DFW Meet Manchester Saturday 28 February 2009

Options
2009????

Yep, it's not that far away folks, so time to think about another meet.

With memories of Leeds still fresh in our minds and hangovers and woo woos only just out of our system, thoughts turned whilst downing yet another jug of cocktail to the next DFW meet.

Manchester seemed to get a few nods from various DFW'ers at the time and it's fairly 'central' within the UK so how about it?

I know there are plans for a London one, possibly October, but this could be a good way to shake off the winter blues by having a great night out in sunny old Manc! (ok, so sunny is a bit optimistic!)

If we make it February, then Christmas is out of the way, there is time to save up, Manchester has lots of cheap bars and it will break up a dull and yucky February.

Oh, and it's Jinky's birthday early February so we could help her celebrate it in true DFW pitcher of cocktail per person style-ee!! _party_

Wadda- y'all think?! :dance:
