That covers a pretty good spread of this island ..... Manchester *and* Leeds ... cool.

H'mm... he's not coming to Sheffield, the two nearest places are Manchester and Leeds (either of which I could get to), but those two dates clash with Uffington.

This means that if things stay as they are, I probably won't be at Uffington at all. We shall see how things pan out.

You're a star, Swindonian. Am tempted to go to more than one and see if I can get that 'hey, didn't I just see you' confusion going on...

Can't help but notice that Australia isn't on the list.

Leeds and Manchester are both fairly straightforward for me (perhaps get reckless and do both !) Hope to see Jon and Claire in Manchester

Tempted to make Jasper an excuse to visit Glasgow again, but it's a looong train journey and not worth doing for less than about 4 days in Glasgow

It'll probably be Leeds or Manchester for us too, and it looks like we have to go back to Abagavenny again, they are insisting as a kind of anniversary.

Edinburgh would be nice, but I've just been back and looked and its Aberdeen or Glasgow, my memory, it's nearly as bad as my spelling.

I've just looked on the calendar, they're all mid week! but I'm hoping to be well by then, and back at work and off on holiday ~:-)

hmmm I could go to them all....

OK, so from our northern contingent, who's going to Manchester and who's going to Leeds? I'll go to whichever one proves to be the more popular, and then maybe we can have a bit of a get-together. These Fforum outings, they're addictive.

Oh, and I should have another box of chocolates from the Chocolate Tasting Club by that point... not that this would bias anyone, of course!

I should like at least one of the signings to be a Fforum Event, with as many as possible of us there, but the midweek nature of the dates makes this a tad difficult to organise, at least for those of us who have to work for a living. I need times, but it's looking like Leeds so far.

Righty-ho, Ben. I'll recognise you, no doubt.

If you're looking for me, I'll be the short brown-haired one looking for random people to bug.

I know, it's awkward, isn't it? I work flexitime, so I can take a day off (though it'll probably mean I end up working Saturday instead), but I realise it's not going to be easy for most people here. :-(

Sarah B - I'm random, you're welcome to bug me... Somebody else can describe my hair colour for you...

Evening kick-offs are what we want. Which reminds me ... if Wimbledon do go bust (and good riddance) I don't suppose that would mean QPR would go up after all?

Wimbledon will just do what Leicester did - go into administration and carry on as before except without any of those nasty bills...

I'm not so sure. There is no way Franchise FC can stay in business unless they move to MK, but without a backer, there is no way they can afford to move to MK ... oh, the irony. Snigger.
