Think the June date would be better for us, but will try to make the other date if thats what the majority decide upon

Same here. We will have been to the Peterborough meet on the 7th/8th May and may not have recovered by the following weekend

Hi guys
Today we had the estate agents round to value our house - bloody madeness with a £50k differenec between 3 estate agents - how can that be ???- anyway having a think bout it over weekend before deciding which agents to go with and at what price

Anyway - seems that Sun june 12th looks like the majority vote- now just a venue- so im thinking somewhere around / outskirts of Brum with a beer garden - to make the most of all that lovely june sun !!! Kids facilities (oh god thats a wacky wearhouse then !!) and with accomedation should anyone want to stay over (avoids the old "its your turn to drive " senareo) - any suggestions - ill have a think and post ideas

Looking forward to meeting you all soon
Sam John Kieran and Lilli

There is always the White Horse at Balsall Common again but it doesn't have a beer garden. At least they are used to us weirdos taking over their pub after the last 2 meets.

We are going to get holiday accomodation in roughly the area we want to be in for 3 weeks while we find somewhere to rent for 6-12 months. Chances are finding the right property will determine which suburb we end up in. We will then look for somewhere to buy / build probably in the area we have been for those 6-12 months so we don't have to start again learning the area.

So is it gonna be Sun 12th June at the White Horse, Balsall Common ? I know there isn't an outside garden area but the wacky was good for the kids and as mentioned they are used to being invaded
