Hi everyone, :D

You can in me and Worzel. 18th is best for us, on the other two dates we are breaking the news to our families that we have applied to Oz! :scared: Somewhere child friendly would suit us too.

Can't recommend anywhere in the Leeds area as I don't really know it, but can recommend a pub called The Old Post Office which is directly off Junction 38 of the M1 (Northbound) - Take the slip road off the M1 at Junction 38 and turn left at the top, there it is on the corner (can't miss it), loads of Parking, think they do bar meals and they didn't object when we went there with our daughter.

Saturdays are a problem for us unless it is at tea time as I work through the day. Would love to come if we can.

I gather you mean the Old Post Office just off the Haigh roundabout on the way to Darton.....? I haven't been in there, but as you have are there any facilities for under 2's? Maybe a "Charlie Chalk's fun factory" would be good? there is one in a pub called "Calder Island" in Wakefield, which is just off Denby dale Road. Junction 39 on the M1 is on the same road, about 3-4 miles further out of Wakefield, plus on the same road is the Holiday Inn Express for those of you that want to stay over.

Think that's the one, no whacky warehouse/Charlie chalks etc, just a large secure garden with swings and slide etc, although I don't think many people will want to be outside in December, we went during what little summer we've had and it was great!

Hi guys, looks like weve got a few coming already,seem like the dates might be a problem though the 18th seems best for most,lets see who else can make before we decide on dates, the venue sounds like a good option although does it have anywhere inside for kids in case the weather is bad.

lookforward to meeting you all.

leeds wont know whats hit it,tracey. ps would a sunday be better?
