Gibbos,
Looks like you got fair amount of interest, as has already been suggested, think it might be time to pick location and date!!

Re: Canada meet up in UK
Hi folks.
great to see the responce we have had, I think it's a great idea for all of us to meet up, and just av a gas
We would have a bit of a problem getting sitter for the kids, so we fancy the idea of getting the adults and kids together, so we can all put names to faces?
How about a weekend soon after Easter, Sat or Sunday, or the whole weekend? Just trying to think where, outside or inside venue? How far are people willing to travel?
I will have a look on a map, mark where everyone is from and come up with some idea's?
If anybody has any suggestions, please put them forward. If it's going to be outside, how about all having a big picnic, if it's going to be indoor, any idea's about a pup?
Couple of suggestions from me, Nottingham, Shrewsbury, good park (never been) Weston Park, between Telford & Stoke on Trent? I am trying to think of places in the middle?
Cheers to all,
Carl

Re: Canada meet up in UK
Hi,
Midlands is good for us, although we live in Shropshire, we have family near Warwick so that works for us, it's also pretty much in the middle of the country.
We won't be bringing our children, they have no idea what we're plotting, and the way they are behaving at the moment, they might not be coming Joke!
I work every other weekend, I can do 14th & 15th April, 28th & 29th April, 12th & 13th May and 26th & 27th May.
Can we do it by then, think I might burst with excitement otherwise
Think OH is having cold feet, so it would be good for him to talk, or he might be residing under the patio!
How about we pick somewhere, say for the weekend, people can arrive and leave as they want, not everyone would want to overnight????
