The deal seems to be select a location that is fair to all so a poll seems the fairest way!

I'll see what the results bring, and then put up a poll for a date, then someone can organise it!

I've drunk in all of these places but once location decided will openly welcome suggestions:D
 
Ooh, I have friends in Surbiton, depending on what location's decided I might be able to make it!
 
Think all of those are fairly accessible for me!
 
any really ....

Just remember to set your alarm this time!

Ive voted Croydon. Lazy me, thats just a bus ride out of the ghetto. I can do 'proper' Surrey too though. Look forward to it! 🙂
 
Any really as long as it has a convenient railway station and pub. I voted for Croydon as FCC stop at East Croydon; hope of both Nestle and Captain Sensible (ex the Damned). Happy Talk!!!
 
Hmm, depends on where I'm living at the time, probably epsom or guildford if it's in the next couple of months, Both seem easy from the m25
 
Which is the most accessible by train? From Southampton/South coast🙂
 
I'd like it to be woking or guildford as I know I can get there lol.
 
Can parents come too? Not my parents, I mean me as a parent!!
Would love to meet you guys.
C 🙂

All venues look doable for me. Depends on date that's all. On another subject, do i have to log-in twice, once to access the messages and again to post etc,... Am i being a bit thick? Computers are still a bit of a novelty for me!
 
Yes as Steff says open to all, I didn't expect Croydon to be a front runner! And along with Kingston wan't sure if I should include as they both aren't officially in Surrey (according to Surrey County Council website!) It's good lots of you seem to think most are do-able, I was thinking Kingston or Guildford are probably easiest for all transport wise? Lets see what the poll says a week on Sunday.

Rossi🙂
 
Guildford/Woking are both good transport wise, prob Guildford more so than Woking I would have thought. I'm suprised by the front runners too.

Shows how much I know about Southern geography! Guildford is less than an hour away by train from Southampton and about ?23. So I might be able to come depending on when it is🙂
 
Epsom would be my 1st choice, only because I live there lol but voted for Kingston..
 
Guildford or woking would be fab! I think i know Guildford better though. Can also do Redhill or Kingston (i think).

Lol, that made me laugh!! COURSE they're IN Surrey - maybe not in the HEART of Surrey, but yep, definitely in Surrey. However, for administrative purposes, I believe they come under what used to be known as (is it still??) The Greater London Council, which is probably why they're not on the SCC list !!

Kingston, Epsom or East Croydon would be easiest for me, but I didn't put a vote in as I more than likely won't be attending, and if I do, I can probably make it to most places.........

I call kingston & croydon... LONDON.

When I'm back in the coutry, Guildford would be best for me.
 
In my head (don't go there!) Kingston, Croydon, Morden all that lot are Surrey, I wanted to make sure and pick a handfull of the major towns in Surrey and then got baffled by administrative boundaries!

Hey ho!
