everything they taught you was a lie."
Yes sorry, my mistake. Last year my company held their main conference at Shingle Creek, but as it was filled with customers and VIP guests, employees stayed at World Center and got bused in. This time we get to stay in Shingle Creek.

Ale House on Kirkman is a pretty decent joint with cheap drinks, good food, sports bar atmosphere. There are plenty of other places too. Tilted Kilt has hot waitresses similar to Hooters.
There are a load of places right there on I drive.
Drinking in the Rosen Bar is prolly pretty expensive. Also paying for parking by meeting at the hotel is an issue. I'd suggest we start at some place on I drive like Alehouse and if everyone is not feeling it we can check out a new joint.

I don't really like a sports bar or 'hooters' type restaurant.
I'd like good food and good beer where we can talk and relax.
There is a place at Pointe Orlando called The Pub. It's a British theme restaurant. They have a decent "Pub" menu and plenty of beer choices.
