There were many good reason that we came up with after the 4 or maybe fifth pint of lager...
apart from the sweaties it was sortof halfwayish between the Southern Fairies and the Northern Monkeys.
Don't really mind where it is but would be great to have a combined meat for all.
Not sure if we have ever done that.
Love the thought of a Forum Camping Meat but with the nipper that might have to wait a few years :)
York or London - transport hubs that everyone* can get to easily.
Nottingham - arse end of the East Midlands.
*everyone that matters
Yeah but ya see you wouldn't come regardless of where we held it :)
Kenny would make the effort if there was consensus.
We were thinking of somewhere equally as impossible for everybody* to get to.
*everybody that's important that is.
As long as you set a date, and agree to stick to it, before the cheap train tickets sell out then I'll be there*.
*except maybe not this xmas one, due to baby being due around then...
Christmas meats are problematic enough for me these days, what with a spate of birthdays and the fact that my office puts on a hella good Christmas party (or sometimes even more than one).
But even then - not sure I'd want to traipse to Nottingham - London's easier!
The plan was to arrange for the first day of a German Xmas market. They normally start say October :)
Forget Nottingham we choose a venue.
Ah, well that means the cheap seats on the trains will be gone already.
You know, I hear Edinburgh has a nice German market....
I'm up for a meat as long as the travel costs are not massive. I have not been to many northern places but I would rather like a trip to York at some point.
Camping sounds awesome as well, but as you said, gotta wait a few years till the nipper is a but older.
