right as always we have had some squabbling óver where this years christmas meet will be.
if you are hoping to attend please couldyou indicate below by adding your name to either the Birmingham or London list.
if you could attend either then please put your name on both lists.

basically, whichever list has the most people thats where it will be held.

And for thosewho will complain that its still only june, christmas bookings for large parties like this are needed to be booked well in advance so we need to have at least the basics of which city we are using.

I'll come to a London one although December is looking fairly booked up for me already TBH...

Alternatively Taunton is an excellent venue ermmm

GypsyMoth · 17/09/2009 09:18

why not milton keynes as its central
??

morningpaper · 17/09/2009 09:19

Look if I'm allowed to leave Somerset once a year, it isn't going to be for a trip to Milton Keynes

no offence like

SolidGoldBrass · 17/09/2009 09:32

DOn't mind, but quite like Wimbldeon or Crawley. There's a good swingers' club in Crawley to finish off the night in style...

GypsyMoth · 17/09/2009 09:32

oh,ok then.

will just leave the thread quietly,it was just a thought

Tortington · 17/09/2009 09:34

I think the 'sticky' title just needs to change to 'Xmas meet'

i think there should be different dates for each so that if you can't make one - you could go to another - rather than all on same night.

i might consider b/ham as i have to do my 'nothern' xmas duties around that time.

I might go to the london one just for a drug free mind fuck.

morningpaper · 17/09/2009 09:34

aw I'm only teasing

Milton Keynes is made of Lego though

lowrib · 17/09/2009 09:46

I agree with QuintessentialShadows - why have only one? There's nothing stopping us having a few - wherever there's a demand surely?

And like Custardo says they should be on different dates. The hardcore among you could go to both

FWIW my vote's for London.

Also, the reason London (and, I guess, Birmingham) is a fairer choice than somewhere actually geographically central is that it's a transport hub - all roads lead to London as it were (and high speed rail links / late night transport etc). Somewhere geographically central won't actually be as accessible for as many people, particularly those using public transport.

Buda · 17/09/2009 09:47

Taunton sounds like an excellent plan. I could combine with house-hunting.

Failing that can I suggest Budapest?

Are you really only allowed out of Somerset once a year MP? Is that a general rule?

well milton keynes has actually got good transport,it was designed to! A1 is close by and its on the M1,with good links to other major roads. great train links also.....

very easy to get to,and cheap accomadation.

cyteen · 17/09/2009 10:20

I am tempted to come along either to Birmingham or London, except I'm not sure if I can weather the amount of face such an event will inevitably provoke from DP.

Katisha · 17/09/2009 10:20

I would go if it was in Milton Keynes!

SimplyIsGoingToLearnToFLY · 17/09/2009 10:58

I too would go if it was in Milton Keynes. I could also make it to Birmingham. Good public transport connections are key for me.

Fimbo · 17/09/2009 11:01

Should this thread not be restarted with the p-taking taken out? (I was one).

Fimbo · 17/09/2009 11:03

Ah methinks MN have stickied the wrong thread?

BikeRunSki · 17/09/2009 12:38

I'll join Hecate and VinegarTits in Sheffield, but my last train is at 10.50pm.
