Can I STRONGLY suggest the York railway museum? It's within walking distance of me 340pw

I can offer floor space in York if we make it here. And there's a LOT of good pubs :)

Steve, car sharing sounds a great plan.

Tommy, 21st Feb is a TBricks meet, I think we should be looking at March tbh, bit of planning time for everyone!
