    Was looking for this thread weeks ago and couldn't find it....thought I had imagined it, glad that some of the marbles are still in place.

    Weekend 22nd-25th is a bank holiday weekend here and not absolutely sure that I will be around....have an antipodean visitor who can look after himself but have half committed myself to going away for a few days with family.....22nd would be fine but need to check on rest of weekend, it is not vital that I am at meet anyway but would be heartbroken to miss it.

    Trying to think of somewhere that might be half as good as Kelvin Grove.....wheels grind slowly, will come back in a bit....National Gallery might be an idea, think that there is 'open space' there. It is also fairly accessible for people coming on train or by car from NI, or from airport.

    Back later
