    Well, after seeing 'spaghetti junction' I'm definitely not driving. We'd end up in timbuktu or the back of beyond!

    Just to clarify, I already live in Brum so won't be needing to be "roomies" with anyone.

    Sorry mate, was presumptuous of me. Lenny.

    right best say this before we start really planning then you can decide if you will dump me of not :rotfl: i dont 'do' clubs/pubs i have only ever been in two pubs in my life, one on a college trip where were were in the middle of the lake district so the pub was empty and the other is the pub i go to for my cheap meals but the restrant is seperate from the main pub. Now i am willing to 'try' these things out however put me in a loud club with loads of people and someone will have to supply me with drinks out the window :rotfl: that is my worse fear. I dont mind quite pubs where we can stand around chatting/fouling about knowing last years meet but loud clubs is a no no for me. Dont get me wrong if you would like to do that sort of thing you can go ahead i am sure i can amuse myself i am just pre warning you all before i arrive and then make a big who ha and spoil all your plans.

    Well no, this is a valid point. If we want to get hammered and scream at strangers over loud music - then than certainly won't appeal to all.

    If we are going to sit down, and talk to (hopefully) friends at the end of the night, with perhaps a meal and a drink, then that also won't appeal to all.

    But I do think we need to decide which it's going to be.

    Social suggestions - Is anyone wanting to bring kids - if so we could try to arrange something child friendly during the day. I wouldn't want anyone to be left out.

    Well there is also the question of the night-time do - what kind of thing that should be.

    Roomates - If I am sharing with two blokes I would quite like to stay at Malmaison if you don't mind..........Its where all the celebrities hang out you know - and if I am to make my fortune selling my three in a bed sex session to the News of the World I don't want to say 'when we got back to the Travelodge!@':rotfl: how tacky would that be.

    Can anyone suggest a headline please!!

    Plenty... ;)
