I'd consider being compared to the late great Douglas Adams an honour. I'd be happy with just 10% of his genius!

A chat at Chatsworth?

We did discuss the Peak District, but I think we're leaning towards somewhere quieter and not so touristy. What area are you in Paul?

The more the merrier.

Well the preference so far is the Forest of Bowland. Would that be too far for you Paul?

Nowhere within the North West is going to be much more than an hour or so away for me, since I'm in a fairly central location (~15 miles north of Manchester) so I'll let everyone else decide.

I have quoted 27th to keep the diary clear if at all possible. But then our phones always ring at the most awkward times.
Again, I am easy, Haigh Hall could be a plan

Default North-West meet, Sunday 27th September

Yes, it's pencilled in for last Sunday in September (27th) - see the earlier post from me on this thread. Our first choice option is the Forest of Bowland, but this may change, depending on preferences of those who wish to attend.
