I'm glad you said "nearly all Librans..."!   I know one who couldn't press a button if his life depended on it, particularly if it was attached to anything mechanical!

So who is going to Liverpool FHS at AIntree?  I am thinking about it and unless there is to be a meet I will give it a miss.  Would prefer to spend money on books hehehehe

I probably will and there are at least a couple of people from the Liverpool FHS Forum who will be there and who I think enjoy "membership" of Rootschat also!

Ok, I'm out of hiding.

My new boss - bad man that he is produced a litre of Sambuca yesterday afternoon at a civilised farewell drinks for a colleague.

He bad man.

Me bad head.

Ok I'll lock this vote on Sunday at around 20:00h - howzat.

Maybe it is my delicate jelly brain but I can't work out what is winning - Chester, Bury or Manchester?

I originally chose the cities as general guide posts i.e. "somewhere near" Manchester.

Dates are harder to come by.  In the past we have given months notice for those who want to get cheaper train/plane fares so we can maximise attendance.

So first question.

Before or after Christmas?

Hi Pam

Hope your head is better now  ;)

For me, after Christmas would be better but not that crucial.  If everyone preferred before Christmas I would be quite happy :D
