Time for non-South BKP forum get together?

[Ian Price]

I'll be up for this - dates depending of course.

Happy to give people lifts if it helps - Wez, I'm sure I can shoot your way again if you're thinking of going.

[WezV]

oh, that would make things a lot easier - cheers Ian

It will depend on dates, but i think i am up for it

[d1dsj]

Great idea Dave. I'm late in as always but would be up for the drive from the Midlands if we're not gigging.

[Twinfan]

It's no good thanking me folks, we need a Leeds-ish rep to arrange this or it won't happen!!!!

[Ian Price]

we need a Leeds-ish rep to arrange this or it won't happen!!!!

yeah, come on you Leeds people!

[Twinfan]

Right, clearly our Leeds colleagues aren't stepping up to the plate here  :(

Anyone up for another Manchester one?

[shobet]

Same place as last time?

[Twinfan]

Probably, but there's no pub nearby unfortunately.  Unless you know somewhere else?

What about your place in Macc?

[Ian Price]

I'm up for Manchester - dates permitting.

[shobet]

Probably, but there's no pub nearby unfortunately.  Unless you know somewhere else?

What about your place in Macc?

The place in Macc would be just as good I think. The rooms are a bit smaller than the one we used in that one in Manchester but there's more than the one room and plenty of ale houses around the corner. It's got off road parking as well so it may be just the ticket. Plus Macc is on the main Euston -> Manchester rail line as well and it's about a 10 minute walk, from the station to trackside.

Have we got any preferred dates so that I can approach them? Numbers expected may also help so we can gauge how many of the rooms we need?

If people fancied staying over there's a Travelodge right next to the railway station or my local does a limited number of B+B places.

http://www.tracksidestudiosltd.co.uk/ they're open 9 - 5 on Saturdays.

[Twinfan]

Trackside would be perfect then mate, sounds like a plan!

Saturday 16th of October might be a good date, as myself and Martin are gigging with Doppelganger than night at the Swan With Two Necks on the other side of Macc!

[Matt77]

It's open 9-5 on Saturdays. Shobet is looking in to things at the moment.
I was in the pub with him last night and he was well on his way. In his bleary eyed state he has managed to lock himself out of his forum account, so he may be quiet for a day or two

[Twinfan]

Ha ha!

[shobet]

so he may be quiet for a day or two

Quiet! My $%&#ing arse...

Right, room provisionally booked for the Saturday the 16th of October. It's going to be £40 for the room all day.

So now I need to start collecting names of who intends coming. Can I ask that you PM me so I can start collating a list. If you gib out of it with some lame excuse on the day I will hunt you down and do what Matt normally does through ladies letterboxes to yours. Except mine wont be accompanied by that Renée and Renato song.

 

[Twinfan]

:lol:

I'm in mate, obviously, will send you a PM now seeing as how you asked so nicely....
