So then, it's that time of year when northern urbs get the urge to meet up for a pint or two (or ten). Being northern, it takes a lot of time and effort to come to a decision as to where and when.
Barleybabes seems to have decided on where for us already. It's going to be in Hebden Bridge, unless everyone decides they'd rather stay home and rearrange their cutlery drawer than visit Hebden.
There's good pubs, the best WMC in the world with very cheap beer, good walks for them that fancy a walk first and excellent train services from Leeds, Manchester and Blackpool so no excuses for not being able to get there.
Next bit is the hard bit. When?
Summer sometime is the vague plan. I'm fancying May or June myself before everyone beggers off on holiday.
Anyone planning on coming stick your two penneth in now and tell us when you can and can't come. I'll do a poll if I can master the technicalities of one.
Posting this a few hours early to stop Barleybabes nagging me to get on with it
I've added a poll with far too many options but there you go.
