OK, a few people said that they would be up for a York meet.

Who's still interested, and what are potentially good dates? 🙂

What is York near? If its not far, put me down 😉
 
I thought you meant the Duke of York Public House in Marylebone!!

But seriously get me a date and I'll see, not sure tis a long way! But not saying no!
 
thought it would be longer than 2 hours to York on train from London. Once I know the date I will have a think about it.

Southampton to Waterloo (or wherever?) then across to erm, where the York train leaves from and arrive in York.

Two chuffers and a tube :D

You could always stay over at mine, Sam. I'm sure my housemate wouldn't mind. I'd show you round Jorvik 😉

Oooh, has this now become an international meet? 🙄

I was right about the foreign bit :D Hey, I impressed myself if no-one else. Usually my general knowledge is far too general :confused:
 
But seriously....

Where abouts are you thinking the meet should be?

Just so I can look at travel and maybe accomo I've got a pal in York may use it as an excuse to see the old boy! Dam thats a good idea only just thought of it!! If I drive I could offer a lift for 2 as would probably bring wifey will ask her later.

So when will it be?
 
Well, I would say York City Centre is great. There's plenty of nice historic, touristy bits, nice pubs and bars, shopping if you want to do it. I know a lovely restaurant about 10 minutes walk out of the centre, who'd probably do us ?10 for two courses, and let us book the whole place out (it's only small).

I'm thinking end of March? 27th, just to throw a date about?
 
27th March is that good to go on?

As soon as you can firm it up shout it out loud Becky I'll then try and sort something out.

this wine is luvely! Pizza on way 🙂
 
York's only about 50 minute drive for me, so I'd love to join in and meet some new peeps 🙂
