I'm thinking some sort of spring pissup, leeds/harrogate based, everyone get there with plenty of time to have a few pre pre drinks before moving on to the pre drinks and finally the drinks at about 7pmish?

followed by dinner somewhere fitting..and shape throwing (damn, picked that phrase up somewhere ) until the early hours..

who's in?

since PistonFest is end of april, suggestions will be gratefully received for suitable dates - how about mid/end of may? should give everyone enough time to moan about getting time off from the family/work/whatever


come on then!

give us your thoughts....

Well after "letting you down" with the barn thing I did say I'd try and cross the border and come on a leeds night. I'll be back on delivery suite shifts so the earlier a date can be arranged the better chance on me being able to sort it (as long as I'm not on nights!)
I'll have hopefully met a few of you by then at PF too

Count me in.

May sounds OK, but can't do the weekend of the 20th (wedding).

In fact, I'm a bit bored now, TBH...

well i'm all for holding it a bit earlier in april that won't be a problem...I think that others may have an issue rearranging their diaries though

Sounds good. How about the 15th?

This is a purely selfish suggestion, as I'm in Biarritz the week after, and then it's PF.

Leeds or HG?

so... so far we have the 7th or 14th of april as a potential date, how do people feel about this? is it too short notice?

shall we leave it to later on in may?

I don't mind holding it in mid-ish april at all, and i'm happy to do the organising

Mid April or mid May are good for us...
Would prefer Harrogate as I am generally not a fan of Leeds - I see enough of it during the day.

In which case either the 8th, 15th or 22nd are OK for me. I may be in a bit of a state on the 22nd as I will be out in York the night before
