I don't think it matters how many meetups there are. As long as there's a main one where everyone has a chance to meet each other. I'm all for little versions popping up now and again.
But then again, that's maybe cos I want more chances to meet other writers?
It's not that, I'd be happy never to see any of you. 
But I'd imagine Julia would want to go a Christmas one if there was one and I can't afford to do that AND visit Amsterdam. 
) and we will give everyone loads of notice like with the Yielding bash we held which some of you attended so those like me who have to put money aside for transport and lodgings and have to book holidays at the beginning of the year have a chance of comming plus we hope it would also help the more international of you. It wouldn't be anything super special, just a drink and a natter (I am not carting decorations and goodie bags on the train again!), but we do want to make sure that everyone gets a chance to meet each other so we will at least let you know of a date soon after Christmas which is more than enough time to start saving. Until then, enjoy 2009!
