Following on from the

I propose a bash in Blackpool, on the evening of Saturday 13th November.
A few points:
- This is intended as a bash, not a fly-in. This is mainly because fly-ins tend to be daytime affairs, and I will be working during the day. And anyway, it's not the best time of year for a fly-in! Having said that, of course, anyone who wants to fly in for the weekend is more than welcome, and I can advise you on local flying procedures nearer the time.
- Depending on numbers, you are welcome to crash on my floor for the night. My flat is quite small, though, so if the bash turns out to be very popular I may have to recommend some local hotels. If you prefer a few creature-comforts and would like to stay in a hotel, I will recommend somewhere nearby.
- I will provide details of trains, commercial flights and road links shortly, so not being able to find your way here will not be an excuse!
I will be working during the day (weather permitting), so I won't be able to attend any lunch-time drinking sessions. But that doesn't mean that the rest of you can't make an early start - I'll join you as soon as I finish work.
So - please post below if you are interested. Also, let me know what time you are planning on arriving on Saturday, how you are planning on getting here, and whether you'd like to book some of my floor space. I won't make any definite plans just yet, because it will depend to some extent on what time everyone is arriving and how many of us there are. But it will most likely be centred around the Air Balloon pub, which is in the grounds of Blackpool airport - they serve a good pint, and generally do good food. We may get bus/taxi back to somewhere near my flat later on in the evening.
