Dates added - see post 42

Hello,

I've seen other folks organising meet-ups in London and Glasgae, and wondered if anyone in Manchester or thereabouts fancied doing the same?

What do people think?

I know I may regret starting this topic as organising people isn't my strong point, and I'm actually quite shy, but it would be nice to meet up with some of you.

We could do it totally free if we pick a nice day - packed lunch on a park bench lol! Or one of the art galleries, they're free. We could do a knit-in!

Any takers?

    Whew - I'm glad there are some replies - I was dreading seeing no-one at all interested, would make me feel like a right Billy No-mates :rotfl:

    Come on, all you North-Westerners. We know you're out there! There can't be just the three of us money-savers on here!
