How's the weekend of the 4th and 5th Feb suit everyone?

Think my wife is working that weekend - weekend before or after is good for me

Alright then, shall we try and actually organise this then, rather than being random.

Name, Location, Destinations Feasible, Travel, Dates

Rob, London, Anywhere UK, Train or Car, Any weekend in Feb

A big 'don't know' to all of it as I won't know what shift I'm working until the week before.
You all arrange it and I'll just see if I can make it when you have.

heh - they wouldn't bother you if you taxed it

Darfion · Jan 18, 2006

Anywhere near Wigan would suit me :mrgreen:

Rob · Jan 24, 2006

So the 11th and 25th Feb weekends look more favoured so far... Any more?

What? and spend money?................

Rob · Jan 27, 2006

Well it looks like everybody so far who's interested is from UP NORTH. So it really does look like Manchester is probably the best area. The Radisson looks reasonable, it's pretty cheap compared to London!

Ooooh goodie! :lol:

What is everyone interested in?

Architechture? Street life? Rural? Landscape/scenic?

I am just south of the area so it would be quite easy for me to recce some locations. (especially rural stuff!)

As an Idea could we meet in the airport or even the aviation viewing area (£3 to get in & park IIRC) and Concord is there too. If anyone's interested in some plane shots the taxiway passes right on the other side of the fence.

From there we can arrange transport to another venue.(any suggestions?)
